Status: offline 		After getting bored with the banana yellow stock color , i got creative and sprayed the shell in 100% quality paint heatproof flame proof matte black spray can VHT paint , then cut out some propeler plate and glued it in the back tray , then with those triple x paint stickers i got from DDM i got the external chrome flame kit and did my best to where i think they should have been stuck on , the truck has a TGN pipe then i moddified the exhaust outlet to come up through the back of the tray like a real truck , no performance loss , i welded in a proper flowing bend , the engine is ESP raceported 30.5cc stuffed stroker with 813carb ,8000rpm spring its a beast at take off , i also made my own mod to put some head and tail lights in this using those cheap $10 dollar led torches you can buy anywhere & made my own rechargeable battery for them and they work great , lol i love this thing .

Status: offline 		Definitely nery nice work, especially the head and tail lamps. I havd dabled with tring to make my own lamps out of Radio Shack LEDs and other junk, but the result was nothing more than an aborration and a total abotion of the attempt in the end (a total waste; I chould have planned it out instead of jumping straight into it).
