let's see that pic again.
I have a scale shovel you can have. You can add other stuff too like a boot lace and say it's a tow rope sort of thing...

front bumper
stinger
does it have a cms or on the axle?
You can get drop bed points pretty easy. Just box the rear in.
kids have any small toys? Trey stole some pore kids dog and glued his feet to the bed!

and, you're not going to like this but it doesn't get truggy points because it has a rail frame past the skid. Hera's in the same boat. The scx10 chassis has to stop at rear of the skid and tube work starts.

CMS: -5
front bumper: - 3
stinger: - 1
light bar: - 1
___________
Total = -10

plus easy extra's:
drop bed: -3
inner fenders: - 1
max exterior items: - 6 (exhaust pipes, dog, beer cooler, rocket launcher, etc)
max functional items: - 8 (pull pal, tow strap, tree savor, snatch block, sand ladders, etc)

___________
-28!

Lexon, yes... but heck, you could use cardboard and paint it if you want it for just the TTC.

I need some 1.9s to set that thing off. It's really a cool truck. Craig (big samurai) did a really good job building it.

i could have commented with far less shittyness. i apologize...

thx for not bashing me for it.

im forgiving on tires and always have been, but it's not hard to add up scale points and do it right if were gonna go ahead and comp.

im not completely scale point driven anyway. my wraith as it is right now has 21 points... even with the 20pt minimum we used to have i claimed 19 when it only had 19.

chuck theres a bunch of points in that thing.

hey Zero, let me know if anyone offers you a Futaba Spool.
I bought a Hitec and would rather use one of my more powerful Savox servos... which are Futaba splines I think.

With Buxom Melons current setup, I have a penalty.
No MoAs though...

Well I need one piece to make my scaler ready to go. I guess I'm not following all the scale points so I'll just wing it. The tube bed needs to be boxed or just a flatbed?
