niiice. I like it real clean man
Thanks, I like the clean look especially the wires and hoses. The black hose running into the radio box hides the Killer Bee kill switch and the Temp wire.

are those redcat arms? didnt know they werre available for the rally. it looks awsome! what tires are those?
Yes, They are Himoto arms and hubs for the on-road. I got the set of 4 tires w/ rims from Seben racing off Ebay for around $80. They suck, but the rims look nice. I'm going to stick with PMT from now on.

very nice dude i might have to pull mines off and mess with it alittle more. i need a car to try wet nos in anyway i wanted to try it in my drag baja or pick up another fg baja but the rally might work. i got to look into custom gears this week i just don't feeling like waiting a few weeks
Thanks dude, You should make a trip out to Queens, NY. We have a lot of people racing the oval track from MCD, FG Marder full drag and around 8 FG sportsline. The fastest guy is doing a avg of 65+mph w/ a stock 23cc and single gear on a sportsline.

Okay, it's already been asked. Aluminum arms, steering hubs and tire and wheel combo? What do they fit?
They are the Himoto upgrade parts from the catalog, same item number. I got it from the seller that was selling the metal gears from Hong Kong.
Just don't get the rear hub cause they don't fit. The upgraded rear hubs have a offset for the shocks, so they should have a right and a left. But they only make one side. It will be clearer in pictures when I show you later.

Also noticed in your pics that you figured out as well that removing the driver's window allows you to turn on and pullstart the car with the body on. This made me so happy when I do it.
Yep that works too, but the main reason was to cool down the engine.

I agree that is one clean build. like your detail . Siderails , fuel line P clips , etc..
Thanks for noticing the detail.
kryptonite said:
ya, like sprint said. its the details!! its just a redcat with a few bits of alloy and a sweet pipe.. but what makes it so incredable is the detail work; fuel line mod with the sweet vent tube, fuel line over the kill switch wire, super clean custom pipe mount, p-clips with fuel line clamps and the custom side rails.. wow. i cant believe this your your first!! cant wait to see what else you come up with.. nice job
The next mod is front disc brakes and little mods here and there, that should be it. Then, hopefully sell some of my fishing reels on Ebay and get myself a 08 FG EVO with a BMW M3 ALMS body.
