To wing it or to not wing it. The Slayer - 12.23.2008, 09:52 PM

I put a wing mount for the revo on the slayer and taped a wing from my Losi on there. Had to cut the body a bit but didn't want to drill different holes in the wing so the wing is a little crooked. What do you think?

Check out the link to the pics. I took 8 differnt shots at different angles so there are side by side comparisons.


Here's a slide show with comparision shots.




Slide show seemed a little slow for me. Here's the link to just the gallery. With the same shots taken.

I'm still undecided if I like it or not.

I say go for the wing, because it also adds some protection.

I think it looks stupid with a wing. It's like those rice rockets I see out there with a big-ass wing sticking up as high as a 2-story building .

I will third this sentiment!

It's a corr truck, not a honda civic mommy bought for you that you modify with the money you earn delivering pizza's.

Put that wing on there and next you'll add a v-tec sticker to add horsepower!

Or like an old POS rusty Astro van with a huge spoiler, and actual spinners. Ugg, just the bolts holding the wing on was worth more than the entire vehicle.

I'd go without it unless it became a necessity to protect the body.

Come on, everyone knows that only stickers that say "NOS" on them add horsepower! You don't even need to apply it, just throw the sticker in your glove box and the mere proximity to the engine makes it faster.
