but!

when i was at my hobby shop i found this new RC, i had never heard of em, maybe you guys have. but i bought one cuz they looked cool as ****.

we all have seen the team losi mini T. but anyone seen the Micro T's yet? they are even smaller and pretty effin sweet!! i picked mine up for 80 bucks today. brought it home and bone stock this thing will pull a wheelie till its draggin bumper and hold it for a good foot at least! its pretty sick! they are barley smaller than an xmod, come with a recharable battery pack and yeah. either way heres some pics of it at least.










here it is next to my xmod body, they are just a little bit smaller.





they are pretty **** quick though! and to pop a wheelie is pretty freaking rad to me.


anyway update on the subys on monday.
You got a Micro B! Nice. I have a Micro DT with meshed windows. It's easier to cut out the windows compared to an XMOD because they are lexan. I can barely keep my Micro DT off its roof. Are you planning on going brushless? They are tons of fun. As for the XMODS. What is wrong with pink? Pink is an awesome color, nice choice!

Lol same. I embarrass my younger neighbors because their crappy huge RC's can't even catch up to my Micro DT. I am thinking about a wheelie bar. And an Atomic BB motor for now. Maybe a lipo. Still, these things are tons of fun. Look for my Mesh Window DT thread under my profile to see some easy mods for appearance. Allows more cooling and looks cooler and more realistic. Plus really easy to do!

Really? Soon, I am getting an RC18T and going BL. Back on topic. SPR, any updates on the XMODS?

EDIT:
Maybe you should get a clear Baja Bug body and paint it to look like Herbie.

The pink rims came out better then I had thought with the blue Subi.

okay well now that the subys are done... on to the next project...

this is my real car trailer...




so i plan on making an exact replica out of sheet metal and tig weld it all together for a nicely done car trailer. the only difference is ill make it long enough to haul both my sti's were as in real life i dont htink 2 cars would quit fit, maybe if i took out my work bench, but it would be tight.

i got a titan coming, so im going to lift it, and fix the body because it need some work, so ill prob paint it in scheme with the subys, and insted of making the trailer white, ill prob paint it in scheme as well.

so look for more updates soon.

I was quite skeptical about the pink, as it's not quite the same shade as the STi logo, which is what I assume you were going for. But I'm quite suprised as to how it turned out, much better than I would have guessed.

it was the only shade of pink i could find in spray can, except for a bright fucshia and that wasnt even close. this is about as close as i could get it lol. its really not all that far off.

well the gold is stock, didnt paint it. and did pink because ambers car has just always been one of my most fav subys out there.... lots of pink accents, one being wheels. i thought it just looked good.
