I think you need at least a few more bright colors to complete it. Perhaps hot pink and florescent green. You should also find some more stickers - I think I see some bare plastic in one of those pictures.

I didn't know cars could be identified by location. I'm always up for more car pics though. I should grab a body off pic of mine too.

BTW, I wasn't a fan of the rpm bumper at all. The car would dig in anytime the nose touched down first.

Default Why Hex Drives ?

I've been away from 1/10 scale for a few years. I just picked up a b4.1. What is the purpose of switching to hex axles in the front ? I understand its more durable for the rear, Is it a width thing ? If I do the rear, is it necesary to do the front ?

Hexes are more convenient since you don't have to pop the bearings out of the wheels every time you swap tires out. Not to mention you can borrow tires from your friends that use a different manufacturer.

Put white ball cups and an LRP in bilster44's car and you'll have a WI. ride..

I would have thought a "rainbow" theme would be more of a west coast thing.

relax racer53, just givin' you crap..

I really don't have the time to be sending speedos back to LRP for repair...and I damn sure don't like popping white ball cups back onto the ball studs either. As far as the batt wires being up front? This is off road with gear reduction, the car will almost run for a half an hour with an 8.5 in it. The ease of plugging the batt in the front is just fine. Not to mention I use REAL speedo wiring so the current can flow just fine as well. And yes, we are just playing with Herbie too, lol.
