Re: My First Project Traxxas Bullet / Bug ?
Awesome Build,
I ran mine with a 19t modified motor and it held like a champ.
Don't worry about shock tower and the narrowed bulkhead, they will hold for sure, I did the same exact thing for my VONATs Bearhawk, and it held strong through out 4 qualifiers and a very competitive A-main.
On my project, I used a T3 Bulkhead and the Bullet arms and it gave me that nice front width.
I'm kind of sad that I sold mine...

Small Update
Thanks tecnica2001, The front of the Bullet is built like a tank.
I have done a few things, Got the new body and used House Of Kolor Perl Orange, Also added some accessories.
Comments are welcome

Looks splendid, including what's under the shell.
I do have one small suggestion: maybe you could hide the lack of motor in the boot by standing the spare tire between the bumper and rear of the body.

Thanks Guys,
Im planning on either buying or re-creating a motor to put in the back, I like the motors Ebay user jeepcj81 builds, they are not really scale but very nice. I might try my hand at building something like it as i come across parts.

Hey Air,
The tires are called 900027 Carson 2WD All Terrain Tyre
My understanding is that they are only sold overseas, I found a person that had them in the US NIB and got them from them. The wheels are original Traxxas Bullet.
