Thats funny, If it wasnt quite so tall it might actually look good.

Great Idea but bad design.IMO


Looking closely at it if it were mounted a good bit lower it probally would look a good bit better.

Slam it down and it will look good

Probably not a bad move at all. People love tubers.

Yeah, it probably would look better mounted lower.

And I like tubers too, but never would I buy a plastic imitation of one.

Better,but still needs to be lower. Put the top of the hood down below the tops of the tires. Thats where I'd mount it if I ran one.

WTF are you guys talking about?

Pro-Line KNOWS what they are doing. This just shows that you guys are NOT into the 1:1 Toyota scene.

Formula Toyota class anyone?




Pro-Line body..





It's just another way that Pro-Line can attract the 1:1 guys into the RC world of Crawling. Open your eyes before you look like a fool.
