I have a question that has been really bugging me for a long time  and since I drove Doug's fish it became clear ,to me at least, that I 'd prefer to modify the panels for  better visibility.   I'm not very tall,only about 5'6",but I'm not a midget either. I can barely see over the hood ,or bonnet ,if you prefer. What's the purpose of running it so high? In the dunes or offroad in general it really blocks from view a lot of what's in front of you. If the body panels stopped near the upper panel fasteners the line of sight would be VASTLY improved.

I'm a little taller than you and asked the same question to doug with the same experience. I really like driving dougs rail but the hood down farther would be an improvement for myself in the dunes and I'm 5'11" on my toes!   ;D  I was also shocked at what that rc51 had for tq! that is a sweet ride doug.

It would go from nicely to very nicely if you would photoshop REIDY into some of your parts.  ;D


Your build is looking super good.  Congrats!
