Hi Larry,
The EVO 5 (427 body) uses 275/17 x 9 fronts and 315/17 x 10.5 rears, I believe with Track is 57” for the front, 58” for the rear. Wheel base is 90”. I'll check the track measurement on Monday. We would change this for the FIA body of course as well as make some modification to the front and rear suspenion to allow for the knock-offs and shorter track.

I think ERA & others have proven that the correct body & modern suspension is a winner. I would say that so long as everything looks accurate & has "the look/the attitude" it will be a hit! As an FIA & 289 fan I personally can't wait to see the the model you end up with.

Thanks Mike!
Definitely agree with Hyde that a modren suspension and accurate body is a winner. Kirkham as well as ERA have proved it.
