I hope not, remember the Aero A-one? at first it was a rip off of an earlier Durango, but it worked, Lee Martin won the National title with it, then they made a plastic tub chassis for it, and it stopped working after that.

I'm thinking metal chassis, plastic side pods.

Plus if you don't get extra anti-squat brackets, roll bars etc in the kit, plus swap a few metal parts like the servo mount for plastic, that would all help keep costs down.

I'm looking forward to seeing it, been thinking of getting a second DEX as a spare car as it is, a cheaper one might fit the bill perfectly
