Wish I had the money to build something like that! I dont even want to know how much is into that build

I liked the yellow truck body the best. I think it looks more fitting. IMO. Probably takes a few gallons of paint to spray up a body huh?

Very very awesome! And I liked the video! Looks like it handles quite well!

And FC energy drink. You going to let some RCM members test it out? Maybe some rc sponsorships?

thanks for making my day BlackedOut! i cant believe you went through the thread from page one??!! its a long thread. anyway, i liked the yellow body the best also but i was driving one night and it was a little cold and i went over on my lid softly and it just shattered. some of the stock redcat stuff is very cheap. i am working on a buggy body now that really hugs the chassis to keep dirt out. hopefully it holds up better.

as far as the energy drink my whole goal with it is to get is as big as possible but i really want to be involved with RC as much as i can with it. unfortunately there have been a lot of delays. we had our cans sent from cali to utah to be filled. they have sat there for 6 months now and we just kept getting strung along. i finally went down and pulled our cans from the place about a week ago and they are now being shipped to a very reputable plant in Portland, OR. we have been guaranteed production within the next 30 days. i would be happy to send samples to anyone wanting to try it. also, we will be doing a reseller type program so if you can land some accounts in your area you could make some money (interested parties please PM me or check the website. it will be updated once production is complete). RCM and Tekno will be getting a case for sure as soon as i have it but hit me up in 3 weeks and hopefully i can send you out a few.

I would definitely love to try some of the FC soda. I'm not much of an energy drink guy as most taste "powdery" to me, but I like giving new ones a try.

thanks man,
it hasnt seen much discussion in a while. i will post some updated pics and vids in the spring most likely. i sold my 2215 and plan to buy a 2220 and get the disc brakes on and then i will post some more vids. i just recently sold all my other conversions except this one. this thing has been the most fun rc i have ever had for sure. those baja shocks are just incredible!
