Looks great.

Thanks guys! I did paint a body this weekend but it was a disaster!
Came out more like a very poor urban camo look! I will try another one later! Did I ever say "I hate painting!"????? ARG!!!

Rod, have you run it yet? I had to swap my RPM arms out ( too much deflection changing the anti-squat and castor during cornering ) for the T2 style, way more consistent after that-

No Reg, I have not run it yet! The plastic must be too soft on the RPM arms, or is it the geometry? Though, I'm not too worried about getting the best handling out of this truck, but thanks for the tip. I want to keep this one as much RPM as possible. I have needed a RPM "fix" the last few months! So I'm going to keep them on! I know the Losi springs are not ideal for this as well, but I gota get my "orange" fix! When I get this one done, I have in line a Cliff Lett wanabe 10t that I may worry about the handling with!

So you are following the "if it don't go fast, chrome it!" theory then?

I could put one on the body, but the colours don't go with black and orange! I would love to do an exact copy of the CF18 Tiger Meet aircraft, but I have not painting skills and I don't have the money to get Eau Rouge to do it!

Very nice truck fellow canuck!

There goes the neighborhood eh- " I have a friend 'A cop!' and he drank this beer and there was this mouse in it eh, and he puked! And he said we should come down here and get free beer"

WHAT free beer, down there you need free beer cause it takes so many to get drunk. I lived down in PA, VA and worked a bit in UT, CO & WY...drank so much beer I got sober. Thank god I had a coworker in WY to introduce me to Patron. I thought city people were supposed to be drinking that crap, not hilbillies

What? You must be drinking what's on sale- Labatt's, Molson, Stella Artois etc is all still the same in the states ( even here in the south )

The father in law has a house in SC that I get to every once in a while, yup, same stuff there too. Luckily I live in a port city, so lots of imports and many local breweries too

no mice YET

So your too snobby to take some Natural Light home then eh? Where in SC, coast I presume?

NO, I will drink just about any beer

I would have to look it yup, but I remember it being near Spartanburg or Greenville. There was a lot of beer involved...I remember it being on a small lake and having a gated entry Sounds nice to some people...I hear that my wife and I will inherit it, maybe we can sell it and move more towards the cost down there
