Well, it looks vintage anyway
Finally dropped cash on a newer buggy a little while back. Picked up a Centro C4.2. Exactly a week before Associated unveiled the B5. Anyway, there is no bodies for the Centro that aren't cab forward so i improvised. Doesn't fit to bad actually. Running a stubby savox servo, Shorty lipo, some aluminum front standoffs that I made along with an aluminum top shaft and MIP pucks system. Shaved alot of weight there. Along with an aluminum turnbuckle for the rear chassis brace, aluminum front FTB4.1 front axles, the standard B4 slipper and the 10mm V2 shocks its about 10 grams under the minimum. One race with it so far with the ugly body on it. Absolutely love the car. Hoping to get some track time in this weekend with the new one.

Nice improvising, that should have a few guys at the track saying "Huh?"!

It does look good, though.

I like it! Way better than one of those hideous cab forward bodies!
