Here's a good example, last year in the tbtc class 2 midsize wagons ran, I'm pretty sure both were built close(didn't check dimples/notches although I did notice one was notched about 10 inches from the tailgate(guessing end of shock), with roof bubbled) and the one in this years stock class was strictly double dimpled. I checked out the one in the stock class this year and it had identical size dimples that weren't deep enough...it plowed. What all 3 had in common though Is that they took a pounding to the rear, and I was impressed with both of the tbtc heat cars for the abuse they took(hump plates went a long ways). IMO these would be an excellent car to take to a show where you had front kickers, a arms forward plated and allowed leafs with a hefty cage and GTP. Plus tilting these to get rid of the s curve seems to be slowly catching on so I see a lot of potential in them for the "right" ruleset. isnt any car alomst excellent with these rules haha....

well, when you can pick up midsize GM's for a half/third of the price of most other old iron(around here at least) its a big bonus. lol

very true, the price of a roundback is riduculous over there. you could get a handful of these for that price....
