Actually I think it's 1/9 scale... anyway, I don't think it would work well because it's 2wd. I have a nice MBX6 I'd sell you cheap or if you want to go electric, I have an ECO I'd sell that you could convert. Talk to me. I'd even consider a trade for the KYO BUG.

Default On road gathering this saturday?

Looks like we will be running on road this Saturday at our new site at the Timothy Street Baptist Church next door to the off road track.

I have to work Saturday, but Julio Jeff and the guys should be out there.

We need to blow the parking lot off real good because of all the little stones that can get hung up in the belts and gears of the cars. We will need you to bring your blowers saturday. This will not have to be done every time we run there. Bring a broom if you don't have a blower.

Do you think that would void the warranty on a lipo?

The losi is pretty easy. You can buy the Late model front bumper and body mounts. I'm pretty sure they have spring kits too. You could go all out and buy the shock towers.

Actually I'd love to help you with it. PM me your number and we can get together and build it.

I bet it would be a cheap conversion. 350 would be a great motor for it.
