Bought a nice rc10 Chassis today and ended up spending the rest of the afternoon and part of the night in the shop building a second car for the Nats. Here it is I still need to set it up and fine tune the shocks and the suspension, but here it is with an old body.

That 'old' body is a pretty thing to me.
What did you put that carbonfiber in the tub for?

got some wb, thats for sure.
i'm curious about the cf looking shelf too... it doesnt seem to be a good idea for a rx mount or anything.

Cf was there when I got it I am undecided if I like it or not might take it out. The Wheel Base is long, thought I would try a long wheel base car to see if it's more forgiving ( easier to drive) for me. I have the parts ie sterring parts to change it over to a shorter whel base if I needed.
I think it looks strange with the long front end. There is an new style RX mount on the other side hard to see in the photos.

Seems like the LWB would make a car that already pushed too much even pushier...
The car looks awesome BTW. Like the paint!

I would think the quite tight looking VONATS course might benefit from SWB...I know you'll need to drill the noseplate for the steering servo mount if you move the noseplate back. Given the current tech front tires available, push might not be an issue.
