Default Rookie - First Scale Build - LJ

I know I'm Cheating a little. Let me get a little more experience, before you judge me. Well, I started with a New Bright TJ body and an Axial DINGO Kit. So far it is an Axial Kit, with RC4WD tires. My wheels for this build are coming from MotoWorx.

Looks good buddy, excellent for your first. Wheels are sweet too. I've got the same wheels coming with the oppisite anodizing pattern.

You need a driver. That I think would top off the scale factor. Other than that I think your good to go. Great pics.

This is how it starts, it's called "first rig-itis". You do a really awesome job on the first one, then hummmmm......maybe if I do this, then #2 is on the drawing board. Nice rig, looks great.
