I am not sure if i will be able to break it then, but i broke my xray the other day, so i guess i can destroy anything if i try hard enough The main thing that put me off about it is the chassis is very tight. they are making a wider chassis that is longer as well, but i'm not sure if the extra weight will just end up making it heavier and then break more. I will have to watch rich duperbash and see what he says as he normally sends it properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wide chassis looks nice, but it's not cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a knights customs 3d printed grille and clear headlight lenses. Pricey but looks nice. There are three different grille designs.
