it looks a bit 12th scale, the wheels/tires look pretty big.

hard to tell from just a render, but I think it will retain a lot of its durango'ness which is not a bad thing.

body looks nice, looks similar to something I raced last year

I love the way the rear end just hovers!!

Is that due to the reduction of the unsuspended mass??
