Talking so I sold my crawer and got this





my crawler had been sitting around, and I got a little taste of speed with my mini Summit, and have been wanting a Slash for some time now, so I sold the SCX10 and turned around and let it fund a Slash project

stupid thing is a BLAST!





















Needs a new body soon, and I'm thinking of getting a Proline F150 Raptor body to put on it and painting it straight black.

Found the telemetry sensors for my DX2s system and hooked them up. I need to hook the speed sensor up to a different spot because it doesn't work at all the way it's hooked up right now (reading off the center drive shaft's rotation), but the temp sensor works GREAT and is AWESOME to have





Also found out that the chassis really collects some crap running around in my front yard, lol

well the week old BRAND NEW Velineon system took a crap on me... go figure... but the local hobby shop that I got it at swapped it out for a brand new one! also got a sway bar kit and a new bearing for the clutch shaft; it BADLY needed one...





so she's back in action and pulling wheelies all the way to full speed again seriously though, I'm going to need a wheelie bar if I'm going to be test driving on pavement... the concrete is taking its toll on the RPM rear bumper, LOL






and it's current setup has no body at all. just the steel cage with some panels I made for it out of a $5 plastic tote I picked up at Lowe's it was super cheap, and it looks MEAN!

I've been busy lately


























nobody makes a newer Tacoma body yet, so I'll go with the new Traxxas Raptor body

Not to bust your thread, but when I saw your RC truck it made me pull out my old ones and man mine looks like an old sled. I built this back in 96 and thought it was the s**t. I just wanted you to see my old school Losi XXT Graphite and get a good laugh. Total dinosaur, but it still works.
