Ultima SC-R build challenge

I hear you, Gixxer. Actually, after getting it and starting to build it, I'm kind of curious if it was worth the 300 bucks. Don't get me wrong, I love this truck and can't wait to run it, but I have a few gripes that I will need to improve, I'll make a note of these as I start to post pictures. I already have a need/want mods list started. It's a nice truck, and if my driving is up to par, I think it can win me some races and the overall quality has been quite good so far. To be fair, I only have 3 items on my "need" list and one of those probably isn't necessary and the other two are going to be about 30 bucks total. Overall though, I love the design of this truck and it's substantially easier to work on that the SC10s I've worked on, so I am very happy with my purchase, but if looking at what's available, you'll have to ultimately decide if it's worthwhile to you to get it. I still say it was worth it for me and what I wanted, but an SC10 would probably do similar things for a little less cash. I really didn't like how difficult the SC10 is to work on, ultimately.

Pictures will go up tomorrow. I've been doing my best to document the whole build so far. I currently have a rolling chassis and will build the rest tomorrow, including the shocks (maybe that's why I'm questioning the purchase price so far... I haven't even touched the velvet shocks yet). This thing has me seriously consiering an RB5 to drop a 8.5-10.5 into. It's got killer looks and is super easy to work on and simple to adjust with TONS of adustments. I'll be doing photos in the AM and finishing the build in the afternoon.
