I'm gonna guess RC18T? Based on the shock towers, electronics layout, and the wing.

However, the upper a-arms and wheel carriers... I'm thinkin the Kyosho Mini-Inferno?

Looks different, tho.

What is it? Looks pretty cool!
It was an XRay M18T before I started turning it into a M18B.
I hacked an RC18B body, made f/r body posts, added XRay's 1/10th scale hex adapters, Proline dishes with Perilli T Rally tires, 3Racing chassis, 15t pinion, 6800kv with 3s lipos and dyed the wheels. It's a tight squeeze to fit everything under that body.
It still needs shocks and upgraded diffs.
No chance yet to see what it can do yet but it should be quick.

That was quick joey! j/k

Glad to another pic of one in this forum. I was begining to think mine was the only one.
I've been waiting to see one with a hacked Crowd Pleazer body.

How do you like the handling compared to the other 1/18 trucks?

i got alot of 1\18ths and this one is my favorite for most tracks i run at..

thats a really old pic i got of it.. right now i got a killer carpet setup on it..

I've raced this truck at rcmadness 2 weeks ago i made the B-main with a simular setup thats in that pic...

my other local track is pottbellys its a flat track setup so i lower it alot more(7MM)..
i also have a Mini-t,rc18t,H8(carpet setup also) and the M18T of course..
 
Mine also handles better than the others.

I would like to know more about your setup, the lowering, etc if you care to share some tips.
