I just received my prototype today. I can't wait to test it out.

You can see ThunderTech's introduction site here.
http://www.thundertechracing.com/desertracer.htm

I will be posting pictures, but as luck would have it my digital cam's battery just died...I am charging now. I will start posting pics in about an hour. Stay tuned for up to date info as I test this beauty out and take it to it's limits.

This is the first SCALE stadium truck on the market that I know of.

This is taken from Thundertech's wedsite

TEX, how come you always get the good stuff first?

Did you have to pay for it?

As much as I'd like to see this one built, I think TEX needs to work on the M-03M Suzuki Swift first... hee hee.. (joke)

Whoa, it actually looks like a racing offroad truck. Very nice chassis.

Looks roomy enough to drop a 750 size motor in.

Well, I am going to start out with a 19T or 5700kv.

I have not decided yet.

I am relocating the battery and some other components.
