[@MarkSantaMaria]

The car is sold already! Thanks for the interests!

[@BasedAsukaa]

i have a question. what's the name of the wing you have on the buggy?

[@karmaq8462]

How can I make my 2wd slash into a buggy ?

[@oscarzepeda6682]

Man that looks so fun

[@jasonperez3524]

@Mark Santa Maria can you show us a step by step to convert our slash into that and list the items we need ?

[@freddieparrydrums]

Please show us

[@armandoortiz9404]

Ah the old "BackSlash " conversion, well at least that's what we used to call it back in the day . Looks much better than the ones i converted back when Mike's was still open and i think there was also a class for them , its been a decade tho. But then again we only had the 1st gen slash at the time so i guess alot has changed over the past decade.

[@questionably_xavier9177]

“No reason for me to have two” *Also buys two of everything

[@nobodynoone3428]

Why the heck doesn't Traxxas make an official Slash buggy, kinda like the Arrma 3s Typhon? Seems like a smart and easy thing to do. Don't they like money?

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

Is that what the bandit is for they might make it 4x4

[@nobodynoone3428]

@@Nathan-qt2zi Bandit is 1/10. Slash buggy is closer to 1/8 scale. They could take a 4x4 Slash, mod it into a buggy and label as a Bandit 4x4, but they haven't done that yet oddly enough.

[@joshrcbros7287]

Back in the day before the slash 4x4 I combined a nitro slayer and a summit for my race track to make a electric slayer and my race buddies and I named it the SLAMmit it still races today. It does pretty well against the slash 4x4s d since it heavier it can throw it’s weight around with them hahahah like a BOSS

[@danielthomas8308]

What parts do you need to turn it into a sluggy

[@noahisdumb9389]

what kind of body is that? i have a rustler 4x4 vxl that i converted to a ruggy and the body that i have on it rn doesnt really fit it well and the slash lcg chassis and the rustler chassis are the same width and i think that that body would fit my rugggy better

[@rcaddictive8572]

Man the track selection you use on your videos are sick

[@nick_doutrnz_entertainment]

Right?! He was making 6 second laptimes!! He's fast! ;)

[@LyroLife]

I hope Traxxas will release a Bandit 4x4. A bandit 4x4 LCG Ultimate would be absolutely amazing. Can you imagine? I can. It will probably happen at some point.

[@CertifiableRcAddict]

Where can one get the wing mount? What 17mm hex adapters you using? What body fits best?

[@kevinbell2215]

U should do a video what a best beginner rc car for people that are new to the hobby Mark

[@kevingalea92]

That thing looks sweet man really nice

[@dclongoria1]

What kind of body? Also what kind of tires and wheels? Thx

[@rccarnage5268]

I have also made my slash into an buggy and i am loving it so far! :)

[@rccarnage5268]

Abradolf Lincler 😲

[@freddieparrydrums]

How did u do it?

[@rccarnage5268]

@@freddieparrydrums its quite easy, first you need a buggy body a Tekno 1/8 buggy body is a great choice, then you need 12 to 17mm hex adapters you can find them on Amazon or eBay for like 9$, then you need a wing mount Strc makes a buggy kit for the Slash once you buy all this then your done :)

[@DislodgedTKO]

I used to always call them backslashes ahha

[@itsdroqee6141]

It’s a rustler 4x4

[@Crabtronics]

That’s what a lot of ppl call them lol

[@joshchatwin8179]

Traxxas take note from ya man

[@rattlehead7281]

My local hobby shop said that yesterday Traxxas had there meeting about the next car they are building. He is a traxxas exclusive dealer and that is what his traxxas sales rep told him because his sales rep had to go to the meeting so its possible!

[@ninthislandrc]

Almost forgot, I'm currently working on something similar, except that, instead of it being based on a 4WD Slash, it's based on the Rustler 4x4.

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

Same car different body

[@ninthislandrc]

@@Nathan-qt2zi Actually, not really. While the Sl4sh & Rusty share a number of parts, there are also several different parts, including a considerably shorter chassis. The shorter chassis makes turning it into a buggy a somewhat more difficult process. Also, considering the rusty has an entirely different body mounts & shock towers, that also means that there is more work involved.

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

@@ninthislandrc there the same chassis

[@ninthislandrc]

@@Nathan-qt2zi The Slash 4x4 & Rustler 4x4 have DIFFERENT chassis. Look it up, yourself, and you will see. The Rustler chassis is shorter by approx 1.25". Besides, I have BOTH, so I DO know.

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

@@ninthislandrc thats bad then because I put my slash one on my rustle

[@jayputters615]

Im gonna turn my vxl into one without the lcg chassis see how it turns out if it doesnt perform well ill get the lcg chassis n swap it out

[@KingerSquad]

Would liked more details on what you actually put on or switched from say a stock slash.

[@kevinbridges8962]

Zackery started in the kids class with a backslash! We still have it..

[@kodak_jack]

A Slash turned into a buggy is a backslash. Is there a build video from when you built this?

[@pietrocavallaro5240]

If you can give some info , what body is that ?

[@dosfeos]

I wanna do a similar build but with my 2wd lcg slash. Would this body fit ?

[@SnarkyRC]

Nope. Something from Losi would probably fit.

[@dalemorton2364]

Hey where did you get the wing mount?

[@kjs6469]

I know I would be interested.

[@anotherstar8125]

can this be done with the rustler 4x4 vxl?

[@arkansasrcbomb344]

Mark what kind of body did you use for that?

[@silentassassin1108]

What would it take to convert an eb48.3 to a short course truck?

[@guiygyy7562]

Careful with brake parts cleaner and carb cleaner 😉 I've melted my fair share of bodies and parts because of my arrogance lol.

[@JIPPERR_1]

How wide is this with the buggy wheels on? Looks awesome, I'd like to convert mine to 17mm hexes and a GT style body.

[@mechadroit]

what parts do you need to do this conversion?

[@Christian-cj4id]

Your sons shirt though 🔥

[@Mahaney82]

Im new to all this. Is a sluggy the same as a backslash? Also, why not buy a buggy or is it larger when made from a slash?

[@hab2gobathrm]

Hey Mark, my sons 5th birthday is on 9/23 but we've been looking for something to start with. This would be a perfect intro instead of something new.

[@hab2gobathrm]

BTW we just moved to Texas (Austin) in Nov.

[@krodyssey4770]

What’s a good nitro fuel because I was using byrons but they don’t sell it no more in my area. So I just bought the traxxas top fuel and too many problems. Should I use vp racing or some other else

[@jomanjitv4847]

Hi Mark just wanna ask if what body is the best for my rustler 4x4 buggy conversion. Except for proline predator. Thanks man 🇨🇦

[@YoungWide]

Hey what wing mounts and front bumper is on there

[@joeymendoza3859]

How did you like the Sluggy/Backslash? Debating on doing this with my Slash 4x4 that has the STRC lcg chassis. Always wanted a 1/8 scale buggy but could never get myself to pay the price. Feel like it would be perfect with the chassis I have and getting the STRC conversion kit.

[@BlaiseFPV]

Thinking about doing the same thing with my 4x4 slash. You ever end up doing it? And if so, how do you like it?

[@ninthislandrc]

It's not called a "sluggy"...it's called a backSlash...LOL

[@nick_doutrnz_entertainment]

Hmm... what mashup could you build to call it a BackHand? Hmmm.....

[@robbryan3044]

@@nick_doutrnz_entertainment Heck if I know...but, the 'backSlash' name has been around for several years...also sometimes seen as '/Slash'.

[@stijn5783]

Is it still for sale?

[@nitrorcmaff468]

Hey do you have a video of you making this car thank you

[@krodyssey4770]

Why can’t I get a good tune with the trx top fuel any advice. Don’t tell me to get a different fuel cuz they don’t have byrons on their store. They only have trx top fuel only

[@craiglimon6964]

VP is good. At least 20%. Try with new glow plug. Or colder plug for hot weather. Check for compression. You should get some resistance by turning the flywheel. And check to see if you’re getting fuel to engine.

[@danielmiller7986]

Hey mark I’m definitely interested in the sluggy for my daughter hope you choose me

Can someone give me a decent carb settings for my revo.i use traxxas too fuel.i live in 90-100 degree weather. Pls respond I will love you forever

[@anxiousvariable1214]

Honestly you should just set the carb to factory settings, give the HSN an extra 1/8 turn rich, and see what the exhaust/temps look like. Better too rich than too lean. Every nitro carb is different, even two of the same model. You just have to adjust and test over and over until you get it right.

[@jessicalatex2539]

#MarkSantaMaria I have a question... As I've been looking at 1/10 4wd buggies but the race ones like team associated and others are not as prevalent let alone long term parts availability.. So I've been looking at creating something from a Traxxas platform. To which the rustler 4x4 seems to be reasonably close to the dimensions length wise as well as being l.c.g. by its design. Do you think it's possible to do like you've done with this slash but using standard 1/10 race buggy tyres and rims.
