What that means is that as you construct your chosen monster of the off-road world you choose what gear ratio and other custom parts (that are included with the kit) to add as you build it. In addition to the performance-enhancing optional parts that you have at your desposal you have a new and improved Fuelie 26S 26cc gasoline 2-cycle engine that provides even more power than the stock 23cc gasoline 2-cycle engine in the RTR Baja 5B.

Now on to the chassis and suspension. Start with the sleek anodized aircraft aluminum chassis. You also have orange anodized accented highly detailed double-wishbone suspension and VVC/HD Baja shocks. Adding a modifed rear shock tower (for better traction), heavy duty bead locks, metal steering gears, front and rear sway bar kit, and a clear pre-cut body shell to add your own awesome paint scheme and you're good to go.
For additional specs, see the HPI Baja 5B dimensions and specifications. Most still apply to the kit version.

Ever wondered how much torque the Baja 5B has? This video shows what the Baja 5B SS can do. Keep in mind though the dirt bike closes the gap between them towards the end of the strip though.

This is definitely be the way I would want to customize a Baja 5B SS! I am an old school muscle car lover from way back. Good burnouts are also great to watch. Look at all the black marks in the parking lot.
