Sup guys, just wanted to post a pic of my sandrail inspired (minus paddle tires) 2wd slash. It was primarily used at my local track (WCRC) but I've since then started racing 4X4 shortcourse and had no use for my 2wd. So one night I had an idea and the next day I rebuilt it. Not shown in the pic is my newly installed integy extra reservoir shocks (will post pics later when I get home):

The build:

Slash 2wd
Integy roll cage
RPM front and rear bumpers & mudflaps
RPM front and rear A arms
Proline Gladiator rears and XTM front wheels
Traxxas big bore rear shocks in the rear
Integy piggy back reservoir rear shocks for the front (not pictured)
Jato front control arms & tie rod long travel conversion
Custom carbon fiber panels
Vileneon brushless esc with tacon 5900 kv brushless motor

Thanks for looking

Thanks guys. It's' primarily used as a basher but I do want to take it to the track for *****s and giggles. As far as speeds go, I havent clocked it yet but it should be in the vicinity of 40-45mph. I'm running stock gearing. I'm uploading a running video of it along with my slash 4x4 bashing around my backyard. I'll post it as soon as it's done.

Here's a running video of the sandrail along with my 4x4 slash. The 4x4 is running the castle sidewinder sct on 2s lipo.
