Yes, that one is amazing. I should have mentioned in the first post that you can only enter your own project. I don't know why but for some reason someone might not want their project in here. I certainly hope shaun enters his project.:yes:
You could sure pm him and try to encourage him:whistle:

jnev 12.01.2008 07:46 PM

I think Shawn may have already beat you on posting contest already... :wink:

WHAT!?! Haha he beat me by 7 minutes...:surprised::lol:
Well I guess we'll have two.:neutral:

BL_RVO I'll stick in your hyper ST

BL_RV0 12.01.2008 07:55 PM

Thank you!

magman 12.01.2008 09:06 PM

Some one could break down the projects even further if they wanted....into buggy, truggy, mini truggy, and extreme project.

That way more could enter and more builds could be seen...just a thought

Either way it is a cool idea...:mdr:

That's a good idea. If we get enough people signing up I will for sure do that.

magman 12.01.2008 09:16 PM

The idea you guys started is terrific...my thought was if we could separate it somehow, we could see more rides to enjoy.
Maybe the rc mag need to look no further than here for their next brushless conversion! There are some v/talented people on these pages w/out their info. and support, my conversions would not be nearly as "professional" as they are.

Metallover 12.01.2008 09:19 PM

So I am thinking for the categories - ST/truggy, Buggy, MT, Custom, On-road, Large scale? Anything I am missing? Think we need an on-road here?

Arct1k 12.01.2008 09:22 PM

Crawler / on road

Should also do a standard template of picks and spec...

magman 12.01.2008 09:30 PM

Mini truggy?

Added that in there. Can I have a link to your Crt .5 if you want to enter it?:rules::lol:

magman 12.01.2008 10:10 PM

Here ya go...and thanks!

BL_RV0 12.02.2008 12:14 AM

Question: Will there be a winner for every category? What do we win?
FWIW: I will have a new (much better) picture of my truggy on wednesday or so. Please don't close the polls until I get my new pic up! :lol:

Metallover 12.02.2008 08:13 AM

u have a couple weeks before the polls start. I am thinking I'll put them all on a poll and then you can vote for one from each category. Tell me when you get your new picture.

JThiessen 12.03.2008 10:35 PM

I like Redshift's build http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14560- that kind of innovation, and build it yourself construction needs to be more recognized than the ability to write a check or run up a CC bill on shiny store bought stuff.

BL_RV0 12.03.2008 10:42 PM

Second that.

Metallover 12.03.2008 11:14 PM

My god, yes that's amazing. i will send him a pm. I really like that kind of stuff too.

redshift 12.03.2008 11:15 PM

Wow I'm floored with the comments guys!

Put my name in the hat, it's Jason.

I think mine defies classification, so I will leave that decision in all of your hands.

Thanks so much to those of you who also appreciate the anti-bling, or at least extreme function-before-form lol.

This will be an interesting contest no matter!

Metallover 12.03.2008 11:19 PM

I am considering changing the title to more of a show-off thread because I think we could get more builds on here that way. Sound good?

youve got to be kidding me. that thing is beautiful!!!!! and functional
I LOVE IT!!!
truly inspiring...

redshift 12.03.2008 11:25 PM

Got your pm Metallover, looks like we intersected on the replies lol.

And which kind of metal is it you love...... both?

Metallover 12.03.2008 11:30 PM

It means the music type metal. BUT the hard stuff it pretty inducing........:lol:

I'll get your truck in there tomorrow. I still need to know what picture you want. Your truck is truely amazing. In my eyes I like it more then the battle truck. Your truck is the kind I like. It's really innovative and you can tell a lot of time was put into it. It wasn't bought either. It was created.:yes:

redshift 12.04.2008 12:18 AM

Nice- I am a Gothenburg freak. I am an American, but always gravitated toward Sweden. Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Therion, etc... metal heaven.

[end thread hijack] ;)

Please use my avatar pic, post# 3 in my Mutation thread.

Very good sir!

redshift 12.04.2008 12:19 AM

Yes Pantera too. I'll shut up.

Finnster 12.04.2008 01:54 AM

POTY 08: Mini-Truggy: Mine :yipi::wink:

haha, I just like mine as its insanely fast (broke 60 easy,) lightweight, LED tail and headlights, runs Masher2Ks on Jato rims for bashing, and used the Ofna chassis and made everything fit w/o batts hanging off or wierd mounting. Not only that, I included tons of ET data on different setups, motors, batts, gearing etc.
Entertaining and informative. Plus I made my own batt tray. Yeah me.

sikeston34m 12.04.2008 08:33 AM

This build began in late 2007, but didn't actually come together until Jan of this year.

Does this one still qualify?

http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...t=direct+drive

:whistle: :yes:

JThiessen 12.04.2008 09:44 AM

I gotta think so. I was actually thinking about who the first guys to do the outrunners were - I completely forgot about yours.

:lol: My interests have changed sicne then. My favorites are All that Remains, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, and System of a down. I have random songs that are awesome like Hearts burst into fire by Bullet for my Velentine, and a couple from megadeth.

Back on topic, It will take me awhile to get all those posts in. All of them have to be edited in by a mod so be patient, and make sure to thank brian.:whistle:It will probably take awhile to get the next ones on because of the links and putting the info where it needs to go.

I'll get Sike's, Shaun's, and Finn's in there.

I don't want to know how much you've spent on rcs. I'm sure I'd faint.

I found out to my horror that you can only have 10 pictures a post. I need some suggestions on how to do this. Just take off all the pictures?

BL_RV0 12.18.2008 09:50 AM

Why not post some and attach the others? Or post them all in 2 posts?
