rear skid plate



front skid plate



I like to use the silver wheels but



my wife love the gold one, so what to do



thanks for looking

Very nice.

I must say I never had the SRB on my list . Funny a Rough Rider was the very first buggy I've driven back in the early 80's.

I'm not a fan of the gold wheels. Maybe because the gold is a "dull" look not a bright gold.

The silver looks alot better in my opinion.

A nice SRB all the same ...

Silver is the way to go!!! Now tell us how this thing runs

Same here I love the looks of silver wheels.
But inside our house is always a due process decision and who paid the bill have the power. So gold wheels it will be . (For time being to make her happy).

I used to run this with tamiya stock motor (silver can).
Now i have a doubt if the silver can, could move this buggy due to weight issue (after I installed all the metal parts). I might install a black can motor and let see
if my stock esc can handle it.

That's sick. Like the upgrades. Nice photography too.

Fantastic photo shoot and an absolutely lovely car!

Thanks for the kind words

Just thought you should know your build inspired me to do my own build. I'm almost ready to try and run mine.

That is cool thanks!
Your DF03 slipper on your build catched my attention and I might adopt it as well.
