looks pretty good bud. Might I make a suggestion though? Cut the fenders off and slam that body down. It will really help squeeze through the tight spots and also it will make it alot easier to get back on its tires if you flop onto your lid. Other than that I really like what you have going on there.

no problem. Just remember that comp rules straight you need it to be at least 3" tall and 12.5" long. Other then that just do what you gotta do to get it down and clear of the tires.

I really like the paint scheme. And I am going to have to agree with bigflex it does look pretty tall (body wise) compared to most bug bodies on axail based rigs.

Did you have to cut into the motor area on the back?

Awesome well good luck! Post more pics of the comp.

I won't be making our next comp due to my stripped tranny gears....
