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.

http://www.integy.com/cgi-bin/webc.c...867&p_catid=72

@ 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.
