Interested to see how the Hyperdrive belt holds up with the brushless. Always liked that setup.

Where can I get one of these bodies? I have been looking and must not be looking in the right places as the search for funco tuns up nothing.

it's a mrlexan repro that ive had for years.

im torn... should i paint the funco pink, or camel yellow?

im leaning toward camel yellow... pink is cool but i think the camel yella with the boxart stickers will get me the boxart look but with a more unique body.

How about both colors? Maybe a cool design that incorporates both colors, and the box-art decals

step away from the camel yellow..........

im not the luckiest person when it comes to painting lexan bodies. i make dumb mistakes or dumb things happen...

ill look at what colors i have. i was totally committed to pink but now i dunno.

ive put off painting this thing camel yellow so i dont dissappoint scr8p, but i dunno... i kinda want to paint it camel yellow and do the boxart stickers.

i fear trying to mask out a design with mulitple colors will end me up with a mistake somewhere and a neat body that ill regret making said mistake on.

What shade of pink were you thinkin?

How about the shade of pink that the stripes are done in and then camel yellow over the pink stripe or a combo of the stripe colors bordered by the stripe?
Or, maybe invert the camel yellow in the 'white' area on the side where the "10 TEAM ASSOCIATED" is and camel white where the camel yellow is and use the boxart stripes?

p.s. scr8p wouldn't even pick me up a can of camel yellow and send it to me

not a friggin' chance.

I'm lovin' the mix of old and new parts! I'm curious about the HyperDrive setup on a BL. I have one on my runner and so fars it's held up with a 27T brushed. The sound of the old belt-drive is so cool.

And finally, a pic of one of those S&K bumpers actually out of the package! I was always going to get one but I never knew what they looked like bolted to a buggy.

i got a set of wheels with sprinter slicks on them, tomorrow if im not obsessing over granturismo 6 ill take it out and flog it on the street. it sure feels like the hyperdrive will hold up to 2s.

sk bumper is cool. but i wish it covered up the entire underside of the kickup and not just the first two bulkhead screws.

haha, NO.

How about camel yellow with Camel cigarettes livery
