Good work Razor...it's cool how you lengthened it.

I got some more work done on mine that I'm converting into a topless Bronco, well it will probably have a rag-top:


Sunday I am doing some rock sliders...can't decide on a simple nerf-bar style or a full bumper to bumper style. Any suggestions?

Also thinking of adding somethin to the front bumper...maybe a lower bar that sort of tucks under?

Hmm...sounds like a Quark / Park 400 would be a better setup! I think I know where you can find one...delivered next day priority for free!

Who are you implying with that R2D2 comment? I run the RC4WD GRU on my TXT and I love it. I had one on my 2.2 before I went to the Star Wars set up.

Sounds good. There is going to be a lot of debris after the water goes down. I might have to get up there a clean it up before we have a gtg there.

They look sweet. We will need to wait until the ice melts.


Met with Rcpuller today...bought a Treo off me. Great guy, I think he has the crawler bug and will be joining up with us soon.
