Looks awesome Bryan. I'd love to see pictures of it mounted.

On another note.. I received the vehicle yesterday. Radio hasn't arrived yet, but no biggie as I used my Spektrum stuff anyway. I gave everything a quick once-over and took a maiden voyage. A bit disappointing at first. Handeling wasn't as good as the converted Muggy I have. Upon further inspection, I noticed that one of the wheels wasn't balanced, and both front shock shafts were damaged. Ah well.. such is life sometime.. right? I modded some wheels to fit, straightened the shock shafts as best I could (going to order some new ones). Finally, I've installed a fan/heatsink on the 152o motor. Not necessarily because it was needed, but the heatsink actually acts as a support for the long motor when turned so that the fins touch the chassis top plate. And the blue color matches the shock bodies and front/rear diff covers. I'm getting happier now..

Tomorrow I'll take it for a spin along with my Muggy (which has an Arc 80mm motor) and compare the two. Should be fun!
