Very fun.. I love it lol..

I did a little cutting on the body last night so I wont have to take the body off every time to cut the fuel off or on.. Im still debating whether I need to cut some holes in the wind sheild to cool the motor a little more..

Stupid question #2: Wasn't it worth the wait?

Nice fix. Regular CA or Rubberized CA?

Rubberized CA is the way to go, it's what the scale guys use for Narrowing and making Cut&Shut tires
