The only in-progress shot I have shows the body without its roof. Basically I stomped an EZ-Foil pan til it was more or less flat, then formed it by hand. That's why it looks like a$$.

Crashaholic does it much better, starting with a piece that's actually flat, and forming the aluminum over a buck. But I guess he cares what it ends up looking like

i am in the process of building one out of of radio shacker electronics and axles. gunna a light frame around it and then make the panels out of tin also to get the most realistic effect when bashing it up. I gotta get some out here to get into it! so fun cause you only need an old junk rc.

lunchbox · 09-23-2007, 11:36 AM

LOL

Very nice guys. I think you needed 5 more cars out there though.

Abednego · 09-23-2007, 12:28 PM

i'll put pics of mine up soon

slobin3d · 09-23-2007, 12:38 PM

what was wrong with the blue and white one, it never had power?

microgoat · 09-23-2007, 04:28 PM

Lunchbox, yeah, we were supposed to have 2 more cars, but one guy got lost and one had 1:1 car trouble. It was still fun

Aaron, I think his battery false-peaked. Didn't have enough oomph to get moving.

Trikster · 09-23-2007, 04:59 PM

Pretty wild... Going to have to try that.

I believe you are referring to me

Crashaholic is my name over on scale 4x4.

I can't believe I'm just now seeing this! I've been wanting to do a demo since i was a kid! Pretty cool guys. I think I may need to convince some local RC'rs to get one of these together.

Oh and yes my bodies will look much better because i'm crazy like that!

Brainstain · 02-19-2008, 09:23 PM

Can we make an Outlaw heat?

I'd be down for that. Hell, I'd drive to OH to crawl and smash with you crazy fackers.

This should be on the things to do at the Scale Nats! There would be plenty of guys that would do it.

littleskull99 · 02-20-2008, 07:36 AM

Reminds me of the last 10th touring race day I went to, LOL

Looks like a lot of fun, hope for more cars next time.
