Looks great! Do yourself a favor and get these parts:

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXVC39&P=7

they also are made in metal, and more than likely an aftermarket vendor makes aluminum ones in different colors.

get some nose brace tubes, line everything up, and drill some holes in the chassis to secure them. this will prevent you from folding the nose up on the car in case of any hard front landings.

rccarbonworks should be advised to predrill holes to add these parts.

That's looking great, the aluminum Rouge tranny works well with carbon.

Very impressive looking!!!! I have an aluminum houge bell crank I've got no use for, that would look right at home instead of the neon one you're currently using. Other than that, PICTURE PERFECT! Oh yeah, keep the pics coming!

Based on what I've seen so far, that body will look pretty good.

I know its been awhile but I am still working on this build.i did brace up the front end and I just need to figure out how to post pics with what I got to work with. I did talk with dan and he is willing to drill the holes in his chassis so you can brace up the nose plate.

Wow it shouldn't be so hard to down load pics I must be doing something wrong. So now its got the b4 big bores in rear and t4 big bores in rear. I have aluminum front steering blocks and arms. The fronnt it now tied in with titanium from the bulkhead to to trinity front gt mounts. They were not a easy find lol. I have a aluminum diff gear and a robinson idler gear with a losi hydra setup going in. I just got the b44 cvds and some other new parts and I also got yellow rpm ball cups and I am thinking about using yellow jconcept spoke type wheels.
