Well the Black and Yellow truck has been put on the back burner for the time being and I have no idea when I will get back to it.

I have been busy with the pile of parts I bought recently and it has sparked my interests a bit more talking with a couple good friends about the direction of the truck and the parts available we decided to make it a track truck.

I had a Thunder on this and then a Lightning came up on Ebay and since I just parted the Predator out I had some play funds. So now this has spawned!

RC Monster Universal Center Diff w/ Slipperential

It mounts great. My friend had one extra GA Ti center skid he sold me and a nice Slipperential. The slipper has been passed around to a couple different owners but never used yet. I will have to pull it apart and make sure it has the correct fluid in it.

I put a monoblock on it since I had shafts that were for a different build and they fit perfect. I might have to dremel a small notch where the rear drive shaft goes under the top plate but just ever so slightly. It clears but it is hard to see light in between it.....LOL!!

Not gonna mess with colors or anything. Just going to get a couple RC Monster battery trays for it and secure them to the chassis. Tune it up and toss it on the track. I have a new LST2 Crowd Pleazer shell for it so it should be long enough.

It has been busy moving my boy away to college so I have not got much accomplished this past couple months. I have a National Clod race to attend in October and then our series Opener is in October so I might not get back to these too soon but they are here when I am ready to tackle them. I got some Clod work to do!!!
