Lol, that b44 looks like an rc18b in comparison!

I got a couple of em yesterday drove em around a parking lot. Today they saw dirt the first time and they're MUCH more at home there!

Dunno about you guys, but even on the pavement these things rock and drift like a mad man!! We were transitioning from a vacant lot in my community via a jump onto the pavement supermoto style, and drfting around the manhole covers (big cones) and back into the lot where we had some rocks set up as cones...bone stock, save putting our spectrum receivers in, these things kick arse!! I love the way they lift the inside front wheel in a hard drift, on pavement OR dirt!! Still, hard as heck to roll unless you hit something while drifting!!

Just finished a great bash session w/ a buddy who got one. Very equally matched, and an absolute riot to lean on each other w/o the tires getting hung up w/ each other. I did end up w/ a nice tire mark across the hood and fender.

We had a pretty good crowd watching and I think we may have convinced a couple more people to purchase them.

At this rate, I'm never going to get to work on the ICE BERG!

The one thing that bugged me about the Slash is the way the front fenders were trimmed. So I did a must do front fender trim. I also trimmed a little off the front edge of the rear fenders to make the rear tire look centered better.

These things are a blast, myself and some other guys have been talking about starting a Slash class for these at a local track.

We haven't had organized races locally for a while, but we have a nice track the city has installed power and is working on running a water line.

With the buzz the Slash has created, we might just get things going again.
