sorry guys im new at this. way too big and way to much zoom. well atleast you can see it from across the room lol. and yes its like many of the rd clones with a few other touches. hope you like it!

[DrkDad22]

Just change it to a link.

Are those Hot Bodies shocks in the rear?

Looks good, but the air filter could use a cleaning, unless it's an illusion?

[money B]

yes they are hot bodddies. and most definatly the air filter is toasted . i just got done running through huge mulch pile. i blew the car off but didnt clean the filter before i took the pic.

[DrkDad22]

What oil did you fill the Hot Bodies with? I use 50wt in them, but I found, IMO, the stock springs they come with to be WAY to soft. Im upgrading to RC-Parts springs all around.

[money B]

yes i have the rc parts springs as well. those are the hb springs on the rear in that pic. for street riding i found the softer springs keep the rear tires on the ground and it handles alot better. a spot where i run ill switch tires back and forth for street or off road. if im gonna do some high jumps ill put the rc parts springs on. oh yea as far as weight 35-50 depends.

[18t turbo]

woooooooo thats hottness. i love it

[Head-Hunter]

looks great. that air filter needs some serious cleaning

[Ruiner]

Unless I am mistaken, you have fuel in the tank as well. I would drain that out before you store it.

Other than that, looks good!

[nitroracer87]

is that thing all aluminum

[galivan]

Looks good. I like that chrome style upper and lower chassis.


Apparenly?
You might want to fix your sig.

[Head-Hunter]

[DrkDad22]

[roboman2115]

Nice truck.

[DrkDad22]

We're all anxious to know where you got that fuel tank and what you had to do to make it fit. Also, is it any bigger than the stock one (more fuel storage)??

[RustlerMan2.5]

Very nice wood floors!.... i eman truck. HeHe. What shock springs are those? Are those the RC-Parts ones?

[DrkDad22]

yes i have the rc parts springs as well. those are the hb springs on the rear in that pic.

The rear shocks have the stock hot bodies springs, the fronts are the RC-Parts springs.

[money B]

the tank is an rc10gt new style. easy mod. orignal mashers, i only use them for jumping.

[money B]

thanks for all the nice posts fellas. i have you all to thank for all the good info and links to the sweet hopups. sorry traxxas for the rc10gt tank but.....

[Rusty_Noob]

Does it hold anymore fuel?

[DrkDad22]

lol. Thanks for letting us know what kinda tank it is.

For people wanting to know how it's mounted and more stuff:

you have to drill 3 holes and coutersink in the chassis to mount it. its about the same size as stock capacity but as you can see it has a sweet lid with a strong spring and oring seal. imo its a great upgrade. also you can slide it out to clean by just removing the 3 screws.

Taken from a PM sent to me by money B.

[Rusty_Noob]

Its exactly the same size because I looked at an RC10GT on tower hobbies and it says it comes with a 75cc tank

[money B]

thanks drkdad i knew youd hook everyone up with the info so i now i dont have to type it again. as youve seen i dont have computer skills but im learning. as far as the capacity goes it comes with something that you can put in to reduce its capacity. i can only guess without it, it wont be race legal if that helps to determine the size. tonight ill fill the stock and refil it and see.

[DrkDad22]

Glad to repost the info for everyone else!

[sillybeast40]

WOW dats nice but im curios of how much all that cost and wat engine is in it ??

[DrkDad22]

Ha ha! Dont even get into cost, it gets a little scary when you add it all up. Im around $950 without gas, batteries, repairs, or the cost of the truck, starter battery, or charger. It's crazy!

The engine could be the 2.5 with just a different cooling head, but the picture is on the wrong side for me to be able to tell.

[nategtrider]

bitting my finger. thats nice, bit to big of tires to be driving but very good look.

[DrkDad22]

They are Masher2k's. You can drive with them just fine.

[nitroracer87]

i beleive those are regular mashers but ya you can ride with them perfectly

[DrkDad22]

I dont know which ones, but no matter what, you can use them just fine.

[Head-Hunter]

those look like regular mashers. M2Ks have slits in the tread

[DrkDad22]

Ok, I always forget which is which. They are both fine though.
