speaking of bEER Reg, I was drinking bEER in Greenville, SC, but I think it would taste better on the cost.

did someone mention rod was building a RC10 or a 10T, hum...maybe it was a 10L :P

Can't wait to see it totally done. Looking very cool so far. I have a similar idea I have been bouncing around with mine but with different colors.

Did you powdercoat the pan or just paint it? It looks real nice.
I don't mind being behind the modern times, at least we had common sense back then.

Well it's been a while, and I never got a body painted for it! I so badly wanted to run. I thought I would put some well placed stickers on the disaster "Urban Cammo" body that I painted earlier, and have fun running it! I don't think it turned out too bad!

So the first run was good fun! But, the front tire popped off the three piece wheel! I fully expected this to happen on the rear, so I glued them but not the fronts! Fixed it by simply gluing them!

After about 4 packs this is what the chassis looks like! :shock:

Oh well! It is a runner! :lol:

The wing took a bit of a beating after a few bad landings!

lol, that wing is pristine compared to how mine turned out after my fist day. I will probably be by to snag that T2 body from you this weekend along with some different springs.

Your truck handles awesome and I loved driving it!
