RE: Pics
I thought about that, anywayz I bought it and it seems a bit narrow to fit over the exhaust pipe??? I'm either gonna make an adjustment to the body, or figure out a way of moving the exhaust in a bit - any ideas???
Also, as I am a bit nutty, even thought about putting it on my 1/10 car (Not a popular enough car to put name here, but goes like a bat out of hell for a 2 speed 16engine) as I have the 8 ball spinners on it, can imagine it looking s**t hot if i put the body to the floor... Oh, I don't know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Pics
Glad ya like it!
Unfortunatley it's only for show, but I have seen a supplier on an American website that supply them! ut not for the CEN range, HPI I think? Shame though, imagine that?
Also, need a bit of help, if anyone could advise me where to get tougher shocks for my ST2, as I believe mine are getting weaker (UK based firm if poss?)
Cheers

mrarc2002, your choice of shocks is quite varied. CEN make an aluminum upgrade set which I have been running for two years now with no problems at all. If you didn't want those then pretty much any set of shocks for stadium trucks will fit. This includes brands such as Associated, Losi and Mugen. There is also the option of using 1:8 scale buggy front shocks. This will need some modification the the shock mounts on the a-arms though. Hope this helps.
