I put an Intrepid Body on my TL01 and it fit, except for that the wheels were slightly recessed. Thicker Nascar Wheels hsould solve that.

If you do this, take out the driveshaft, and make it RWD, apparently it flies.

what does recessed mean???? o and thanks so it really goes faster in 2wd mode?? will the handealing suffer??

Why would u wanna run with no FWD???? I mean you cant turn worth crap with a stock TLO1, so think about what will happen when the front wheels dont stick to the ground. I personally own and have raced my tricked out TLO1 and i once lost a drive shaft during a main. Well i ended up losing really bad cuz i kept pushing, and flying into the boards. So i would not run w/o the drive shaft, also i so very little if not less of a speed gain, its not worth it into my opinion. Try it if u want, maybe u'll like it. :confused:

Recessed means that the body sticks further then normal from the outside edge of the wheels in this case. Normally you would want the outside edge of the wheels to be set in somewhat to scale to what a normal cars wheels would, almost flush with the inside edge of the wheel wells.

For an oval car, you want RWD. And yes, it does go faster in only RWD
