it needs more curves or something i think...it looks really blocky lacking design. i guess i was expecting it to be sleeker looking or resemble a tube buggy of some sort rather than being so chunky on top...sorry just my .02

...i might change my mind when M_ENERGY gets his here and installed and get a hands on look

I understand what your saying. Im wanting performance over sleek looks. I have comped all over and seen alot of sleek trucks that get on there lids and cant get back over.

The hood would look cool but it gets hung on stuff when your driving upside down.

pretty cool!

I'm wondering why not just use the T1E chassis though? That's been part of my XR plan all along. It's a proven chassis and works great for berg and bully....so why not for an XR?

The link and shock mounts are different on the xr. The mount on the front axle is higher than the rear. This is why rockshow made the front of the chassis taller than the rear.

I'd like to see it skinned and see how it performs. I gotta be honest I don't really like the look of it as it sits. But hey I'm all behind Rockshows stuff, so I'll bare with it for now :P
