Yesterday at Foster, she was pulling lines that Melons struggles with or can't do at all!

Whew, I got a lot of work ahead of me before track time.

Yeah it's the MIP kit. It's now almost Half a pound lighter I added some RPM Arms and front bumper which added a little back but I felt the strength off set the weight gain.

I've only run bout 1/4 of a pack through it on the pavement making sure everything was moving smooth and it sure seems to turn better on power. I still haven't really tuned it. I'm using one of the MIP team build sheets (kinda).

Should be a fun day! Tomorrow.

That's pretty slick War Trader!

I have

  1. scx10 stock chassis: skid, shock hoops, braces (need back)
  2. axle Front: dog bones, intigy chubs & knuckles, stock gears I think (need back housing)
  3. axle Rear: stock gears, strc lockouts (need housing back)
  4. Wraith shocks (anyone know if we have shocks)
  5. Trans: RR, VP dig, MIP driveshafts (need back but I can donate a stock trans if needed)
  6. ?

So I've got all the parts from the TTC trophy truck and I have a couple of things bouncing around my head. I really appreciate the opportunity to build and break in the truck but we are missing a few crucial parts. Johnny lent me the majority of the parts to finish the build, but he will need these back. I'd rather hold off and build the truck when we don't have to use borrowed parts. If that means I'm just hanging out and drinking on the 22nd, I'm cool with that.
The parts that Johnny lent us are the chassis, axles, and trans. I really hope this doesn't sound to dickish because it's not meant that way at all. Does this make sense?

No, that makes sense. Another option would be to use the parts and then replace them for johnny. I have a scx10 complete trans to throw in. So, you can keep johnnys aside if its all modded or whatever. I'll have it for ya next time.
