Yeah, I'll stick with the stock body, with those really sweet side pod extensions.

The flaps on the body are a PITA.

ya i think i def like the stock body better.as a matter of fact i def like the stock body better. I think a flashier paint job would've helped the look tho.

Def glad I bought another stock body rather than holding out for that. Hopefully Proline comes up with somthing better looking than that.

I like the J-C body but it just looks like a regular ST. The 22T body has A pretty unique look.

The JC body is okay but I have to agree just looks like another ST body, stock 22T body is definitely nicer imo.

Ballcup update!

Went to the track last night and ran new ballcups and studs, serrated nuts, and barely snugged the wheels nuts. I still had rubbing and lost ballcups in bumpy sections. I tried the traxxas slash hex's up front (about 1mm wider) and did not lose a ball cup the rest of the night also no more rubbing marks on the wheel. The truck is a lot more durable now.

I think my radio is set at 110% EPA and each side is adjusted to less than 90%. I've got A LOT more throw I could put into the radio, but with those radio settings my steering throw is maxed out on the truck.

Would be really nice to see Pro-Line come out with a Crowd Pleaser body for this truck. I always loved that body on my T4.

I'm curious of that too. I can't imagine it having a good handling effect by increasing the width of the front tires but not the rear.

Is this the Traxxas hex you are using?
