That's funny I was just looking at the raptor body. Think I'm gonna stay with a buggy body but go big wheels

Hey rustler,

With the proline wheels and tires you run does the chassis still hit the ground? Or better yet with the buggy sitting on the table can you push down on the chassis and make it bottom out on the table front and back?

I like to jump a lot and I want to get these wheel and tires but if the chassis wont slap the ground then I will be breaking some shit for sure.

No idea on servo and batts just got back into this after years. All input is welcomed.

I have the atomic alloy shock caps. Took forever to get here and the front ones scratch the second your buggy flips on its lid. Other than that I dig em. Wish they came in different colors.

I think I'm gonna upgrade the shocks all together since I'll be running 1/10th wheels like you.

The stock shocks seem like they would be great for a track but for what I want to do I'll need more
