No this is no hijacking this is simply an addition to the demonstration of how these toys can be used when willing.

Awesome bash session I assume!

Makes me miss my E-Revo a bit.

The mods are:
slash 4x4 body posts chopped down, redrilled and screwed back on (you can use the stock pede body posts and chop them down too, I just wanted it super low)

The shocks I had laying around. I believe they are Venom shocks... I got them in a trade a while ago, but they look like venom shocks. They are aluminum and adjustable, so I'm happy with them.

The wheels are rpm revolvers (wide offset crawler). They need to be wide offset to clear the steering knuckles. I actually like the look too. The tires are just standard 2.2 masher 2ks.

72 chevy body (so cool looking).

Freeze, I believe you will like the pede better than the slash. It's almost exactly the same chassis layout: the pede is a little shorter and narrower. It also has the receiver box mounted up front on the chassis instead of middle configuration on the slash. But other than that, it is exactly the same: a-arms, hubs, driveshafts, motor mount, etc. It is small, quick and durable. Love being able to run 1 battery, instead of 2 like in the flux or maxx...

Wow you must have some special powers with that truck tedo, about 5 people suggested Freeze get the 4x4 Stampede and he said no way and terminated the discussion!!! It is very nice though.

I know... I read... silly. I just don't think he had the vision to see how one could be set-up properly. In freezie's defense, he said he saw one locally, and it was probably in stock form which looks incredibly awkward, and the talons are rubbish.

Think I'd just go with a 4x4 Slash roller myself, toss on a E-Savage/T-Maxx body, and get some 8th scale wheel adapters and toss on some small T-Maxx wheels such as Badlands or something.

I do love the lower body look for sure.
