I gotta work out how to crop and block out the sound on the video, all you can here is people fighting over the wii in the lounge room lol. Are you going to have rear wheel drive? |

Lol fair enough, ill post em up this arve. And it can be a bit of handful but as long as the hear ratio isn't too high then it won't be completely useless lol. Mines not too bad now but i wouldn't mind a little bit more speed from it |

Thanks guys, i haven't got any suspension yet Haha. I just wanted to drive it so its sitting on stops all round at the moment but im still going to bag it so to speak. And i still have to make a hard lid and of course, lights lol. For the hard lid im using a sheet of aluminium, im just going to cut it to shape and glue it to the top of the tray |

All you gotta do now is make it fast enough to drag with sparks! Killer job dude.

I have been considering changing this thing back into a 4x4. Theres just not much to do with it how it is. What do you guys think of it? Id be welding up a full tube chassis and mounting this body onto it and then a full external cage aswell. |

I think im going to keep the f truck body for a drift car and just buy a 1/10 drift car so it will actually be able to drift with all wheel drive and have max camber front and rear for a good Hellaflush look. And with the scx chassis ill just build a full tuber with alloy sheet for pannels. That way i still get a 4x4 and the f truck will remain a drifter and be controlible haha. |

Something like this, the only issue would be the wheelbase. Might have to cut and shut the tray a bit. |
