Oh come on?
Who wouldn't want hydros on their car? Even if you can't possibly lower this poor car anymore, it would still be cool to be able to raise up various ends or corners. To go with it, you would need some kind of old cadillac deville.
That would be awesome.
Who agrees?

the thing is though, the plastic hopping model's don't weigh as much as micro's, so it wouldn't work as good, or at all, on a rtr micro :p

that would be a baller....hehe what bout hittin it up with sum 22s...hahaha....hydros with 22 rollers....now thats BALLER!....haha actually it would work. i go to ITT TECH and we had a TECH FEST and this MEXICAN guy did it with his LOW RIDER MODEL CAR. it wieght bout the same as my micro. i dunno bout ulls but it wieght bout the same. he had mini motor door poppers/pushers installed on each dogbone and he wired it up to an ON/OFF SWITCH. this way when the switch is ON the popper pushes up. and when its off the popper softly goes down. just like hydros. he has 4 switch for all four side and he just start flippin' it and the car would just go crazy. he was tryin to make it hop and it hop a little. the little thing was a badd azzz...hehe..he won SECOND for MOST CREATIVE EXPERIMENT.

I've got over 10 of those Lindberg hopping models. My bro got me one for xmas awhile back as a joke, and I started collecting them. Three of them are on my desk here at work ;)

But yeah Theres a chassis called Hopping Hydros or something out there, you could always make it mobile with a custom rear axle or something, Looks like theres enough room to fit some electronics on the chassis. And it's not much different in size to the Micro. Hmm... ;)

I've seen this chassis at a local LHS, I've considered picking it up.

yeah I read somewhere that pegasus hobbies or something made a 1/10 lowrider kit. Too bad they don't make it anymore? I would put one on my 1/10 in a heartbeat. But that would be just weird. lol, a stadium lowrider. But it could be worse. Think, a T-Maxx lowered down to the point where the tires are taller than the car.
woh.
