Thanks guys! Josh, I have some MIP driveshafts, but I doubt I'll have much time to get them installed before the comp....my free time is scarce these days.... |

Sure, the tires are custom made. I started with two sets of Panther Cobras: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXNPT4&P=7 A bit of cutting and a lot of glue and I ended with what you see above! |

Nice truck...  No, seriously, you have a very nice rig. You should be proud. And BTW, what do you charge to do a set of tires for someone else...? They look bitchin |

Thanks guys! I've got not intentions of running this thing in the mud. The tires hook up nicely on rocks. They are extremely soft!

Well, unfortunately, I was the only person to show up with a 1.9 comp rig, but folks seeing me driving the MRC was inspiring and I heard a few folks showing interest in rebuilding/buying an MRC. Anyway, the rig performed great! This little truck can really crawl quite well! Here are some pics from the day:   A pedofile showed up:        |
