you are missing something orange now :wink: .

Bit of advice. Don't go to the hobby shop half baked, don't go grocery shopping hungry, and at 2 am she really don't look as good as your goggles show she is :P .

Gotta say I think this is the most colorful build I've seen on here in a long time. Don't take that wrong either. I've wanted to do something along these lines but just run outta time and energy these days to do anything with my r/c. Still trying to finish a buggy for a local trade from October :shock:

for some reason the camera washes out the color of the chassis

in person it matches the original chassis sold that were neon green as well as the neon red front's sold back in the day

iths actualls starting to grow on me
the suspension is like butter and i can drop it from waist high and get no chassis slap

i just wish the dame side bumpers were white

i had it with me at the lhs the other day and the entire store was ohhhin ond awhing over it


i neeed to get one of these for it
