I really like the OCM, I've got two of them. One now has the EVO kit installed.

This is a great handling buggy. The support is second to none.

how does it look exactly the same? it has pillow ball suspension and thats about it. completely different geometry.

im tired of people saying, "oh its just a mugen and an xray combined"

where do you see mugen other than the fact that it has pillow ball suspension. i suppose a jammin with a PBS conversion is just the same as a mugen. why didnt they just come up with their own design?

where do you see xray other than the brushed aluminum?

open your eyes people, dont just blurt out unnessecary things that arent even true.
