Nice car, please post these types of things in the Micro Gallery from now on though. This one was a freebie. Keep up the good work and try and keep away from the 'Hop Up' bug for as long as possible because once you have it you can never get rid of it.

I don't think you can run those batteries on a micro. Aren't they 1/10 scale batteries (SCR panasonic sub c).

dude i dont think it madders what kind of battereies you use as long as they fit and you have a esc that can handle them. i have a 1/10 futaba esc on the back you can see in pic. im gonna have four on bottom and two up top like a camel hump i alread messured it out on my micro. Height: 42.5mm
Diameter: 22.3mm thats the batterie and me and my dad came up how to put them on. i think it will MOVE. specialy with a 14 t pinion. im pretty sure you can run these.

Thumbs down

without increasing voltage you dont increase the speed. and mounting anything as heavy as batteries on the top deck will raise the center of gravity so much that the car will flip on any high speed corners.

car looks cool as it is though, I like the tribal decal down the side.

I think though sence the reciver will be under that it wont madder as much about flipping i actually tried to see if that would happen i added fishing weight to the top ALOT and it never flipped but of corse with the 6 cells its gonna be faster so we will see i think ill get the sub's because there cheaper and they have the fast charge thing. tower dosent carry 2/3a's were can i get good ones cheap?

Kool! You can buy good batteries from porsche and poopie on this site. I wouldn't bother after with the C cells utnil you get a pan chasis and a speed 300. becaseu all stock all you will do is roll you car and the battery weight will weight so much that it woudl make a difference stock. Shorten them wires too. And also move that ESC down to the upper deck also so oyur center of gravity will be a little better. Hope this helps other than that wait on C cells and kool car.
