This was when StaticX was kind a big deal and was doing concerts all over the place. Just so happens they like RC cars as well! Team Associated Presented this MGT to them as a gift for cross promoting. Cool Mag coverage as well.

Looking forward to seeing pics!! I had one of those :D

Very nice. I love the new built one in the top photo. That's cool that you have a runner. I built one many years ago and quickly remembered how shady the tranny was. I ended up morphing it in to a super monster beetle using a super blackfoot chassis.
I love my Frog but was fed up with not being able to keep up with my friends Stampede, so rather than buying another RC, with the help of some broken wheels, heres my solution :D
1/8th scale buggy tires make it alot easier to keep up with taller...
