looks great really diggin the color. You should move the shocks out to the outside on the link mounts to give a bit of angle to the shocks so their not vertical.

Definetely lower the stance a little. Seems a little high-

i looked at it today and measured the belly and it is only at 2.75 inches .i made a fuel cell for the rear today i can open one side so i can put my esc in there ,i am still trying to figure out how to make an engine for it i made the block but stil need to make the heads and cast the valve covers.hopefully i can get some cash to order some casting material i want to make the motor out of light weight foam.

Will do man. I haven't been home to work on it, just ordering the rest to get it together. My daughter hopefully gets to go home on the 21st.

looks great!

i think it'll need just a tad shorter shocks on it though..
it looks a lil high..

skid plate line should be just above or around the center line of the wheels.
thats what i found in testing on my southern buggies.


looks good though..
