Project: Ultimate Rustler

Finished Product
So there you have it, the one & only, the original, Ultimate Rustler, winner of 22 podium finishes against fields of Associated and Losi trucks and buggies on the local racing scene. Though this truck, itself, is permanently retired, it continues to inspire hobbyists around the world to stop taking "No, you can't race that competitively" as an answer and strive to keep underdog vehicles at or near the front of the pack!
