Default Comp body?

Hello, I´m looking for a new comp body. Nowadays almost every body are using Parma Xciter but XR10 body is lower than Parma....So I don´t understand why are people using Parma? Is Parma more beautifull? I´m sure that there is a scientific reason!!! Ha,ha,ha

Please, which one do you recomend me?

Thank you

Be Brian makes one also in the vendor's section. It's all about personal taste.

The Xciter has a slightly rounded roof. This helps with roll over recoveries. Its also a bit shorter but still meets body rules for the class.

The XR10 body yes is lower .... still meets the body rules but has the air foil hump in the roof. This tends to cause the truck to lay on one side when upside down and make recoveries different/difficult. (you tend to do donuts on your roof most of the time)

There has to be something else out there. The exciter is generic, the Derringer and xr10 scream moa and the ottsix body is unavailable in my searching.

My current 70 f100 is destroyed and held together with zip ties so I'm in the hunt for something else.

I don't think there's any rule changes for 2017. Without a rules committee and the man at the helm visibly AWOL, I'm presuming all will remain status quo.

Ill try and snap some mold pictures, still got a clump of clay on the roof I need to sand and shape down. That and gotta change vac table a bit, too much air space for a solid pull down.

Anyone need a couple lexan ashtrays lol.
