Well I finally finished the painting the beetle body. I am very happy with how it turned out for my first paint job. I kept the spoiler dirty to show you what the rest of it would have looked like after its first bash with the body on. It was on its roof 30 seconds after I had my first run with it LOL but not a mark!

Tell me what you think. :)

yep back on its wheels, back on full throttle LOL.

I ran it for about an hour and a half last night at the track. had a ball. There is on tripple hump jump that I really wanted to clear, prob is its right after a 180 degree turn so hard to get right.

Stayed on the gas last night and hit the jump, back wheel just touched the third hump and sent it into a cartwheel. 8 rolls later it lands back on rubber and I kept going. Man I love this thing! Nothing broken or damaged! :)
 
thanks Rossco, I am really happy with how it turned out.
