Whipped my roller, got a Barricade, wow BLT has a running car now, and it's quite fast for a 40T on AAA's.

Mods are:

Body:
Crappy paint job by your one and only BLT

Chassis:
GPM-knuckles, CVDs
Hot Racing-heatsink, shock towers, tierod cover
Micro-T battery wire setup
Hard slick front tires, rear foams(drifts like a star on hardwood XD)
VXB sealed bearings
Coiled antenna

40T motor: Neo mags, chili can w/ Atomic quick-release endbell, carbon brushes, 40t armature
AM Superflex wires soldered directly from the board to motor(skills!)

Wheels:
Sharpied 5-spoke chrome rims.
















I tried to get fancy with the hood. :P
Peace.

Not a few, lots.
-Lots of peel
-Thick coats(kinda, just a lot of flat ones)
-Bad skills

Heck yes I did, it looks cool to me, I tried, I could've tried harder, but my spray can also seemed as if there was no air in it, so that's why the paint looks like crp(half of the problem, other half is that I suck at painting).

The camera is still and there's no flash, it was late when I took those pics, from my light, 123vette and I have the same desk light, what a coincidence.
I'll get one right now...

So, is this the track car? If it is, ditch the mustang body, its heavy as can be...

Pleased with the get-up and go of a 40t? I love my 42t pattern wind to death. The acceleration is unbeatable, and with a 7t pinion the top speed is pretty decent for a track car at around 22mph. For NI-MH's go with Intellects. They're uber cheap, but performance is very nice. I was actually going to pick up some Orion cells, because not only is the performance great, but they look uber sexy!

I am buying this tonight.:

And yes it does get up there quickly, not a track car, indoor basher, something to just have fun driving with, no track at my house, but at Insideline Racing there's a nice one..

This summer, my BL xmod will be done by then, I shall rule you muahah .



Anyways, I was thinking of an evo dragster...like a narrow chassis in the front, wider in the rear, no RWD, but handling could improve, plus more weight distribution, and I could use 2 LiPo packs I have right now.

[mustanglover]

i like the paint! love the antenna!
iam working on a drag car so maybe we can work together.

Thanks.

I am ordering(soon):

2 HE BB Atomic cans
Moped ESC

HS55
And a special body.

Stupid range resistor is damaged, it goes 5 feet, I have to walk with the car, even tested it outdoors, so the future setup will be:

The same chassis with parts
Moped ESC
7.4V Tenergy LiPo pack
15T handwound motor
Min-X rx/Losi TX
HS55 hacked into evo servo case.

This shall be fun.
