Twisted - That is very nice. I am a big fan of Ivan's racing rigs, and that is coming out soooooooo sweet. Great job.

Are you going to keep the tube color blue though?

looks very good the tube work is impressive but it needs more scale wheels and tires, maybe 1.9"s and shouldn't it be 2WD?

thanks guys, i still need to mount the front shocks, wire up the esc, The body didnt turn out quite how i wanted it to but after i add the slew of stickers that has to go on it, it should all blend... i also need to streatch the front driveshaft.

I have been lookin at the rims and tires off of the tamiya s-10 prerunner or f350.. or i also have a full set of old crome rims from the traxxas hawk... but i dont have to connect em because they are soo thick! i may figure something out..

this is going to be used for the local rock races.. maybe a comp or 2... we'll see.

technically it should be 2wd but wheres the fun in that?

heres a couple more progress pics... IMO the paint turned out.. ok... REALLY 80's.. but i guess thats the whole idea... im still waiting on some stickers from Towerhobbies to complete the look and trying to figure if i wanna mess with lights or not.







heres the rims i was talkin about earlier...
