:twisted: its off of a late bay bus. i had it laying around so i thought id see if it could work, it does great, tons of steering angle. plus i got tired of breaking bug boxes.

:twisted: an invader huh.... was it bugpack that made that one?? took it out today for the 1st time, bent the exhaust, need to "improve" the turning brakes, and fine tune the gearbox and carb.

:twisted: i just looked up some pics, its deff. NOT an invader. it way smaller than that and the rear of the frame is pretty different. so far a hi jumper is the leading thought.
