Thanks for following along, I have a couple of errands to run before I hit the road to Las Vegas for this, If you have never wheeled the Logandale OHV are just outside of Vegas, do it! SEMA just ended and the Hump and Bump trail run took place there. Hell, I even flopped my crawler there. The rock is insane and for scale adventure with your scx10 or G-Ride of choice, you literally have days of driving!!! I will be wrenching and G6'n over the weekend. |

Parker, take a 14 hour road trip,build it in the front seat whilts going 60, get up hear to the PNW like last time you did that and kick arse with a untested ride and a driver that hasnt slept in days..... I thought the most important tool was the one reading the directions |

I more than happy to be a part of popping your cherry. And glad that your open to all advice and construction criticism because I like coming up with ideas/mods and sharing them to those whom are receptive and open to new ideas. I like your idea of lengthening the wheelbase. | |

Uh OH! I had a boom box like that back in the day. Mine came with the option of linoleum or cardboard. I choose linoleum, it rained to much in St. Louis and break dancing on wet cardboard is like swimming in mash potatoes. Quote:

I always heard the cliche, "too many pokers in the fire". I am still not sure how that applies to me, since multi-tasking is the new mediation. I found that by multi-tasking and completing everything quicker, I had more time to relax. It didn't work very well, because I always have something to do next. I changed my method of meditation. I started wearing Vibram Five Finger shoes. I love them. Then I started riding the mtb again, it has been an adventure. There are mountains in Nevada. I now know what that little ring in the front is for. Going up, sucks, but the down is OH HELL YEAH! But what relaxes me the most his Yoga. Don't laugh. If Diamond Dallas Page can do yoga, then I will try it. |

So off to Las Vegas with the Axial Jeep Wrangler in tow. I watched episode 2 of Rivas Concepts Garage and watched Anthony Rivas cut up an Axial Dingo body for the interior. You can watch it, too; Who better to learn how to cut the lexan body of the Wrangler G6. Anthony Rivas of Rivas Concepts, http://www.facebook.com/#!/RivasConcepts gave me some great tips and these special scissors, but he said was the most important to do was relax. Relax and cut slow. Making a mistake could ruin the body. Cool, I can do this. Relax and mutli-task. I'm damn near a pro at both, so off the hills I go. I kept with the stock body lines. I want to get the body mounted as a roller and test flex an steering. Especailly the rear steering. I had one problem, I left the special scissors, so I stopped at the dollar store and picked up a pair. Here I am relaxing and cutting out the body in my best Vrksasana pose. |

The name of the my Axial Jeep Wrangler G6 is... " Yoda MacNasty" Yoda's first name was a RC Soup exclusive. Check out the article by Kid Kaos; http://www.rcsoup.com/2013/11/the-in...r-of-recon-g6/ But as I was sitting there, meditating, it dawned on me. This scissors would have worked better with this damn plastic off. Now that the body is cut, I have to decide paint scheme. I have an idea. More on this later. Tomorrow I think it is chassis time!
