Meh. CC brace, no CC brace....this thing is still TOTALLY BITCHIN'!

Will complement your CC 10T nicely!
Hope you're doin' something fun.

^ Thanks TRX-1!

I searched my stash and found these transmission braces. All of these are different. I decided to install this one that I believe I got from a member on here a couple of years ago. I believe he made it. I prefer the look of braces that are without the hole for the body post. Also, this material most closely matches the CC material of the chassis.

Here's a side by side comparison. I think I like it.

I should have a BIG upgrade coming for this buggy. Not a sure thing yet but I'm excited.

Big upgrade with these beautiful vintage Trinity shocks. I received them as shown below. I then added some gold shafts and alloy bottom spring retainers.

Very very nice shocks, they compliment that car perfectly.

^ Thanks MarkyDents!

I made a few changes and added these vintage Reedy batteries. I also swapped the esc to the correct side and wired it up. I tried to get the wiring as clean as I could. I hate wires.

The pink Reedy battery decals sort of clash with the red Composite Craft decals. I may change that somehow.

Still waiting on my body to come...

This Andy's body matches the one I have on my white CC RC10T. I decided to use this PSE wing I've had for awhile. Unfortunately the pink REEDY decal on the wing sort of disapears from the pink behind it. I was hoping that would work better.

I still need to work on the wire wing mounts.

I made a few changes. First, I swapped out the rear tower to this Worlds (I think) tower. I think it is more correct, but I just prefer how it looks. I dig the triangular cutouts over the circles.

I also added this CRP nerf wing. I just thought it may look cool. Its just held on with double sided tape for now. I'm not positive I want to keep it. The pictures definitely don't do it justice. In person I think it looks pretty f@ckin cool.

Question - What was the purpose for nerf wings? I've always wondered.

"Nerfing" is intentional side by side collision during racing. The NASCAR statement rubbin' is racin' is the stock car equivalent. Nerf bars and nerf wings are intended to prevent getting entangled with other vehicles during nerfing.

A couple of outdoor pictures to better show the true colors of the bodies.
