I'd argue that the little lip in the front is the hood and it has a LARGE cabin section.

I'd be scared! I have never seen a walking, talking, picture taking red X before!


EDIT:
And I remember what you look like... you had a huge picture thread one time... I can't remember now what it was, but i remember looking at it! lol

edit x 2: for some reason work is blocking your pic for "Rrated/nudity" lol

They are controlled by people over the Internet. I forgot the site but anyone can do it as long as there is one free.
You see how it is to control a rover from a computer. Its cool if you can get a free one to drive.

They probably turned around and used $2million US tax dollars for these "robots" that are $400 R/C's... and $100 in electronics. Yo Uncle Sam catch this ---->


The US military is holding experiments using E-Maxx with different resolution cameras mounted to them to test how well you can identify enemy tanks through wireless cams... It's in Boulder, they pay $50 for 2 hours of testing (pro drivers only).
