It looks like one of those racing machines from Death Race. I'd love to see old 1/8 scale metal bodied cars going at it in a pit of fire.
Bash em, crash em, smash em!

Oh yeah!!!!

Maybe that was the prototype cab-forward body design. Somebody thought it would catch fire, and we've been looking at fugly buggies ever since.

Please don't run that beauty - It should be carefully preserved. And besides, someone could loose an eye from flying sheet metal.

I think so, too. In fact, I'll make one, and be the first to submit my own embarrassing example. :)

Maybe this could turn into a sticky, I'm sure every one of us has now or had in the past some embarrassing RC builds!
