Hey Everyone, This section of the forum is pritty quiet these past fue days, so I was wondering if anyone would like to post some pictures of there trucks, and a little story of how they came to be (the truck that is)

Id love to start but I havn't got anywhere to host pictures from yet. Ill do my best to get a picture up ASAP.

Feel free to post your pictures, Crawlers, Basher or anything else you have...

Hey, here's my Twin Detonator which I finished building yesterday. I need to install the RX then it's ready for it's first run.

It's custom colour dark green metallic and I kept the decals to a minimum for a simple clean look. Stock kit apart from the alloy dampers which are about 5mm longer than the standard friction dampers.

I'm looking forward to giving it a run. Please feel free to comment on it [;)]

I want to subscribe at some point in time so I can have a 'showroom' can I keep the same user id or do I have to register a new one ?.

Good Day:

I can't figure out how to post pics, (yes I saw the "how to" but I am not computer friendly) so, I only managed to include showroom links. The Txt-1 is beyond description ! Oh but I love that Jugg as well ! My favourite built trucks. Check them out and let me know what you all think. First link is the TXT-1. Second link the Jugg 2. Enjoy, and check out my other rides.

I've been quite because I've now managed to end up with 4-5 clod projects on the go at one time [:S]

Will post pictures when they are done - plus i'll probably need to shift a couple of them.

Well, these are some fantastic trucks being posted. I am partial to the bodies with few stickers on them, and wow, TWINSET you've got an awesome collection on the go. I'm almost embarrased to post my pics!

The Novak SS5800 Brushless is just stupid-fast in this truck.

She squats a bit under full throttle! lol

A little jump I set up in front of my office. :)

Going for a bit more air this time!

This truck is just silly amounts of fun, ...now if only I could keep it from eating dog-bones and outdrive cups!!!

Cheers,
