Yeah, rigidity is very important at high speeds. But I can't find any shells that I think are appropriate for my 8th scale conversion, so I think I'll have to make my own. The plus side is that I can make it any thickness I want. If 1/16" thick lexan isn't enough, I could go with 1/8", but that's seriously thick! Even 1/16" is ~1.6mm thick!
