wanted to run the stock steels, but the more i look at them, the more these look ok :oops:

SKIDS ON!!

Goes preety good, drifts sweet and super sweet to look at, it is alittle heavier than the ford focus body, but you wouldnt notice that its slower

may have to drill a hole for the ariel to poke out, as reception doesnt get you more than a few meters away

kinda dont wanta tho

HeyHole out

Is that a super old Tonka truck? Instead of more slam you could do a Monster Truck conversion then drive it over other toy cars for lols?
