With the recent popularity of the Alfa Romeo body style in electric RC sedan competition, PROTOform is introducing their state-of-the-art version called the Alfa 2.0 This all new body has been designed to be most effective on short, tight tracks and low-grip situations such as "rubber tires-on-carpet" type racing. The Alfa 2.0 made to conform to ROAR specs and features a large rear wing that's highly adjustable to ensure good handling balance.

New features making a debut on the Alfa 2.0 are the unique "inner spill-plates" that can be added to the wing to enhance stability. This body is designed to "turn in hard" and "rotate quickly" through tight turns.

It is molded from crystal clear lexan with protective coating, sticker sheet, wing hardware, and a "helpful hints" sheet to help racers find the right aero setup for any track configuration. The PROTOform Alfa 2.0 is for the serious racer who wants to win races!


Features:
· Light durable .030 lexan with protective film
· All-new Alfa design, conforms to ROAR rules
· Perfect fit and proportions for 190mm touring car chassis
· Highly adjustable rear add-on wing with inner spill-plates
· Includes decal sheet, window mask, add-on wing and mounting hardware.

Hideous job on the back end, but after all, it's for racing, not looks. If I were to ever get one (or a Stratus) I would paint it a nice puke yellow to match the style :P

Also the Stratus 2 is ugly at the back but handles like a dream. It's weird, almost all good-looking bodies handles weird but ugly ones handles better ;) :p

.030 lexan? that's thick. I guess it's good for bashing too

I don't know how you could complain about that Alfa from any angle. I think it's the best looking body available that meets ROAR specs, with the possible exception of the Parma MG X-20. It certainly is better looking than ANY version of Stratus, or the atrocious looking Losi Alfa.

Definately is beautiful, but the huge read air dam is quite ugly. Ever seen a real Alfa 156 GTA? If so, you would know how beautiful this design is. I've seen a couple, they are amazing.

I have an RX-7 that had a front wing like that and it got all broken up.
