Default I've been a BiiiiiiZZZZZY boy

I stopped midway through my new truck build to fund a restore project on my 50 Streamliner.







Now that it's close to done I'm putting the finishing touches on my latest creation and coming to play. I'll just have to run electric for a few weeks or something until I am done. I still have about $2,500 or work left to do to my 50 Streamliner and about $1,300 worth of work left to do to my new 1/8th monster truck so it'll take me a few weeks to get them together. Till then I have plenty of other stuff to thrash on the track, but I could use one thing (not for the track, I have a XXT for that).................

I need a trx 3.3 or 2.5r for my Jato. If the 3.3 is bare with no starter accys I'll trade straight up, if the 2.5r is complete with starter accys I'll also trade straight up. I am offering a Picco .21 with insane compression. I can't find a big block kit for my jato so I'll just do it this way.

See ya's soon!

LMFAO. Dion, yeah.

Dion I have done a ton over the last month.

New carb, new hoses, new shocks, new sways, new rear deck cut and covered, new exhaust gaskets, new wiring through the whole car, new ignition coil, new distributor, just ordered new tires (these are hard as hell to find, only one person in the US sells them), new paint twice, and about to be a third time (I keep sanding spots down to remove imperfections), today is interior work day so I'm in it at the moment. The car has a 3 inch drop, going for 4 in the next few days to see how low I can get it.

Default ok

for a man that is always braging on how much money he spends or is going to spend you never race what is the use of spending all that money just for it too sit there. just seems like a waste you need to come back out and race the more the maryer.

Bragging my ass, I'm broke and have said it a hundred times if I've said it once. I just go in debt to get what I want.

Go big! Once it is built It'll be driven.... hard.

These are your words...

"Coming soon to a track near you........

Kyosho ST-RR
NOVAROSSI (#35plus21LC) Lamberto Collari Limited 35 Plus 21 (WC)
Twin TTR ACE Digital Servo's
DX3R

The pieces are fast falling into place for truggy V2. Hope to see y'all at the track shortly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A month ago I was sitting in the LHS and "had a thought". This lead to me building a $2000.00 Losi 8T. Well I have another thought...... so I'm selling and doing something different.

Here's the build up thread, notice the date: Let the terror begin!

EVERYTHING has a box, everything has a warranty, everything is one month old.

The starter box is custom, here's the build up thread: Losi starter box mod

The truck has 8 sets of tires. Crimefighters, MT Switches, Holeshots, Boas, X-pattern, etc...... These wheels are painted with a hard coat enamel black, not dyed. (the brand new set with crime fighters are dyed) Some are zero offset, and I have Losi extended hubs included.

($699) Losi 8ight Truggy Competition RACE ROLLER (1 season)
($339) Novarossi 21-5k plus (one month old)
($90) Jammin JP4 exhaust (one month old0
($115) JR z9100s throttle (one month old)
($115) JR z9100t steering (onemonth old)
($85) Losi starter box (one month old)
($45) Gel cell + charger (one month old)
($50) Losi lipo (1 month old)
($25) Losi regulator (1 month old)
($50) Losi Lipo charger (one month old)
($600+) 8 sets of wheels and tires. Will get specific when I have a serious buyer.
- Losi extended hubs
- M2C high strength pins
- Carbon fiber dust guards
- High temp brake kit"
