I have holes in the windshield area, not to much of an issue getting dirt inside for bashing. If your racing that might be different, if you stay in front and don't get behind anyone you wouldn't have any dirt flying up on the windshield. Holes in the back would also work to let hot air out, just won't be getting as much fresh air I suspect. I do think that a few holes are necessary otherwise you create an oven, your body will just hold all the heat right on top of your electronics and motors. When I ran nitro I didn't leave much of a body on at all, my REVO 3.3 looked like a core truck at the end of a race, I had nothing that resembled the bed of the truck, I cut the body completely off after the cab area of the body, and it still ran hot! Nitro sucks!!! But a few holes shouldn't let to much dirt in and if you are worried, I suppose you could put some kind of filter behind the opening.
