Post by sg219 »

I bought a TC3 from Chrome a little while ago and finally got around to making it mine.

Parma 1997 Dodge Dakota Lexan Body
Parma Wire Pimp Rims
Parma 2 Bar Knock-offs
Venom Racing Magnetics Super Grip Tires
HPI Front Body Posts
Speed Gems Chromium 16T Double Wounds Motor
Novak Explorer II Forward only ESC
Random Battery packs...Nicd, Nimh, and Lipo
Futaba MJ T2PHKA Radio and RX

Combination of a couple paints, Tamiya, and Pactra.

Black Magic Tire Wet. :-o

The tires have not been used yet. The final parts came today.

There might be a couple of marks on them from me testing to see if the rub the body. Which they did. I think I got it good now. I gotta run it to see for sure. Bumps and pebbles add a whole 'nother dimension to how the body is cut when your runnin'.

You can hit a pebble with the front and the wheel catch the body. So I still need to adjust slightly when i run it for the first time tomarrow.

Whatcha talkin' about? :???:

The whole thing was painted with Polycarbonate rattle cans.

I don't recall seeing and 1/10th whitewalls right now, but I'm sure someone has to have them.
