Bad Horsie shock covers installed:

I'd recommend these covers to anyone, they're very cheap and do the job perfectly.

Nice build. This might be a car I look into, as I really want to get a kit and build it myself Can't wait to see some bashin' videos.

EDIT: And this topic is very old ... still, the build was cool

I like these trucks alot, I converted mine to brushless electric but a couple buddies have the nitro versions, lots of hop ups and spairs available cheap on ebay as two different guys buy and part out the kits.

Yea, the car is older, but it looks like all the new versions of it are RTR, which I don't really want. I like to build it

I was looking at the TA GT2 a little bit, but I like that this one is 4WD, it would help a lot off-road wise. How is the speed on this sucker out of the box? This might be what I get. I was a huge fan of the Rustler a long time ago, when I was younger, and I think I would enjoy another statium truck like this ... though this time, nitro
