yes it was my first kit, it took longer to put together then everyone said, but overall it wasn't hard to put together, some parts in the instrucktions are hard to see what they are doing, but i figured that all out, clutch shoe, and clutch bell was the hardest thing to get, cause they only give you a picture

Ow come on...you gotta go with Marty Brodeur. GO DEVILS....well anyways...I like your color scheme, I might have to do a base coat of white and put a red or yellow strip on mine. O and I also noticed your male model poster (picture on left, to the right of the frame) haha I dont think a poster like that should be next to Belfour OR Sundin(even thought I hate Sundin).

Nice build. did you do any winter prep to the truck, such as waterproofing? i'm sure if you dont have snow yet you will very shortly. waterproofing servos and other electronics can save your nerves and your wallet. have fun, winter is the best season to own a monster!

Not for me, all we get is cold, no snow. I dont like standing outside very long in 20-30 degree weather either.

My Revo's gonna start hibernation pretty soon.

Your truck looks awesome. I just painted my first body and went with a simple one color scheme, it came out nice.

No i didn't do any waterproofing, I will when i run it outside, but i hear so many different things about running it it the cold weather, well not really running it, but breaking in the Engine, the other day it was -10 Degrees F (-22 Degrees C) its just alittle on the cold side.

lol
Yes it was my first truck i ever built, well its my first truck ever and i decided to build it.
