Default n00b Intro

Hey guys (and ladies), I ran across your site from a link I was given on an offroad site.

I'm in Columbus, Ohio, and I just got a modified Traxxas Stampede (first RC since I was like 14 and had this Nikko truck).

The guy I got it from (used) said he's performed the following mods:
- Upgraded the transmission in it to steel gears to support the vxl
- Driveshafts were upgraded to from stock
- Upgraded the rear bearing carriers to aluminum with the larger bearings

He's also modified the rear suspension, but I've not been able to identify it.

With all that being said, right now I'm just driving this thing as a basher. If I get more into RC, I plan on getting something alittle more suited to the finer points of crawling & RC.

Here's a link to a quick gallery of pics of the truck:
