The chassis is just primered, thought I would be nice and not paint it since the chassis will be in the "For Sale" section here soon. The lucky new owner can paint it any color they like  |

I saw a picture of a rock racer online somewhere, it had the chassis painted red I believe...kind of like the rig on the main page for the XRRA site.

| new owner
well, ive got some good news and some bad news. first the good news, this build will be continued but by a new owner...me. RD400 asked if i would continue the build thread. secondly this rig might not be getting txt axles. we'll see i haven't decided just yet. i'll make my decision when the chassis is delivered to me. thats all ryan |
