Picked up a closeout-priced decal sheet for the Team Associated SC5M and went nuts - why waste paint?

I like this so much. And I thought about why for a second and I think it’s because this silly little truck tries so hard, tumbles, gets back up and tries, tries again. The gray shell, not gonna lie, it’s growing on me more and more . And you nailed it here, dude.

Damn, thanks for that, guys...

And yeah, wish I wasn't by myself on that run yesterday - 'cuz this little truck was pulling some hilarious stunts...and needed a witness!

One of the most entertaining tricks is the protracted nose wheelie - just get some speed up, then throw it in reverse - the overdriven front tires take over and it will nose wheelie for a few feet. at least.

I swear I was just trying to break in the tires!

Considering how light the truck is, it definitely can make some good crawling lines.

Had myself a fantastic time, was out there for 2 full packs - over 3 hours!
