IMO the wing just does'nt look right on that body, NICE TRUCK THOUGH!

discgolfer72

cool thanks

i was thinking the same thing but my friend thinks it looks good so i thought id check here first


anyone els

-Inverted-

I dont know if its just me, I said no becuase that wing looks HUGE on that body, if you need that much downforce get a venom body.

discgolfer72

dont need the downforce its just for looks! if not that one ,anyone have any links for some good wings(i dont like the lexan ones their to cheap looking and crack really easy)

uh, how is it a truggy?

a truggy is a 1/8 buggy based monster truck.

discgolfer72

a truggy is any buggy based truck

and it started out as this



i put a * next to all parts used ^ otherwise it would just be a rc10t

-Inverted-

I love your retro builds, especially the paint job on the buggy shell... SWEET!!!

discgolfer72

Disco, Losi still carries parts for 'em.

oh, geez, I just looked at your pics of the "truggy"

and I just realized that you sorta had the idea I had a while back about combining my B2 and my GT, and building an RC10GB2:P

discgolfer72

thanks thats good to know you know if its a good buggy

ThunderbirdJunkie

My Feedback: (3)

it was awesome back in the day

discgolfer72

cool thats enough for me as u can see i like to make old stuff go fast


heheheh its fun to beat the new stuff at the track with what everyone tinks is old junk
local kids are starting to reconise my rc10s this losi should be just what i need

-Inverted-

GO BRUSHLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!

discgolfer72

yea thats the next thing im buying for my rc10 buggy but at my track i cant race brushless at least not in 10th scale but thats what this is for[sm=RAINFRO.gif]

edit
thought id post a pic of my new toy so u dont have to click the link

-Inverted-

If you want brushless for 1/10 wait til castle creations comes out with their mamba max.

discgolfer72

when is it coming out im using the mamba comp in my 18mt

ThunderbirdJunkie

My Feedback: (3)

Why else would I have kept my B2 all these years:P

discgolfer72

heheheheh yup [sm=bananahead.gif]

-Inverted-

Cant give you an exact date but i've been following it for quite some time, if it sets an impact like the 1/18 mamba, it will definately give novak a run for their money, and its supposedly going to cost less, AND WILL WORK WITH THE CASTLE LINK!!!
