Just run a clear body over it if you're worried about it. |

So that's the new Proline body? I would like to have one of those too. They are just different enough that you could have some really cool "stadium" races. Short course stuff would be fun to run. Nice paint btw, I like simple colors too..... There is so much bling paint that it's getting common. This is the one I want to copy, simple but not a cookie cutter design. It's my friend's 2wd truck "Mean Streak Racing". Last edited by Mule; 08-12-2008 at 01:51 PM. Reason: add |

| Traxxas says they won't release that till the end of the month or first of next. I thought it looked like the proline body..... But, now that I compare it and the proline in the other thread, it sure looks like the real deal. How the HE$$ did he get one..... Man, I'm jealous...

So it must be a limited release to Cali shops???? Lucky you The shops around here seem to get things way after the natl release. I got my Losi desert truck and slash from a little shop in Hays KS about two weeks before they cam in to CO. I'm waiting for the call on my Slayer, he tells me it showed it was going to ship to him this week. The Losi crawler is not shipping till the end of the month, but he's getting me one of those too. Will they fit on a Revo? Last edited by Mule; 08-12-2008 at 04:01 PM. Reason: add |
