Thank you, yea the bulletproofs came with it. Thinking about the FLM shock towers and LST shocks but am going to wait and see how the stock shocks hold up.

Should be a pretty potent setup. Funny though, I asked about putting SC bodies on MTs a while back, they dont look too bad really but I decided against it in the end- personal taste really, but if it fits alright & clearance isnt an issue... happy days

That body is the JConcepts Dare for the Slash. Put it on cause it was sitting collecting dust and thought it didn't look too bad. I also test fitted a friends JConcepts Bajr body and it looks pretty cool too.

I actually got to run this beast today, found the sweetest bash spot, will be able to run my Baja there too. Still pumped up from running it, was great. What I need now are two more 3s packs so I could have run it again before it got dark.

Body was good, no issues, truck ran flawlessly. The Castle/NEU 1520's are beasts. All I can think about is running it again, got at least 30 minutes and was grinnin the whole time, my face hurts.

Looks great, but to be a short-course truck, you need a body that covers the tires...like a Baja 5T body, but at $150 just for the body, the $24 Slash body looks perfect!

[1] Man, that body is awesome looking, I really like it...I might have to get one for the Revo!

[2] Wow, even though the Slash body is 1/10 scale, it absolutely dwarfs the Ten-T, which is also 1/10 scale, and it wouldn't fit the Ten-T to make an SC truck at all, the Slash body is just way too big! It's no wonder the Slash is damn near the same size as the 1/8 scale SC trucks like the Associated SC8!

Yea, I didn't realize just how big the Slash was until I saw one in person!
