Looks great. Looks neat with those adj. front arms. Nice looking buggy
If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

Nice Fox, very trick! Looks like a lot of very sensible, thought out upgrades. I'll take that over flash any day. Nice work!

I second that, very good idea.

I always liked the Fox in red paint as well.

Hi all,
Sorry for not replying earlier,the Fox was put aside to work on other projects.
Just started this week looking a different wheels to put on it,unsure whether to go for white dyna storm fronts or black astute one's.
The back wheels are proving more difficult,as most rear wheels won't fit due to the offset of the wheels.
I've tried using hex and hotshot type adapters but they need to be modded to fit,although i've a set of wheel for an rc10(dark blue)than i might try.
Really the best solution is to change the drive shafts which would open up lots of wheel choices.
Will post some pic's soon.
If anyone knows a cheap drive shaft solution please let me know!
cheers Peter.

Pargu's aluminum Fox wheels look very nice. They would fit your scheme well I feel.
