Long wheelbase, as I wouldn't have room for the steering servo otherwise. I see yours is short. Did you cut it down? I don't see the extra holes in your nose plate for the long setup. I assume you had to shorten your nose tubes as well, since the long setup is the "normal" one for the truck.

Yes I trimmed off the extra material that would of allowed for the long setup. I did also shorten the nose tubes.

I'll be using the Turbo Mirage body on it together with a B5M wing.

Got the body and wing trimmed up and fitting good. Now for my absolute least favorite part...the paint!

Hi,
It looks like a buggy Team Associated should have released!
Good work, any ideas for paint colors?
Cheers, Dave.

I'm not sure whos car this is but I did find this Losi on this site.
I love the color scheme and want to go with similar colors. (The blue and white one)

I finely got my body done up and I think it looks great. Get some decals on there and I'll call her done!
