    @xXG.L.HXx I'm glad you wrote this. I used to have people comment "Why do you care there are people walking, walking their dogs, playing with their kids?" Folks have no idea how quick an accident can happen and this turns from fun and play to an assault with injury. The other part of this too, this is how we get banned from locations. It's all about sharing our public spaces safely.

    I just got mine the day before and I noticed the body shell is pretty thin so in order to prevent it from cracking, I'm using velcro strips with glue and wrapping the edges of the body that would scrape the ground when its running. Should've done this with my Traxxas Ford Fiesta ST Rally too. Hopefully this prevents the body from cracking with small jumps or just general driving as I love the body and can't seem to find any replacements for it.

    What we used to do years ago with Tamiya bodies since they’re the most brittle, is shoe goo with drywall tape all inside. It’s makes them heavier but nearly indestructible.

    @kroniksnr You'd have to do some modding with the hexes since 12mm hexes and these tire sizes are not as popular. Motor you could move up to a 2400kv can but I don't think this car needs it.

    @S A This out of the box is setup better than Traxxas Rally. The Traxxas Rally before you do some upgrades still feels like a Slash more than a rally car. This just feels right. It's going to be a lot smaller than the Traxxas but after you pull that trigger you forget all about that.
