Default my two boy's and my x-trails

we decided this year to not run comps, so we took our rigs apart and bought some x-trail chassis. we get alot more use out of scaleing than waiting for comps to come along. long story short here is what we have, not much of a build thread since they are already built but here are some specs and pics.

first up is my rig.
chassis: tcs x-trail
axles: axial
trans:axial
rims: eritex rockers
tires:proline 2.2 flatirons
delrin skid set up double trianglation
home made delrin bumpers
homemade stainless seats
homemade servo winch
tekin fxr esc

Thats great that you get to spend more quality time with your kids. Getting them addicted early isnt so bad either. They all look good.
