The talking bag of douche made the video almost unbearable, so I put it on mute, much better. Nice rig!

I have seen a black one near me regularly and it looks awesome! I have also seen a yellow one although it was a little too yellow for my taste.

Even less scale, but I read that they are also coming out with a wide version for the SC trucks. I'll probably get one for my SCRT10.

If the race it in the Baja 1000 Stock class, they're going to have to go against Rod Hall's H3. That should be interesting.

But yeah. JConcepts makes the SC body for the Slash+Everything else, and Parma made the original "Official" Raptor body for the Slash.



I still want Robby Gordon's Dakar H3 body for the Slash.

Is that the Parma or JConcepts body? I looked on Parma's site, but didn't see it listed there.

Parma made them for Traxxas as a promotional item at some Ford events. Traxxas was giving away/selling Slashes at those events that came with that body.

That was the only way to get it.

I think some people said some Ford dealerships had them as well.

Apparently it came in orange and blue.
