|  Formula Toyota
Kaetwo built this cage last week and after some "persuading" he let go of it and it came my way  I want to keep it clean and simple. Definite plans are some good lights, probably a servo winch, and some better detailed interior parts.Also, these are not the wheels that are going on it. What do you guys think, should I run stock Axial SCX-10 TR wheels or some black RC4WD Steel wheels? Onto the pics     |

It doesn't take much persuading to get him to let stuff go, does it?  Looked nice in person. I'm sure you will do it justice. I'd vote to go with the steel wheels.... much better looking than the TR wheels IMO  |

Well, $100+ later leaf springs and kit are on the way. I ordered the red RC4WD leaf springs too so I'm thinking that red panels are in order.

There's a chance that when the RC4WD Spooky Crawler tires come out they will be on it. | |

I know the pics are terrible, it's a long story and I had to use a Go-Pro video camera and while they are great for video they suck for pics. Anyway, I got the panels made and painted Tamiya Red. I decided to go with the black RC4WD Steel wheels. Here you go so far More crappy pics to come tomorrow.     |

Nice job so far. It looks a lot different with panels on there. I've got to shake this N1H1 shizat and get to building another one. |

| Testing out the Go-Pro
I wanted to test out the Go-Pro so I made a quick mount off the rear chassis brace. I think it's a pretty cool view.  |
