Yeah, I did think that, that's why I brought it up. You're welcome. It looks great now.

Awesome builds EVERYONE!
Awe, now I feel bad for giving ya such a hard time. The jokes were all in good fun. No hard feelings!
They asked me what I was thinking!? I simply told them... I wasn't. :roll:

On the tuber / sandrail debate:

I personally do not like seeing them if they do not have at least a few body panels on them........ like the Real race tuber. Something along those lines. But in real life, a lot of them are open cages so I let them go. David's isn't the only one, i think DennisM posted one awhile back too.

Also, yes. All entries should have tires. And in the case of a contest awhile back, they should have a transmission too.

you mean, the chit-chat can begin now?!? :D

to the cage thing... first, David will win the contest, like he does every time he enters. So who cares whether there's panels or not... we already know the outcome of this month :mrgreen:

Second - the almighty Javelin (one of which I will enter the next time you're offering this contest to Kyosho's) doesn't have any panels... and that's one of the best looking buggies... ever... I think this seals it!

Happy to have entered my BW now... all original, tires included (not even boomer re-re tires) i'm telling you!

Good luck to all :)

Yeah, too bad that during an open build contest we're still going to get crushed by an rc10! :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's ok, we love the car anyways Asso. :mrgreen:

From a time when the kits looked like a scale version of something that actually existed!

You had comented...
The thing is, it looks good with these wheels and tires, but anyone will tell you at first sight that you just built an re-re-egress :mrgreen:

To which I responded quite cleverly...
We'll, the thing is... That NOS BigWig looks great but anyone will tell you at first sight that you just built a re-re-BigWig. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah man, no hard feelings. I am kind of a a-hole sometimes. I don't mean to come across that way. It just happens.
Hope you're doin' something fun.
