Default Project: "Midnight Oil"

The reason for its name is because I built it during the late nights for my daughters 4th birthday. The build includes Savox servo, Sidewinder SV2, and the stock 20t motor out of my Wraith(which will be changed soon). On to the pictures








And the moment she opened it up...I should of had the video going. Priceless!


Hitting the trails today:

I would be happy to be your daughter for a day

I'm thinking "Pink Panther" sounds like a better name... (even though panther's have no stripes - lol)

Nice job on the paint, are those stripes freehanded using liquid mask?

Thanks, The stripes are from a decal sheet that I had a local sign shop make.

Very cool man. I remember my boy when he got his first crawler I believe the rest if my day was charge,run,charge again,run,charge again, run

It's cool to see the little ones getting involved

Build a trailer for your daughters SCX10 and load your sons KB Drift car. Just get some off-road tires for it and it should be fun.

That would be a cool idea. I wonder how the Traxxas Rally car is in the woods?

Lol.... They suck. I have a KB Rally with bigger wheels and real Rally off-road tires. It has very limited suspension and to much power and speed for its size causing a lot of control issues.
