The alloy chassis and skidplate are from Awsome Alloys.

The body is painted french blue (TS-10) and after applying the decals the body was clearcoated two times.


The motor is a 'Sport Tuned'.


The freeplay from the frontwheels was removed using some washers and I also removed the freeplay of the pipejoints at the roll bar.



So far no leaking shocks, getting them right is hard, I needed 4 attempts before they where ok. The trick for non leaking shocks is to tighten up the 'cylinder end' with a wrench.


The letters on the rear tires are painted with tamiya white (PC-1)

Nice. I've just finished building mine and realise that the AA chassis is a must because the standard one is far too flexible. No wonder the radio crates cracked on the Rough Rider.

Very nice! Good choice with the Awesome Alloys chassis and skid! I'm very happy with mine too! Excellent job on the Sand Blaster lettering, too bad they didn't include the Jr's for the front!

The chassis and skidplate are from Awsome Alloys. For the decals I used some washing up liquid solution in water.
On the forum there is a thread about 'applying stickers':
