over at RCShortCourse.com, they are converting buggies and trucks into SC Lite type vehicles, using SC10 rear wheels/tires on all 4 for the B44 and other builds, some pretty neat stuff.

Yea, TT and AE are one in the same sorta, however, IMO It falls more into the HPI RS4MT category. Its lacking the narrow wheels to be a SC truck.


Having seen some of the SC stuff out there, It has got me thinking about the older HPI Super class and the bodies that go with it. It might be fun to convert my B44 into a larger scale Rally car!

A rally car would be cool. I was also thinking about a 4wd dune buggy with a roll cage. Then again I was thinking it would be cool to have a roll cage for my RC10 sand buggy.

Something similar to these ones http://rc4wdstore.com/product_info.php?products_id=816
