Mounted some new running shoes courtesy of Proline and JC Racing.
Now, the car traction rolls even on dry powder. I probably would prefer a little less traction.
Wow, I didn't think I'd ever say that.

It's loads of fun anyway.

Does the dirt have to be on the RC vehicle? Or is it ok if the vehicle is on the dirt.

Thanks.

Actually, they're Hole Shots. I don't recall but I think they are medium compound - I'm not certain about that. I've had them in a box of tires for a while and they were unpackaged.

The tires I had been running were by Kyosho and were similar tread pattern to Blockades. They allowed the car to be a bit more free which is how I prefer 4wd buggies.
Anyway, I'm learning to drive the car with more traction so it's all good.

This is my favourite picture of any of my cars. Although what it doesn't show is the car fighting me all day . I just couldn't get it to handle right but at least it looked cool.

Is that a Rory cull paint job replica?

Not dirty as such, just very very wet. This was before i sourced my Pro Radiant undertray (but was what instigated my search!)

Moist.

As long as she didn't go rusty again I love the rooster tail

Yes, I had it painted for the iconic revival

It is quite subtle until you look up close.

I don't think that my paint skills are that good

A little wet lots of grass, leaves, and dirt inside it.
I'm glad that I got the extra thick body. This thing spends as much time on its lid as it does running. A narrow SC track width, high center of gravity, and grabby tires don't go well together.

Very cool! I missed the skulls the first 75 times I looked at it. I thought they were water spots
