Get the hand bros CMS kit for it for scale look. The AX10 steering will work , but being orange or green wont help with the scale look.

Next read through the SCX-10 section. It has loads of threads on Honchos.

Seriously, the sticker on the hood should come off pretty easily if you get it warm with a hair dryer or something. SEARCH through the paint and body section and you'll find lots of methods for removing stickers. You're posting in the newbie section and that's your saving grace right now but PLEASE work on the punctuation, capitalization and spelling. If your post is tough to read you will either get bashed or ignored. | |

I would suggest new wheels and tires. That is the absolute first thing you must do. Even though the Flatiorns that come on the SCX10 are very good tires, but there are even better ones out there. Also, you could get new shocks. I haven't owned a SCX10 as of yet(I have a tamiya CC01), but RC4WD makes shocks that will not only give you more ground clearance, but also improve the articulation. Seriously thougg man. You need to work on your grammer. People will A) make fun of you B) totally overlook you or C)Both of the above. I am 15 too and if I can type like this, you can too |
