Got my girlfriend into the hobby! Pics!
Hey all. After my girlfriend saw my 1/8 buggy about 5 months ago she became VERY interested in the hobby. So being as friggen AWSOME as she is, she picked up a Revo! She also got 40 Series Velocity 6's and Moabs, RPM A-Arms (all around) in white and we are going to dye them pink , Motor Saver air filter (I made her get that one ), and a Nissan Titan body (which will be painted pink with black stripes).
Here are some pics... we havent died the A-Arms or painted the body yet though... O and my truck (Revo with RB .23) is the one with the blue Dodge Ram body.

Nice! Same here, I took my gf to the races and she liked the way the Revo looked. Well, here we are about two months away from Christmas and she's asking me for a Revo. I'll probably get her one for Christmas.

Dam#, the first time I showed my G/F my truck I was driving it around impressing her son and she wasn't paying attention. She was walking back towards me and, about 5 feet from me I heard a yell and I hit the brakes, thank God! (this was a savage, and the brakes were WICKED) It still hit her shin, and, needless to say, she doesn't want to be around when I run! Her son still loves it and understands what went wrong.
Honestly, when ya'll get your trucks out, how many people are NOT watching the truck?!?!?!

I wouldnt mind my gf getting into it but it would prob turn out like fishing, i bait the hook, i take the fish off, she does just the fun part... give her a screwdriver and make her change her own parts LOL not that i mind working on em but i got enough of my own. Besides i let her drive my t-maxx once she went full throttle right into a parking barrier, didnt even brake or turn the wheel just panicked and drove straight into it [sm=bananahead.gif]

O and I just finished up breaking in my RB .23 and it is a BEAST! This thing is absolutly crazy. Holds a great tune and absolutly hauls. Very nice engine, and it sounds really nice with my Trinity High Flow exhaust.
