to me, the question most commonly refers to; stability, control, etc. susceptibility to damage is irrelevant in racing unless your the type to worry about damaging the body to begin with. i don't put a car on the track unless i'm willing to break something. just comes with the territory. aerodynamics at this scale? i think weight balance plays a far bigger role. each body is well, not to much different than a mini-z in that you need to change some parts in order to fit the track width and wheelbase. trackwidth and wheelbase is always an important factor in choosing a race body as well as they both will affect the handling of your car. if you think of dnano's in terms of mini-z's it really fairly simple. you have a selection of bodies to choose from that all fit into preset trackwidths and wheelbases. the components involved differ but the concept has been around for a very long time.
