Depends on what your standards are.

Pics coming soon, have to find all of them.

It started like this, 100% stock with Tekno RC wingmount added



Then it got a custom skidplate, the very first custom part for it and the very first "upgrade" for it.

[Krawlin]

The next treatment was some custom "dual rate" springs


Then it got a "scale" touch, a hitch bumper made with extra parts from a Tamiya Clodbuster kit.

[Krawlin]

My next and first true durability upgrade was GH Racing aluminum bulkheads and front, center, and rear CVD's

[Krawlin]

Then I thought my servo was a bit unprotected, so I got an aluminum cover for it.


Then my steering components seemed a bit weak, so I upgraded my steering to a GH Racing full aluminum steering setup.


Then on to some chassis rigidity upgrades.


Next on the bill was the shocks, replaced with Traxxas Big Bores.

Then it stayed in about that form for a while, but I wasn't getting great performance out of the stock tires, so I bought some white 40 series Wabash wheels and Proline Crimefighters, and dyed the wheels black. (I would like to thank the user "jordan..." for the idea of dying the wabash wheels black. I saw that he did that with his in his G-Maxx thread and I thought it looked so good I had to try it as well.)


Then I got a new body, a Proline HardDrive for the Maxx, and an OFNA Hi-Downforce wing (black).
