Firstrc, you'll like this one. I'm modding the volcano to put rpm stampede arms, carriers, and links on it.

It gives it a softer touch. Kind of like being on road instead of heavy, bumpy grass or lumpy dirt.

Oh... yeah makes sense.

OUCH! You bent that upper plate pretty good. And sometimes it's a bad idea to have super strong bumpers you know (the energy skips through and goes to the weakest point the chassis)

An impact like that probably would have bent the aluminum chassis anyway... might be better off to stick with plastic.

Hmmm.. I wonder if those black plastic chassis can be dyed??? Prob not but it would be cool to put a nice color on it!

Well Adam and Wade, you made me a little jealous. So I went out and bought my own drift tires. They are Losi Drift-R tires. I can't wait to try them out but it's raining.
