Default New Traxxas Slash body style!

I think it looks pretty cool. I am going to get one for my slash and paint it up real nice in a Kawaski Muzzy Green/Purple (my new team color) body style. Here it is;http://traxxas.com/products/models/e...rdondakarslash

I was just going to start a thread about this. I was really hoping for a long time that the dakar hummer body would come available. When the body alone comes out, I wanna get one and put it on my SC10. That thing looks awesome!

when I read the title of the thread I was like "so what"...
but thats actually a very nice looking body.
Its more realistic if they put that on the 4wd slash chassis tho.

I like that more companies are starting to come out with "scale" bodies. Never cared for normal buggy or ST bodies myself.

It's actually VERY realistic just as it is. The Robby Gordon Dakar Hummer is essentially a 2WD desert buggy with a carbon fiber H3 hummer body on it. BTW, the real deal is for sale too - you can rent it and run the Dakar this year for 1.5 million bucks, or buy the hummer itself for a MILLION dollars. pocket change, right? haha [link=http://www.race-dezert.com/classifieds/index.php?ct=orrace&md=details&id=38156]Dakar hummer listing[/link]

It is actually an identical color match. In an interview with Robby Gordon, the slash was sitting on top of the real hummer and the paint is exact
