RE: OFFICIAL TRAXXAS RALLY VXL THREAD!!!!!
TheDriftingNarwhal - I don't think rusting is an issue unless you get it real wet and don't dry it. It does sit lower because there are spacers in the shocks that limit travel. The issue of brush vs, brushless is a personal one. if you think you're going to like the additional speed later you might as well go brushless now. If you're just out having fun and not racing it won't make a lot of difference. Bodies are little difficult. Eventually, I think that Traxxas will have more of its bodies available. Proline and Protoform make bodies for the car. It's 180mm wide so most of the M-chassis bodies don't work. McAllister makes an 18th scale COT Impala,#258, works according to another forum I follow.
