Here is is just a couple examples Liquid mask, exacto blade and several colors of spray. WahLa!

So, not to toot my horn, but the SLASH body has to be my worse body ever!

All 4 corners. Yes I do. But give me sometime to think if I am going to sell any parts rather then start building another SLASH on the cheap...(although all the parts I "Need" to complete another SLASH will not come cheap) So chances are I may sell but may try 1st as a bundle/lot including the black (dye) chassis and RPM shock towers etc... Thanks

for someone who says they can't paint or "Who has time for that"...lol! That MANTA body sure looks pretty good. I also thought about the MANTA body but I really like the realism of the authentic manufacture bodies that are now out (Ford, Chevy & Toyota)

BTW, how do u like the sc4 5.5 motor? I also had a RX8 and a Tekin sc4 5.5 motor and sold it... I dky, but just sold it since I heard all kinds of good things about the NEW Mamba SC 2400kv set up I have now.

Lol that body came with the truck. And I love it! the esc and motor! fan rarely turns on if ever on my esc and I ordered a fan for my motor because it does get a little toasty on 3s. This thing hauls i'll have to post a video of some speed runs this week or weekend.

Question: It seems I am one of the few ppl running 1/8 Buggy shocks (some will say a bit of overkill...But I like em!) while others seem to be running Proline PowerStrokes (Pricey $) or Traxxas GTR's (vitually almost the same price as Proline's). What shocks do you guys like best for those who bash more then run on a track or those who do a lil bit of both for fun?

I have been running d8 shocks on my STRC slash as well, and i do love them over the big jumps, on the rest of the track they are a bit overkill. For bashing id say they are perfect. on a smooth indoor track or carpet they are ok. if your just an casual racer id say stick with the 8th scale shocks.
