What do you all think of the new turn around?

Its gorgeous! How is your tranny holding up? I like the low stance. What are the panels made out of?

Well The tranny is holding up great..no problems there. I have had it fully locked awhile now too.
The chasis has about 3.5inchs of clearence at the middle.
The panels are just lexan panels ziptied on. I may go a different direction in color though because I dont like the see through candy blue.

wow so many views and no comments :(

I like this tube chassis from New Era and I'll be ordering their fastback chassis soon.

I am also looking at this chassis or the fastback, how does it do crawling? does it wanna flip over as much as the stock chassis. what length are the shock?

How much does that chassis weigh? It looks cool, but a bit looooong.;-)
