Cool First Timer

I just bought a 1/18 Nylint Rock Crawler and it works awesome.
I already made the wheel base 15 inches and moved the rear lower shock mounts in for better artic. and bigger wheels and tires. I'll try to get some pics later

thanks for the tip, I was thinking about buying the 1/6 and getting hobby grade stuff for it.

I dont think the 1/6 needs hobbygrade. Its already got proportional steering and throttle. Only thing you need for the 1/6 is chasis mods and shock mods/new shocks and new tires.
