My modified Tamiya Egress combines old and new hop-ups. The foundation is a reissued Egress, with smoky windows, sparkling silver, improved ball cups and upgraded aluminum suspension, steering and transmission from G-Force option parts.

The stance is vintage Egress using cast metal uprights and lower suspension mounts and electronics from the 1990s. The updated tire and wheel comb for a more refined appearance. The bling upgrades can be seen in the Egress thread: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=47689&p=541985#p541985

If you hurry and modify this post to be pics of your entry, then you're probably in. But if you wait, you're probably not in.
