TLR 22 5.0 Elite

Post by Lavigna »

I bought this 22 5.0 Elite when it first came out several years ago. I have slowly built it up with just about all the upgrades you can make. I still have a few things to do, but it's close. I recently got this painted body. I put on the Fantom decals because I plan to install Fantom electronics.

I think this is the coolest looking modern 2WD.

The last picture shows it with some vintage electronics, similar to what TLR did for the Elite promotion photos.

THAT is a pretty car. The vintage electronics pic just... puts a smile on my face. :)

Speaking of the pics... stellar photography. 👍

Looks great! Are you planning to do the tribute body to go with the wing?

Thanks! Yes, I plan to paint the stock body in the Kinwald theme to go with the other wing.

So it doesn’t matter what platform it is, it still ends up coming out all YOU…… nicely done 8)
Who do you race for ?
Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.
Hey Cru ! Go balls out 8)

I have this one just about done now. Fantom electronics added, as well as some additional upgrades and the 22X4 rear end mod.
