Henspeed...Mini-T
 

so, i decided to start building the wife a Mini-T. why the hell is everything so expensive when i'm looking for stuff for mine but hers comes out so cheap? so far i have $160 tied up in it and that includes
(All NIB)
Mini-T starter kit
GPM Carbon Fiber Chassis
GPM Carbon Fiber Front Bumper
Pre-painted Purple Truggy Body
YEAH Racing White 5 spoke rims
YEAH Racing Monster Truck Tires
Novak 6 cell battery pack
Venom Fireball Motor.
Stuff i already have for it:
GPM 60T spur gear
Losi Aluminum Pinions
Bearings

Progress pics coming very soon, stuff is still in the mail.

That does seem rather inexpensive? Hmm, good finds on deals then, eh?

Get those pictures up as soon as you can! All of your projects always make me drool; you always have the perfect combination of plastic, alloy and carbon fiber.

Cheers,
Kyle.

after i get it all together, i may invest in this integy kit for it too...im trying to keep it light though, and we all know how alloy affects the weight of your car.

@ donzii...i picked up the GPM CF chassis and novak battery for $33 shipped off of ebay. the CF front bumper was like $6 shipped. The mini-T was $99.99 shipped and included a free Venom-Fireball motor (the motor i wanted anyway lol). the wheels and tires were $10 shipped and the truggy body was $13 shipped. so, around $162...

edit again: here's some of the parts coming in.

i hope carbon fiber is stout enough to withstand the damage inflicted by a reckless female.

Can I be your wife? It looks like the job comes with some awesome perks!
Looks very cool btw.

it's coming together, CF servo cover, CF shock towers/body mounts, CF front and rear lower arm linkages, sealed wheel bearings, rims/tires are all in the mail...
