You may be right but I doubt it - Mike has more important stuff ( R&D, order shipping, packing, answering countless emails, dealing with suppliers, phone calls etc. ) than to mess around with painting bodies.... He barely has time to spend at the track anymore. But thats also the reason that this site is the way it is, Pure dedication.

But thats just my .02 cents. ( Not like I'm at his place constantly...) :005:

Inside the body? thats stupid! I havent seen a body like that, but if you want to spend 70$ on worthless stuff , go ahead.
