We just got a few more in at work... although this time they are black w/white roof and silver w/white roof. They were gone in about 10 minutes after taking them out of the shipping box! I didn't even get to take a picture of them because they went that fast!!

I might have to start buying CC-01 chassis and sell them at work for all the FJ Cruiser new owners.

Rig looks good.

EDIT: The new ones don't have any stickers on them, nice and clean shells

I sell them here on RCC, eBay, or other online stores.

STOMPER 1 · 02-02-2007, 09:53 PM

There must be two differant sizes. I just went to Wal Mart and bought one.It is way to small.
When will you get some more and how much.

Looks awesome! Just one question? Why does the title say FJ40? Isn't this a FJ Cruiser? Sorry Franky, just being picky.

Let's see some action shots!

Ya gotta love the CC01

Good question. Wishful thinking on my part?

JasonInAugusta · 02-03-2007, 09:00 AM

We must have edited it at the same time.

Thanks JIA.

FrankyRizzo · 02-03-2007, 09:15 AM

I finally mounted the body on better. Got it running. Holy crap is this thing fast. Definitely need some stiffer springs as well due to the heavier body.

I figured I would put the Touareg's stickers to good use. So now it is the RedBull FJ. I cut the Touraregs bumper and it seems to look pretty good. Some kind of light covers came in the kit so I wanted to see how they looked over the headlights. Verdict is still out not sure yet.

JasonInAugusta · 02-03-2007, 09:21 AM

Try a 55 or higher turn motor.

I put a 55 in mine but have yet to run it.

If I don't like how it drives with just the 55 I'll install a planetary.

Squid121 · 02-03-2007, 09:42 AM

I have a 65 turn in mine and it seems to work pretty good. Lots of torque and plenty of wheel speed.

These FJs are really taking off and looking good!

Scooteracing · 02-03-2007, 01:43 PM

The stock bumper looks good on there.

FrankyRizzo · 02-03-2007, 09:19 PM

Just so happens I have a GD sitting around. May have to break it out and see how it works.

Fun how before crawling stock motors were so friggin slow and couldn't wait to put in a 10 turn or so.

OIT_TLT · 02-04-2007, 12:43 AM

GD-600s and silver can motors in the CC-01s are by far a very good mod. very good throttle control with still enough wheelspeed to have some fun

drumbeater · 02-04-2007, 08:07 AM

Can want to see the cruiser. Call me we`ll do some crawling

Yes they are. Flat black of course.

Would you be a dear and measure the eye to eye length on the shocks?
