We ran this class at the NOSTR comp today in Akron.

Touring car + pie-pan homemade body = CARNAGE!

The video is uploading.

Cool idea. I'm going to raid my wife's cabinets now and build one!

Sweeet that looks like it was fun.Did it do to much damage to the chassis or electrics.I guess if you put an oven liner pan over an R/C body into a vacume bag you could make a molded allum body with real shape? Never tried it, this gave me an idea.Thanks guys,Wrench.

We used Hefty EZ-Foil disposable pans for the bodies. Nice and thin, easy to form, and plenty strong enough for this:
