Pics of your latest purchase

[TheLetterJ]

...you all know by now that I never post pictures...

I finally bit the bullet and bought a set of 8 lug KNK slotted mags https://teamknkhardware.com/5-slot-1...-style-19.html They're just like the 16.5" wheels I bought for my dad's '78 K25 over 20 years ago and I still have his truck! I'm afraid that means I'm gonna have to build another rc around these wheels. If there's one thing I've learned from this hobby it's: if you think you want something, just buy it! Things get discontinued pretty quickly if you wait around.

On that same note: I waited too long to buy the High Altitude Performance Capra chassis and then they were gone. I got lucky and scored a new one from the classifieds here. Hopefully it helps breathe new life into my Capra... because it's always been "just okay" to me.

Great buy on the SMT Kit! That would have been impossible to pass on! I didn't see that deal!

I grabbed a set of the purple v3 cf rails when they released. Im goina build a gshot build soon myself. Im kind of on the search for capra axles at the moment for that build. But the ar45s are next choice if i cant find any

New tags have arrived! The ones on the bottom are just stickers without the vinyl backing. Also picked up some Bigfoot "Hide and Seek" scale stickers. RC Plate Shop threw in some "RC 4Life" stickers for free.

Nice! Those purple rails sure do look purdy! I don't have a set of those fancy colored CF rails yet. Love the look of them and wanting to get an order in for a set soon.

I did steal my Capra axles from my Capra awhile back to use on a still unfinished G-rig. Probably use them for a G-Shot build. I do see that the Capra axles are a HOT item now and are hard to find! I'll keep an eye out for ya!

I also noticed that. A lot of the stock components are backorder on rpp and amain.

I wish axial would offer all of their axles as kit versions, ar45p’s, Capra, and ar44 ( i know ar44’s exist already, but we need updated ring gears and lockers)

Brian, the blue rails really pop in the sunlight, theyd look good stickin out from a cab only build. The purple ones are purple no matter wat light lol. I lovem!

Twade, i agree, axial should make kits ot of all their axle setups. Alot of use would rather custom build, i think, than to have to buy an rtr n strip it of the parts we want.

[Goro Majima]

Oh I think they would make a ton if they offered axle kits.

I've been getting my plates off of eBay but I'm gonna have to show some love to RC Plate Shop on my rigs that don't have plates yet.

I would say I feel a 'draft' coming on, but, it's more like a 'drift'...car, that is.

Yeah, check them out. They have a ton of State plate options and cool scale stickers too!

April has been a very busy 1:1 car month.
Sold 2, traded 1, and bought 1 I've been looking for for 5yrs.

A red 2 door Standard cab SWB V-8 Dodge 4x4.
Found a 1999 V-8 5spd dodge 4 days after being listed on Facebook and I look Everyday. WTH?



My nephew has one and kept thinking about selling it but it was between his Dad (my older bro) and him debating.
They both have newer CrewCab Dodge Diesel 1 tons and they like driving the Lil red dodge for driving around.
Soo, I found my own.

My order of IERC parts has arrived for the GK-Ecto build. >> B-MOW's Element GK-Ecto-Knightrunner Build

[B-MOW71]

Something cool just got dropped off at the shop today.

Ordered a couple whip antennae from Bad Andy at Twisted Tree RC. Cool little springy whips for my GK-Ecto and Phoenix rigs.

Can’t wait to see these in action out on the trails!

1.9 wheels for an upcoming build. Not exact, but they’ll work for now.

I could never find V1 available so it's a pleasure to own V2!

[B-MOW71]

I was finally able to get my hands on a set of the Team Garage Hack TGH-HH H.O. V1.1 E.B.R. Edition Wheels for my GSpeed V1-C1 build. They are currently in stock and on sale. The V1 wheels is being replaced with a V2 design.
