I think it looks brill, i love alloy so im bound to like it but i just think its a well thought out car if nothing else and as soon as the first reports as to how quick it is come back will determine weather i save up for one for the outdoor season or not, im pretty much already sold

Hey technically you could annodise the chassis any colour you wanted... to match your shells maybe? How cool would that be?

Something you cant do with other cars.

what an idea. All new buggy maufacturers are trying to get a good roll centre with a low COG. i think that although the motor is out the back of this car with the alu chassis its going to be a good weight distribution. Cant wait to see how it goes.

Back to topic !

Jimmy you seem to rate this car very highly although you've not actualy used it, correct me if im wrong and there is no way it will even come close to the B4 no matter who drives it as i believe the B4 is and will be for some time to come the best 2wd on the market in all departments.
