Ok, before you start telling me there is already one of these, go search again, tell me how old it is, it is dead, and there are many misc post on the rc18's but not a specific one. So i figured id make one. So if you have a rc18 post all your questions pictures and anything else related to them HERE!! Well i just got mine today, really fun and durable, i plan on getting a gear cover and hopefully metal rear diff gears. Hera are some pics.
YEAH, now I don't have to clog up the thread with random posts..... here are some links to vids I have put together with my truck, they are cheesy, but who cares.

As of now the only 2 upgrades I have on the truck are a gear cover, (I swear, you NEED one), and a metal diff gear (good for when the plastic "dies"). I am looking at this LONG line of upgrades, [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=8001&cat_name=RC18T]RPM Wide Bumper[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=7299&cat_name=RC18T#]Heatsink WITH cooling fan[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=6420&cat_name=RC18T#]Titanium Turnbuckles[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=6553&cat_name=RC18T#]Aluminum steering assembly (to cut down on slop)[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=8444&cat_name=RC18T]Wing, designed for vendetta, who cares[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=8775&cat_name=RC18T]RC18B Wing Mount[/link], [link=http://www.thetoyz.com/cart/thetoyz_details.lasso?id=9388&cat_name=RC18T]Another set of metal diff gears (for front diff)[/link], the total of all my "ideas" is, $70, the reason why I am looking at titanium is they come with the tool, steel doesn't (kindof lame)
WOW all of that and only 70 bux. Where does the rc18b wingmounts mount on the car? I looked at the wing mounts and they look to only have one hole for the screw to go through, and im looking at my car (18MT) and it has two screws where i think the wing mounts. thanx
Aaron
it mounts on the rear tower, prob by friction, I would secure it in with a little hot glue
