Default First post...little help with my Lunch Box



Hi guys...I've been out of the hobby for sometime and have recently decided to get back in the game so to speak. I have a Lunch Box re-release ( wanted one as a kid, got the Blackfoot) on order and was wondering if I could get some suggestions for shocks and maybe a few other hop-ups. I know the Lunch Box isn't meant as a basher (bought a stampede for that) but I'd still like to have a little off road fun with it. I know the yellow tamiya shocks will fit, but was curious if there is anything else out there. Any other suggested add-ons would be great...thanks in advance

hey
Sweet. Why did you move south?

I've seen the Lunch Box at a hobby shop in town, it looks sweet, and I think I can even remember wanting one as a kid. I had an old 4X4 buggy from Radioshack but never got anything else till now.

WOW! Someone else actually has a Lunchbox! I have one too! But mine is kinda in pieces... The only hop ups I ever did was put ball bearings in and I upgraded to a 12turn motor. Haha, that thing was INSANLY fast. That little truck is so much fun and I have a whole bunch of spare parts for it which is nice. But I would throw on ball bearings and upgrade your ESC and motor .

So - how did it go with the Lunch Box? Any Pics yet? I am also fixing up my old Lunch Box, Ive had it since 1987 when they first came out. I am almost done, just waiting on a ESC that I got off eBay.
