My 2016 fall/winter ride. TA05 based HPI C6 Corvette in C7 livery. Thanks to Skunkworks Designs for the scheme.

A few pics of the new protoform Ford GT that I painted and detailed for a friend of mine(Skunkworks Designs). Good luck at Nats Kyle!

I know this was an old post but does anyone know what the part# of this body was. Trying to find an old stock unit somewhere.

I don't see why not, it's on the Roar list as the USGT rules state. And it's 2s 7.4v hard case correct? That's my interpretation of the rules.

Hey guys, has anyone used a body from "The Build" rc? They are the only ones that make an Aston Martin but the wing looks obnoxious. How are the bodies though?

Thanks for the info. I might give the Aston a shot with a Gulf paint scheme.

Their bodies are from MatrixLine. They are nice bodies, similar in quality to HPI.
