[pedeboi364]

i would get some bigger tires for "race mode" so your truck doesn't look so "deedeedee" lmao. But ya, i hate the look of the big, beefy stampede on some little midget wheels, yuck!

[johndeerekid]

looks arent everything:p i dont like the way they looks either but hey they work awsome on the track compared to the mashers. -Wes

[johndeerekid]

WOW its been al loooong time since i updated the thread. i havent been using the pede a whole lot, so i decided its time to pay some attention to it. heres how it sits right now-

[Lyric]

not to go off topic but can i see some pics of that maxx in the background

[Maxx man]

[LSXEric]

I disagree, the "race" look on a pede is sick!

Whats the plan for it JDK?

[camiguel]

Im pretty sure your plan is to make a custom chassis but thats just a guess.

[Maxx man]

ya thats what I was thinking... is it gunna be made of cutting board?

[AJrc]

i might think you put a slash chassis or upgraded slash chassis?

[Maxx man]

ooooo if you want a slash chassie get that one from thunder teck!!! its pretty awsome!

[AJrc]

I like that one too!

[Maxx man]

ya Im probebly gunna get one soon... I hope

[camiguel]

I dont think there would be a point in getting a slash chassis if he wants to keep his pede a pede.

[Maxx man]

that is true lol

[camiguel]

So were we right or not?:cool:

[johndeerekid]

Lyric- heres a link to the build- http://rcdriver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1125

nitroB- it does fanominal on the track. it has pretty good handling, and awsome speed. i usually end up in 1st or 2nd against the nitros:D

LSXEric- thanks man i love the race mode look.

camigual- your absolutely right

i am in the midst of making a 1" extended chassis out of aluminum. i got it mostly cut out but still have to finish a few things. ill post pics ASAP. -Wes

[Maxx man]

sweet I like it alot... electric beats nitro;)

[camiguel]

This will be really interesting to see what you come up with good luck.:cool:

[johndeerekid]

well i got the chassis finished up and cut and everything mounted up-
