Picked up my 3rd Nitro Nawk. I had no choice. Nostalgia got the best of me! The Nitro Chicken was my first nitro, and first stadium truck as a teenager. Mine was an early gen-1 with Image engine and aluminum recoil housing. Man I loved that truck! Faster than the Hornet, Raider, and RC10 I had befor...

Think I'll dye the rear wheels black and leave the front white...

Tower looks like the early 4708 graphite tower, not the later 2839 tower found on the LSII and in Rad II and Hawk II front end u...

F-that! Torch the house down immediately!
