|  My Slash...
One of the first two in Nebraska... Still stock outta the box... I was actually quite surprised at how fast and smooth it is. I had to do a couple of things to make mine stand out a bit...  I had the MSD rings lying around so I painted 'em and threw 'em on. Well, two of 'em, anyway. One is still on a wheel over at a friend's house but I'll be getting it back this weekend. The other one is painted I just haven't put it on yet...  I can't wait for different bodies for this thing... BTW, did you guy's slashes come with one decal sheet, or two? I've noticed some slashes have taillight decals and blacked-out headlights but mine had regular headlight decals and I don't have any taillights... Video of me beating on it will come soon. |

Did you drill and tap the rims or are they self tapping. Did you paint the front skid plate? |

you dont have to tap them its a steel screw into plastic, just drill and thread them in.

I like how the silver looks on the front bumper/skid As for adding the rings, looks good but you want unsprung weight as low as possible for this rig. Handling is comprimised otherwise |

Thanks for the compliments guys. yeah, the skid is just a coat of Tamiya aluminum. And I know the rings add weight, but honestly it's next to nothing (the rings are aluminum.) And I'm not really into racing a whole lot, and they don't seem to affect the handling of the truck at all. Plus they just look COOL! |

The "beadlocks" are great. I bought the first two in the Myrtle Beach area. One for me and one for a bud. I love mine! I can't wait to take it to the local track! Here's some video stills from my YouTube video "Traxxas Slash Splash" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHk47CJ2bXc   Last edited by Zod Rhombus; 06-21-2008 at 09:12 PM. |
