Is that a VXL ? What CVD ripping system you got in there?

Love how the clear spots on the pro grafx body show off the bling.

I was gonna try to find some base black or tan, since really there's no shortage of military colors. but that paint's doodie for bodies and when i put it on... i LOVED the bling. The CVDs are MIP... were rather. I got Jato shafts on the way.

The original starting project was a base 2405 Bandit. All mods, and upgrades were done personally. the body is a prographix rusty body.

the only things stock are the tx/rx, servo (will be changed to spektrum dx2.0 tx/rx and the high torque servo) top gear in the tranny, they rest have been swapped to steel (idler planetary with steel ring) the spur gear started as a 76 tooth, but i was killing brushed motors, so i bought a 90. And that was the beginning of the end.

Oh yeah you can't forget the antenna tube is stock. lol!

Oh i was talking with a rep at FLM. They are soon to release a slash FLM as well as a chassis kit they call the slasher. It's a hybrid Rusty/Slash. I went FLM once so that's good enough for me. but i thought I'd put the word out. Also she said it should be up by the end of the week Very Happy
