DO you have a different body than the advertised one? Kinda fugly in the awkward blue color but the project should be fun.

It is basically a HB lightning buggy with a stretched center chassis. I only have the skyline body, but the blue is much nicer in person, less watery looking than in the pic. I may investigate to see if the dm1 bodies have the correct wheelbase...

From what I can gather Mike is extremely busy, and I would hate to bother him.

Thanks, I like to have a few (10+) projects going at the same time. I just pick what to work on depending on my mood. For the past few months I have focused on crawlers, before that it was monster trucks. Now I am back to speed, so on road cars will keep me entertained. I have this car, a new gtp, and my 10th scale tamiya tt-01 to fix and modify. Something is going to beat 100mph, and I will have video proof!

so its direct drive to both diffs? I knew it was 2 speed, but I've seen center diffs with 2 speeds. My bad!

They just removed the center diff and replaced it with a 2 speed. So the center shaft that the spurs ride on is solidly connected to both diffs. I prefer the solid center for on road, makes drifting more fun/easier!
