I know development happened before the 93 worlds, and am unsure what exactly Joel had under his modified mid shell. I did have his car in my hands but cant remember as I wasnt really paying much attention to the car at the time. I did know that Bob Gammon and a few of the drivers were messing around with ideas that were very similar to the ZXS open gearbox on the ZXR in 91/92.

I know they made the 95 worlds in Japan with two buggies and one was a one piece chassis and I believe the other was a three piece. Some drivers prefered the one piece as the balance was different compared to the three piece. The two I have are from late 94 early 95, before the 96 selling date.

The three piece won the Japanese nats and beating Masami for the title not long after he won the worlds if thats any help. I cant say if it was 94 or 96 as I lost a lot of my stuff on my HD recently. Hope this helps
