I know it is cheating, but what a better way to make a shelf queen?! Finished body, oh yes!!

Knowing me, I will run the car of course.. so it is probably not a bad idea to get a spare body for running.. just run a standard touring car body, maybe... (or Magic Carpet, LOL! )

So the body comes pre-trimmed and finished?

I know it is RWD with almost no suspension, I really shouldn't put too much power to it as it will be a handful to control (spin out)..

But, I think with some help from modern electronics, it might be okay..

Maybe...

I am thinking about running the Neo 1-Star in it to see what it is like.. with the help of Futaba G190 Piezo gyro.. LOL..

Anyone tried this before?! No doubt this will not be legal for racing, but hey, I am just a basher..

Talk about instant counter steering.. LOL!!

CT4L, did you see all the pics I posted at my TLT thread?! Figured you'd like to see those more than the F103GT!
