sweet.

are the hot whees rc carsany good?
stearing, stock speed?

Lord_HelmetR34 11-23-2003 03:54 PM

actually, this car wasn't RC to begin with. The HW Tunerz are just diecast models. I custom fabbed the chassis, added three cells, and the wheels. But to answer your question, the tires have a lot of grip so it launches quick and turns nicely. I think that springs would improve handling a little.

oh, ok....i wasn't sure because there are hot wheels micro rc's....but nice car!

It's been the most complicated one I have ever done. I plan on shaving the inside of the body to reduce weight. Then It will get a custom paint job to finish it off. Here's a pic with the body on.
