What I have done is:

1. created a chassis to change the 1/10 Slash to 1/8 size
2. the chassis is LCG, which greatly improves handling
3. the chassis accomodates the MMM and Velineon ESC's
4. can hold 2 batteries and positions can be adjusted for different sizes
5. gives someone the ability to convert their Slash to 1/8 rather than drop $500-600 on a new vehicle

And, most important, it's BIG and it's fun! Overpowered? I don't think so. I've had a blast with it so far and it handles nicely. Oh and it is fast. What's not to like?
It was just my opinion, I would get some 8th scale buggy tires and throw on there to get the wheels the right size.

didn't see this when it was made, but last I looked 1/8th buggy tires, are the same size as 1/10th SCT tires give or take 1mm. I got 2 diff 1/8th buggy tires types(can't remember brand or style as its been a long time), and a set of HPI Maxxis Trepador Tires on the one set of buggies the buggy tires diameter is about 1mm larger, and comparing it to my other buggies tire the buggy tire is about 1mm smaller.
