These things are a BLAST!



I believe our first aftermarket hop up will be a chassis cover...

I wanted to go run my SC10, but no way with the GTB in there! It gets dirty enough just running on a groomed offroad track.

Looks like fun!

Aaaaahhhh crap! I'm about to get passed by that orange truck!

Performed minor make-over...wasn't thrilled with the yellow & black thing..originally wanted the Fabtech body...but this is way cooler IMO..

Up next, possible bead-locks & scale BFG T/A's!

My son would like to get a Proline Carnage for his...

These things are too much fun!

Yes the Slash got me back into driving my RC's! Have been building and not driving for too long. I liked the truck so much I went out and got a MINI Slash and MINI Revo. The new paint looks good, more along the lines of the stock Traxxas design.

Same here!

I took a long break w/RC up until a short time ago. I have an RC10GT that needs more attention than a super model to keep running, it get's run maybe a couple times a year.
Most of my stuff is on the shelf.
I started restoring/customizing a B2 about a year ago...then this thing came along.

This truck has brought the fun back to RC.

I don't have to worry too much about breaking anything. :D
