Well, according to TinyRC, they're on their way... Hopefully soon. I'm waiting for bodies and parts too! The "other" site that supports them isn't very friendly! LOL.

I'm told that Parma makes some excellent 1/24 Lexan bodies...

You can also use Mini-X bodies on the ABCs.

TinyRC... I've got Ricerocketinwa's used Mini-X... the bodies don't fit the DTM I have. Even if I change the WB setting, it wouldn't fit. Is it only certain bodies?
Do you have any idea when the bodies will come in? Since its been raining (rainiest city in the US), I've not been doing anything with my Micro... so I fixed up my DTM... Now all I need is a body.
Can ya help?

The Thunderer, should be this week or early next at the very latest. IRC, I know you've got X bodies on your ABCs, which are you using?

Oh, and the obvious addition that 1/24 model bodies will also work with a bit of adaption, though they won't be as durable.

Actually, I'm NOT using any body from my X on my ABC... the wheel wells don't match -- even after changing wheelbases on the DTM. You mentioned that some where coming in sometime soon and I noticed that the X's got their shipment... anything come in for the DTM?

that means all the other claimed 1/24 scale rc cars are not actually scaled because the abcs fit the scaled tamiya car model bodies.

i meant that since the very well replicated tamiya models are the size of the real cars in 1/24 scale and fit the dtms, the dtms are really 1/24, while the others such as mini x and dynamite rr are smaller and should be more like 1/26 scale.
