My New Ride - 02.07.2007, 06:36 PM

Hey guys! I went to the indoor races at my LHS and it was really cool all they race is 1/18 scale and it is on a small foam track. Even though outside racing is way better i like the indoor racing because it gives you something to race in the winter. Also since all they race is 1/18 everything is cheap to buy, build, fix, and race. While i was there the coolest cars i saw where the xrays (m18) they were incredibly fast and cool and they are small and fairly cheap and of course they are good quality. So i was on a mission to get one of these. It seemed kind of hopeless because i was broke but i was so determined i managed to get one buy selling stuff i did not need (aluminum mini t parts like arms and such in return for plastic parts) and well i got one. Anyway enough of that info now to the real stuff. The car here cost me 106 bucks flat. I used my mini t electronics and the xray kit and that was it. SO that is why on in the car you see a mini t battery. Electronics include LRP micro reverse ESC, JR Reviver, mini t 6 cell battery (it fits fine and works better than the 5 cell that it is made to handle), and a hitec servo. But the most embracing thing about the car (don't laugh) is the motor yes it is a stock mini t motor. Now i know this sounds bad but since the gear ratio is smaller and the car is lower lighter and such this mini t motor pushes this thing to a 18mph and that is plenty enough for a 10ft by 10ft track. But i will be upgrading to a cobalt 14t and from doing 18 to about 45 mph way to fast but cool. Anyway heres the pics and there are a lot of them but i like pictures. (also this has to be one of the best investments i made i highly recommend this car it is so reliable, adjustable, cool, and it works great)(body is painted buy me it is the first paint job i have done in about 1 year and it is orange because that was the only color i had) (note camera is capable of taking better pics so sorry for the badness)
