Looks great! Really digging the Reign chassis.

I think it is too.
Came out really, really nice.
Had to do a small amount of fabbing but it went together quickly.
Still have to get a new proline body cause nothing I have fits it very well and is still in a 70% condition.

From the short amount of testing I did, it is the most capable rig I have driven as well. I like the small size for agility and the tires work incredible. It turns on a dime, has stick like clearance, flexes very well, (I had to limit it a bit) and should do very well this Sunday. In fact......it will likely win the Super class!

Hey, sorry to be somewhat off topic, but what else can you say about the tyres? I'm thinking about using some on my clod.
Nice clod, too.

Looks good man. Even has good center clearance with the smaller tires. I was looking at those today, sticky. Nice build.
