I destroyed all of the leafs at the last scale comp, but I have new ones and traction bars so I don't do it again. I didn't do too terrible at the comp considering that the truck was put together at 12:00 the night before. I'm thinkin that I'm going to go with a tan color for paint

I'm running a stealth right now, I may take it out in favor of a pede because I'm having a hell of a time getting the stealth mounted securely. Yep, just one color for the most part. I'm going to try and do the top in flat black, but It will be similar to my Chevy.

I have the Warn stickers for the fenders coming soon, but I still need to find a way to get some little Detroit stickers for it too! I also need some USA-1 mirrors to finish it all off

Oooh that thing looks mean. I like those tires, may have to pick up a set. Very interested in hearing how they perform for you.

The tires work very well! I took it to the comp on Sunday and was dinkin around with it on some lines that I didn't think it would do and it walked right up em! One was like double whammy over at Moab, both the front and rear tires climbed a ledge at the same time, the rocks were wet, and the tires were wet and I couldn't get the dang things to spin

I changed it up a bit today. I'm now running 8 cell packs, which meant that the leafs were bent to hell after EVERY pack so I opted for the 4-link off the old scale Chev. I also found the limits of something else with the 8 cell pack.

I got 4 packs through it before this happened-

Oh yeah, that's looking real good with the claws on it. I like the round headlights too, I've been trying to find some in my old sticker collection. I love the smokin motor shot!!
