NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

I have just bought this from my lhs for a steal at just £400!!

i think its absoloutly awesome even though its just reli a new shell and tires

however it looks for cooler than stock marders and handles far better with the new tires

it was much faster in a straight line than the HPI baja and handling is not far off dare i say

would like to know what you think and if anyone has 1 of these

cheers:D

I like it, looks nice. I was trying to see if I could put the roll cage, and body from an FG Baja on my Firehammer, but I can't find all the parts yet.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Here is one we did with orange wheels. I am working on one at the moment with yellow wheels, pics will come soon.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!

Really like the Baja version. Amazing what a few changes do to the appearance.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Wow, I really like the FG Baja. A new body and wheels really spice it up.
All of the ones posted look sick.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

I think in the near future I will be ordering the FG Baja.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Anyone know what pipe they show on the FG Baja on the Large Scale RC site? All the pics I see in the the ads have a black tuned pipe of some type. Looks like it might be the Samba pipe. I like the one in this pic.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

the pipe part number is FG06292 http://www.largescalerc.com/Tunedpipes.html

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Thanks

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

i was running one of them pipes on my MT but i found allmost every time i rolled or cartwheeled the MT the pipe and header would come apart .

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

I think with a tight coupler it shouldn't be a problem. I know with that type of exahust that sometimes it happens. At least it is an easy fix.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Does the new FG Baja have more ground clearance than the normal Marder? By looking at pics the Baja looks like it has more ride height because the new tire and rim combo look taller overall. If so that is great.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Some more Pictures of the New FG Baja, up close and personal. Clothes off and On.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

and more. something must have changed here I had to make the pictures really small.

Maybe these will help with your clearance question.

Yeh, there's something funny going on with image posting for the last few weeks, admins are onto it.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
 

Thanks for the pics. It just makes me want the new FG Baja even more than before. It will be my winter project. Want to buy one and get the alum motor mounts, either the FG pipe or Samba pipe for it, and a few other things to have it ready for spring. Also a wild paint job.

RE: NEW FG BAJA BUGGY!!!!!
