I got to ask, what body is that? I'm assuming Kyosho, but please confirm. Is it a hard plastic or Lexan?

Aloha, this is Jeff "1BADJEEPBRUISER's" Stepdad, i helped out with the exocage. Nice to see it in Hawaii! My Dad lives there on Kauai. I will be there next Sept. for a couple of weeks. Last time we were there, we hooked up with some guys on Kauai that were dirt racing behind the golfcourse in Lahuie close to the airport. What island are you on?

That would be cool!!..YEah the exo is probably one of the main things that make it seem so "real"...I love it and alot of the homies here do too!!..HRCC members are all residents of O'ahu...but im from the Big Island. Although i am living here at the moment for school. If you guys come down dont forget the rigs!!!!

O come on guy, give the brotha a break When you go in sept, ill have to lend ya my 2.2 comp rig so you can keep up with these guys! Either that, or you need to put the rock bull down and build a damn 2.2! Either way one of us better be crawling over on the islands, although I would rather it be me then you! Ill just have to ask "mommy" if I can go too!

Damn dude, this thing keeps getting better and better. The new wheels looks GREAT.

I run BLKFT stubbies on mine, it gives it just the right width...The tires would tuck better with out them, but as Im sure you discovered, the only draw back with this thing is the COG and it can be top heavy so having the lil bit extra width makes a huge difference , here is the best stance shot I have of mine



You can see the tires are still under the wells
