Thanks .AJ., it"s a Proline bug body for a revo 3.3 trimmed for the tires. The rear bumper had to be reversed to fit. I found this site looking for hex extenders, and now waiting for my RC8T hubs to arrive. Once they arrive, I will be mounting my 3.8 Sweep Racing Road Crushers on it as this will be my pavement pounder. Just bought it this week as I had full set of electronics laying around, and needed a roller. Now has Mamba Monster 2, 2200KV, 19t pinion and Gens ace 5s, 5500mah, 45c lipo. This should be interesting. Thanks to this site and it"s members for your help. Oh yeah waiting for diff. fluid too.

Matt Wallace works for Proline, so I would take his word as gospel

RC Head: I like the Baja Bug body! I haven't heard of anybody else running 5s before so I'm curious to see how it works out for you.

Backyard RC: I am still waiting for a few parts, but couldn't resist a quick flyby on my street. Goes really good, much more stable than plastic 1/10 vehicles I've had. I want to get the wheels on it and measure temps to see where I'm at with heat. From what I can tell, it goes like stink! I'll keep you informed.
