I have no "planes" for it, but my plans are to wait until I have some more money. lol. This will be a slow project, I have alot of other stuff going on and RC has taken a back seat. It will get finished though :D even if I have to sell my Rusty.

I'm hoping to see that fabled MMM combo soon. If not then I'll get a 9xl and use my spare ubec and MM. lipo will be 4s 8000 mah.

Sorry it's a slow project guys, but I'm not made of money, so this gets work when I have some to spare ;) donations accepted, lol.

Are you gonna get some black shock socks? I run them and like mine, really adds a nice touch to the color scheme.

Already have them. I may just use the blue shaft covers I ordered, or them and the socks for effect. I ordered the anodized GTR shocks, it would almost be a shame to cover them up.

yah i got the gtr shocks and had the shock boots and did not use them cause the gtr shocks looks so nice.

and your going to love the gtr shocks. i think that was the upgrade i loved the most on my revo.

Well here's a first... My wife just came home from the LHS and gave me a set of 40 Series Road Rage II's to replace the bowties with ripped beads that came with the roller. now to get a set of off road wheels. I'm boiling, stripping, and redying the wabash's black now and will mount the tires this evening.

Before:



After:


much better!

Nice! I remember when I dyed my Wabash wheels when they first came out. I need to get some and dye them black again. Yours look almost identical to mine:

Sounds like its gonna be really nice! You might want to simply sell those shock caps though. I had the same ones and didn't like them at all. They cause ALOT of slop in the suspension.

hmmm. i might try and shim them then with a small plastic spacer, or use the stockers and sell em.
