A lot of work & time but it was all worth. A real stabil beetle is born. Never driven but will in some weeks. It got a traxxas slash system wich makes it run awesome fast like 70mp/h. It´s built out of many different tamiya and selfmade aluminiumparts. I made a perfect suspension too so it is not to hard to handle and it protects the gear.
I´m glad that i life next to a golfcourt haha, but they ain´t ;-)

A beast of a beetle, like the colour and a great idea to fit the Traxxas brushless kit, looks like a fast one!

love the CRA alu bits! if you're really going to be throwing that much power at this chassis you might want to consider running it with a lexan body to lower the center of gravity. what kind of transmission do you have in it? if it's the stock setup you might end up with some carnage in the gearbox and some spectacular acrobatics along the way! although apparently you can simulate the effects of a ball diff just by using really sticky grease in the gear diff...
