Ya that's why i said "on second thought...". RC's break all the time and a tow truck is a good idea =) I was just being a smart ass lol

if i didnt see krazy joe`s one i wouldnt have thought about building onemine but it going to be fun when someone breaks down and ask`s for a lift and i turn around and say that will be so much money per mile lol.

little update aswell. chopped the rear of the frame as it was getting in the way and i also think ive found something to use for the fabric peice but i need the metal rod first before i cut it to shape oh and i might be adding a winch but iam not sure yet.
