Ok I'm totally stocked at this point, now it’s time to install the rims and tires and the wing on this bad boy,
Yes I went the easy route and just purchased a set of buggy wheels with Bow-Tie installed on them already.

Wow my first impressions of this build once the basic build is complete is (wooow this thing cute!!)

Ok Now that the basic buggy is complete minus the motor and ESC (something just doesn’t feel right??) sure it looks good but lets do some comparison with it competition, AKA the GR3 E-Revo.. Wooow the differences are huge!! I hate to admit it but my first impression is my E-Revo will dive over this buggy and wont even bother looking back, What am missing here??. It’s a 1/8 scale same as my GorillaMaxx but it’s shorter, lighter and just feels / looks like my Meu 1515 !.5 ys will rip a hole in it!?? there is no way in hell this thing will last / take the kind of punishment I thought / hoped it would..

Team, am I missing something here??? It’s is truly stronger and handles better than I can imagine?? As stocked as I'm with this build it just feels / looks fragile compared to my GR3 and my other builds..

Shaun.
