Talking RC Car. Vertex WideBody Soarer, Staggered Work XSA 02C's

Well my new 1/10 scale soarer that is . Took me a few weeks to build it up. Should hit 100+ mph with a few new parts on the way. Enjoy -

Took awhile to get the right offsets guys. Wanted that flush look, without poking and being able to tuck, LOL. I'm on coilovers. 6mm lip up front and 9mm in the rear.

Had some rubbing in the rear, but I adjusted the camber to like a -1.5 and that solved the issue. Rear toe was also adjusted and yes fenders are shaved LOL

The wheels are 2" so in real life they'd be 20's (2"x10 scale factor = 20").
