Default Blackdogafd's Wife Is joining the Nitro Scene

Hello Everyone!
As you all can see, I am Blackdogafd's wife. I am the one who had the baby 7 1/2 weeks ago. ( Mason is doing well and getting big!!!) Thank you all for your kind words.
I am joining the Nitro world. He got me a Traxxas T-Maxx. We are in the process of doing some upgrades and making into the perfect truck for me. Seeing as I am a very girly woman, It will be razberry(PINK) colored with butterflies when we are done. An engine upgrade is an absolute must!! Either a Traxxas TRX 3.3 or the O.S. .18 if possible. Andy is helping me with the techinical wording so I don't look like an idiot. I will post pics as soon as we can get the truck done.
I look forward to hearing good advice from anyone who can help me learn more. I have been learning on Andy's HiMoto Syclone and have done pretty good with it till yesterday. I had a bad day and broke it several times including a new sunroof in the body. Hopefully I will have better days with my T-Maxx.

Yeah, I have to be honest. I really hated these cars back in feb. Now that Andy let me use the Syclone and I have my own, I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!! The speed, the crashes, even the repair, it is great! Something that Andy and I can do together. Since we really don't get that much time having three children under 5. Brayden is 4, Julia is 23 months and Mason will be 8 weeks on Wednesday.

Thanks For reading! Will post pics as soon as i can!!!

heys guys thanks for the encouragement for my wife! she does real good driving the buggy and really hasnt crashed it beyond repair yet! lol.... but anyway we got her T-maxx in today and in the process of redoing somethings on it, (we bought it used)
but so far she loves it and we are hoping to take it out tomorrow after i get home from work for its maiden voyage as her new truck!! my buggy is now down for awhile cause it had a rough weekend!! bald tires in the rear sunroof in the body and a few other things. so its sitting for while , and i am going to be concentrating on my 3.3 revo i have now too!!!!! but have fun do the best you all can to help her feel welcome to the rc hobby..

LOL.... I saw the 3.3 at MSHs yesterday... it wasnt really appealing... other than the fact it was next to 1/8th scale LOL. TSK TSK TSK shoulda gotten an LST2...

Oh yeahhhh I thin kthe real war is LST vs. REVO... unless thats changed now..
