i saw this beast on PBB about a year back, (buildup shots)

how far back is the engine?
no flex?
the mall terrains are nice!!
looks a bit pretty to be flogging on the rocks
and hows going to all that effort for leaf springs?

but seriously i rate it and thinks its VERY COOL!

i just hate it cause its purty
