@LB - but there are rocks! Stones! Pebbles! Big mean ants! I guess I'd just feel like, with that chassis, you'd be even more limited than a TC - and I really felt limited with the TA05. Maybe I just ran in crappy parking lots. :P
@ Lee - ah yes, right - I do recall seeing your track pics. That would be ideal for sure...

You can run them ants over, Eman! No problem!! 
But then, if ants would scream.. maybe I would think 2x before I ran them over by accident when driving my RCs...

....can I jump it off of a skateboard ramp, a 20ft jump, and not break anything? How about jumping my house with it? If I can't, it's just not durable enough for me.

I could #1 never get the guts to jump a skateboard and #2 with the plate and screws in my leg, that just seems like a disaster waiting to happen [&:]

We can ask Lee... if he is willing to volunteer his F103R or F104 Pro to do some jumps for us..

You should get one if you got a place to run them.. they are different for sure.. RWD only, so no need for some high power BL setup, as it is hard to put those power down..
Look at how fast it goes w/ just the silvercan!! [X(]

In all seriousness, the F103/104 chassis look awesome.

Wow, that's just 27T? Quick! I guess it makes sense, it's so darned light.
RacerEX - you bet I still run that DB01. Lots of off road action, some mild jumps, and random tumbles/wrecks due to my driving skillz. I alternate between that and the DT02, and let the kids drive either (although I help the younger guy). I also run the E-Sav when it's actually in running order....which is, like, never lately. [:@] But I'm sure I'll get it bulletproof in time for the first snow. [&:]
