Sweet , posted the pics and everyone loves it , got there brains ticking over now for ideas and most are going your route and converting there existing buggies .
I have the Hot Bodies D8 buggy backordered , should be released Sept 1st and it's being built straight into a CORR like yours .

Have the Slash / E maxx bumpers on the way and found the new Proline Hardcorr body for the Slash.

Thanks again fpr the ideas

For the other guys , i was going to wait for the SC8 body as well but i won't be able to handle getting the buggy in Sep and having to wait at least another month or longer for the SC8 body .The Hardcorr body for the slash looks great so i am going with that . The Slashs wheelbase is longer than the Slayer so the wheel archers wont match a buggy if you use the Slayer body .

Mind posting a link to your forum thread?

Did my first cartwheels yesterday and ofcourse broke the rear bumper... :(
Now I remember why I replaced bumpers from my (ex) E-Maxx straight when I bought it.
Black RPM rear bumper for E-Maxx ordered.

the rear end of the slayer body is different then the slash too. the slayer needs to have a hole for the ez start so its shaped different.

Yeah, forgot to mention that. But my point was that they use the same mold.

TDC57: Thanks! Your truggy looks good too. I was actually wondering what mine might look like with the wing, but didn't dare to cut the body.
Now I'm tempted to do that...

Link to video was with post #11 on previous page. Nothing spectacular, didn't want to break anything on the first run - did it on the second then...

Use this emaxx RPM bumper , that's what i have ordered for the conversion

Sorry , just re read your post and realised you ordered the same bumper

Here is a link to our local forum , it's in Australia and we are already discussing rules for this class .
We even have die hard nitro guys going to run brushless in there conversions

Basically any power plant , nitro or brushless
Must use a CORR body and has to cover the wheels , no exposed suspension or wheels allowed .( should make for exciting racing with some bumping and barging alowed without getting tangled in other cars wheels )
Must use corr style bumpers
Must use corr style tires

That's it for the rules , keeping it simple and should be heaps of fun . We have about 7 - 10 guys now getting into it .

Crap , nearly forgot the link and you have to be a member to view the pics .

Sweet job on the Corr conversion. Your r/c bashing area in the video is awsome looking. Slash and Slayer bodys are a different molds!

Got few decent outside pictures today, so here you go:
(say Uuuh!!)

Notice the black "underbody", which keeps most of trash away from the insides.

Got the RPM rear bumper today, have to fix it in place.
There's a new video available too, check it from here.

Sun reflecting from the sand really confused my frikkin (un)Handycam, but I hope you can see atleast something.
