It isn't in the top 100, but should have been

This has taken quite some time to build the way I like to build a car. I am calling it NEW Build even though the body is painted. I can't remember who I bought the body off of, so if you recognize your work, speak up. I did add that FUTABA decal as the wing is SOOOO big and blank in white.
I don't know what it is about this car that makes it all so right, the 'Tide' color scheme looks almost like something from the NASCAR circuit and then all the extra parts that the Manta Ray didn't get stock in the box. The impossible(nearly) to get orange wheels thanks to the Top Force EVO and let's not forget the body is the SAME as the Blazing Star with a different set of wheels and color scheme. I really dig this car. So I have some thanks for helping me out with completing this build. The wheels were a surprise from Myles and I think I got lucky and bought most of the hard, literally metal, parts from another TC member and then I got the necessary motor as well.
I just couldn't stand looking at the box on the top shelf of my projects, so I went to work and sorted it all out. I was enjoying the build until I found that I had run out of C parts for the steering servo. Good ole eBay rescued that issue and now it sits on the shelf near the Top Force RE RE and waiting on some of its ancestors in the form of my HotShot additions that I hope to add soon.
I really want to get some painting done, so building might have to take a back seat....FOR NOW
