hi,took her out today in the rain (so no vid , too dodgy with my new camcord) went really well, stuck to the track like glue, neeed to sort susp gerom out and stiffer srings or dual shoxs
weight wise ( are you sitting down) 14.66kg 32.6 lb:helpsmilie:my shoxs
 
it surprising how realistic it looks when the suspension has to work rather than pushing the buggy off the ground, you see so many just bouncing around trying to drive at full speed down the straight were they have wound the springs right up

Yeah, when I used to use my HPI RS4 Rally I set the suspension up a bit softer than normal so when it was hitting small yumps the wheels were bobbing up and down in the wells....looked great!

Mr fabrication extraordinaire! ;)
Have you got anymore 180DEG bends mate? I've got a manifold plus FG Tuned pipe but don't have the 180 for it!
