Went with black outlines - very pleased with the overall result - especially the red - [i]perfect[i] Ferrari red... Custom Colours is a million times better than Tamiya for spraycans....
Now I just need some yellow rims - if I can ever find any 8T wheels....

Patrick, your using the J concepts body for the Mugen right.?
I really like that paint job.
To be honest, I liked that black/silver one more
Im waiting for the Pro bodies to come in stock at the LHS, gonna buy like 5 and keep them

Looks Great Spikeit. Now get out there and win the A-Main. It'll be tough, but I know you can do it! You took a 4th place with a REVO against truggies.

I really like that orange colour. Gonna dye mine black tho.
Just a general question, can you use lexan paint on the rims.?

The exact color I used was Navy Blue. The longer you leave it the Dye in the darker it will become. I am also getting some proline LRP rims and will be dying those Orange as well.
As far as the blue color for the body I used Parma paint for air brushing.
I don't see why you couldn't use the LExan paint on rims, but they will chip also. Dying it is the way to go.

Guys, I am trying to decide on a Losi 8T, Mugen MBX5T or the Ofna Hyper ST pro. The hyper is cheaper than both the others which is important to me as I need to buy my son one as well. My only concern is if you will be at a disadvantage on the racetrack. Can you guys comment and help me make the final decision. I have heard that the losi 8T breaks a lot more, which has me currently shying away from that one. Any help appreciated.

The hyper st pro was my first truggy kit im stoked about it love how it handles and I haven't broken anything yet has had track time but no real race yet and has had some good beating time on it aswell; but, I don't have to much experience with any other truggies except for a jammin soo I can't judge all of them but can say I have had alot of fun with mine and can't wait to race it

I have been building my shocks and have found that two of the shock ball heads dont fit into the shock caps as well as the other two do. Looking in the manual I see that there are two different part codes for the front and rear shock caps, but I guess that is because they are bundled with the shock body?
Has anyone else had this? Should they all fit in the same?
Cheers

I think they were all the same. All 4 shocks are the same I believe maybe except for the front shock shafts being a little shorter, (I think) cannot remember for sure.

I finally got my OS 21 V-Spec broken in and tuned. All I can say is wow this thing RIPs. Power on demand. Now it's time to get the suspention tuned in.
One thing I am noticing is the there is fluid coming out of the front and rear bulks. Assuming its the diff so I will take them out and take a closer look. Anybody else having this issue?

I have had this as well (and Im not even running yet!)
Went to a LHS and they suggested changing the red O ring to a paper type from from an XRay truck I think. I bought them but havent fitted them yet. I will get the part number when I get home if you want it?
