Baja 5b

General RC Information

She started out as a full size buggy but I found it to be far too big and bulky for being a shelf queen I was planning on.
I rebuilt it using RPM Arms, and eliminated some aluminum parts to drop the weight and size down a bit.
She has a 36cc chrome double ring engine but has only been ran once after breaking the engine in.
I am proud to say she won a rig of the month contest because of you awesome folks.
