Wheels arrived today. I went ahead and mounted the tires for you. It'll take up less room in the package.

Lights....blue interior glow, 4 upper light buckets, four under glow two under seats and two going down the rear shocks, and 4 amber lights for markers
Integy c hubs and steering blocks
Mud slingers 2.2
Rock star beadlock rims
Gave myn an original look with my uniform patches, came out great
Also made a bed out of patches
Camera mount on the roof for making videos out here, hopefully the weather cooperates and we can make some soon.
My driver is Chris Redfield from resident evil, I don't have the passenger yet, that will be Sheva from resident evil 5
Stock motor but swapped esc for xl5.
But just wanted to throw myn up here hope u guys like it. I guess this needs to be called wraiths of Afghanistan lol ;)

Are you volunteering??? I'll dig through my bins to see what I have. We really need to get everything shipped today (to me) so that I can put it all together and get it shipped early next week. If any of y'all want to chip anything else into the pot, no matter how big or how small, get it shipped. It doesn't have to be RC stuff either. Trial mix, jerky, sweet Cajun fire, and stuff like that is always a big hit too. It looks like we're going to end up with two sets of wheels and tires. So we'll be hooking his buddy up too.

For the record, the second set of tires are brand new 2.2 Rock Lox!!!! That'll be all you smice60.

Does anyone have a set of 2.2 beadlock wheels they can throw in for smice60? They don't have to be pretty. They just need to hold the bead. Pretty wheels won't be rejected though... Oh, and Smice... START YOUR BUILD THREAD. We expect to see pictures of you and your rig climbing some terrorist rocks.

I PM'd you and will send my 2.2 rok lox (if you still need them) and the beadlock wheels too. It will have to be in the mail tomorrow if that's okay! I will also throw in parts tree in for him as well.

Perfect! If you can, post up a pic for them to see what they're getting.
