SE cell in Nikko truck

I wasn't sure where I should put this, so I put it here... If it is supposed to be somewhere else, could somebody move it there, please? word.

After seeing hogs dual celled Nikko truck in action, I just had to make mine fast, too... so when my SE cells arrived the other day, 219s idea of putting one in one of these seemed like the plan...

This truck is killer now, and was fun to figure out how to do... after my initial grinding, cutting, fitting, and soldering, I think I somehow messed up the pot on the Nikko pcb, and was all pissed off that I had no range, no matter what I did... So, I pulled out one of my trusty old Motorworks for a donor... and one pcb swap and a little bit more grinding and drilling later, I have a Hummer that looks and weighs the same as bone-stock with the body on, but is extremely kick-ass...

The future of this truck is this Micro Speed pickup shell that I've been working on, and probably a wheelie bar(then I can get rid of the ugly brush guard that I only left on to help keep the front end down).

I have another SE cell, and a project in the works involving it, but this little beast has me seriously wanting to order a bunch and do a few more of my rides...

Big thanks go out to crazydave for turning pimps on to this awesome mod... hmmm... maybe I should follow his lead and drop two of them in something

Dodging the crocs, sharks and jelly fish while racing little boats might make an interesting reality show.

Also, those batts are back at 1-800-the-shack. Just adding this here cause they were discontinued before. Hey, I think the radio shack guru's are payin attention to our needs. Just more proof they're watching us.
