Hopefully will get this one finished up this summer.

No idea when I'll finish the DMX. It's the most time consuming, and expensive project. And I'm flat broke and busy with school.

I'll update the F-Bomb when I get pics.

No, I got those as a favor from CowboySiR, and their being used on this. It was just a pair, and their modified for the hex-shafts from the dual motor gearbox.

Oh and I forgot to ask you a few more questions:
What gearbox are you using in the uns10ppable? [I know it's Tamiya.]

How is that styrene working for you?
And what are you going to use for motors in the DMX?

Love the cars man. The s-10. The dmx dragster is going to be a beast. The f-bomb is going to be awesome. Good luck. I want to see some updates.

Xmodifier: It is a tamiya universal gearbox. Has lots of torque and a good speed. Texan, c1v1c and i have one.

You REALLY need to get some work done on the DMX dragster. It was the first project I saw when I got back into Xmods and it is my favorite so far.

Home life has been busy, and 2 cars are expensive. I'll have a job soon enough (I keep saying this). I've been tinkering with it, but nothing important.
