That looks great, just like the full scale version. I like the wheels in the first pics better myself, but I guess the 2nd set are more like what you would find on the street. I really need to get busy on customizing my truck......

Yea,i like the black 1.9s better too,and the flatirons just hook up much better. The Stompers just dont work on the wet slipery,slimey rocks on my back yard coarse. |
