Finally…a build thread of my own! Updated

i'd keep an eye out for a white rpm "shorty" front bumper. i think that would help finish it off.

I actually have one nip that I bought from lowrydesign specifically for this build. I thought at first it was too much white up front but that was early on. Maybe now that it's further along I'll have to give it another try.

Very cool build. I love the titanium hop-ups on the hubs, dogbones, and tierods!! I like the way the white gear cover looks with the white parts. Looking forward to seeing the body mounted and painted.

Fitted: yes, painted: no

So far I've slapped a refinished Checkpoint motor in it and trimmed the body. I have the rest of the electrics I want to put in but I kind of jumped the gun and started with my Sassy build (the blue one in here http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=13118). It's definitely on my ever growing things to finish list.

Thanks for the compliments, almost no one has noticed the tecnacraft axles front and rear. I'll get around to finishing it...hopefully soon.
