Help me choose a new body - 07.14.2008, 02:43 PM

Well, its that time again. Time for a new body, it sucks that this:



only lasted 3 months. :( The rear end it ripped off, 6"-8" long cracks, and the body holes are now huge and useless.


I'm looking for a new body, I'd prefer not to get the desert rat again, and I also would prefer not to get the vxl body since its kinda thin. I dont care if the body for for a totally different truck, i just need a new one asap (my rusty is currently running naked!)


I will spank a nitro any day...guaranteed. :)

The J-concepts bodies seem pretty heavy duty.

These work well and are very cheap basher bodies!

I've though about using that, but I really enjoy paining bodies as its the only form of art I'm good at.

was just recommended to me on the Traxxas forum. Unless I see something I like better, I'm going with that one. :)
