Mad Racer's early B'Day present !!!!!

Post by Mad Racer »

Yep I have a awesome partner.

My B'Day is this Tuesday but she decided to give me a early present.

So I had to build the Wild One as I have never owned one & wanted the re re. The H/Buggy is just for spares as it's cheaper this way. I had a list of what I wanted so she decided on these.

Oh well I think im a lucky man.

Geri -
Mad Racer is not a fast builder, the Misses knew that and was afraid he would be in over his head on this one, so she bought him an Expert Build :wink:

Mad Racer - congratulations on this fine buggy. I had it back then and remember being amazed by it´s
size. I guess it´s standard 1:10 wheel base? but I thought it was huge.

Gave it a run today & was pretty good.

The rear shocks are way too stiff so I have ordered some better shocks.

I couldn't stand the wiring layout for the battery plug so I re wired my battery and the wires and plug are all internal now.

A action shot from today at Boondal.
