Awesome! You should love that Reedy Sonic, I have one of the 6.5's in my 4wd car. I can't tell you how much I.have enjoyed racing with my son this winter! I hope you get the same!

Will do! I ordered everything from tower in two seperate orders to get the maximum discount i could and the buggy and the servo i ordered are coming from Nevada and will be here tommorow and all the other stuff is coming from there Chicago warehouse and will be here next week. So i will build the buggy this weekend.

Am I the only one who always springs for the 2day shipping option from tower?

Got me one of those 4.1 worlds coming myself. I'll have to keep an eye on your build and see if I can pick up some tips.

I got it yesterday now i just need to find time to build it! I really do not like the cab forward body it came with though so i will get something different!

Is it the proline bulldog? That one is really bad looking on the 2wd- the Jconcepts finisher is nice though-

I'm thinking Protech 6016 if I can make it fit

I agree Mike. That bulldog body is butt ugly!
Will be interested to see what the JConcepts body looks like on your worlds. Probably gonna bite the bullet and get that car too.

I am one of the few that seems to like the Bulldog. I think it works on the buggies but the stadium truck body is just gross. I built a FT B4.1 last year, it's a great machine. You guys will love it.
