Hot Rod Steam Roller. I would run it unless you hate it, or try to sell it for what you have in it and get something else. It is different and looks good.

It is a steam roller yeah, but a fast one. I would never sell it though for the simple reason that I would never even get 1/4 of the $$$$ back, even from parting it out. This ones a keeper, and I love running it- especially since I just installed the RC4WD aluminium 2nd gear output gear; no more weak points in the tranny....

I think he meant the body.... :neutral:

Ah, right- Dime bar moment, sorry. :whistle:

I cant trash the body for the simple reason my awesome drag-bar works too well; I havent had the truck upside down since I installed it. I might sell the shell though, we'll see how I feel on sunday (the best day to sell stuff on fleebay)....

:lol:

Just because I called a few people hopeless, and implied a few others were ignorant morons , and asked God why he is punishing me (with so many noobs posting stupid questions).... Definately not going back this time.

You're better off here anyway! LOL!

suicideneil 11.19.2008 07:03 PM

The noobs are safer if Im kept here at any rate... :whistle:

I think what tipped me over the edge was one guy saying he read the Erevo FAQ, but there wasnt much info about the erevo or making it BL in there.... :/

Didnt turn out anything like the little image I had in my brain, but Im happy enough with it. I kinda made the mistake of thinking these acrylic paints would handle much like normal acrylics, but saddly not (they dry too quickly, and dont seem to have the same covering power). I also kinda screwed up the blending abit- should have bought a jar of black too in order t make the dark blue paint fade away, rather than being a clear divide between the black and dark blue as it tails off.

Overall, an enjoyable experience, but I understand why guys use airbrushes and stencils, and why they charge so much for the more intricate designs.

:rofl::lol:

Glad I could be of assistance, however, I wont be able to help 'over there' ever, ever again (despite my best efforts with proxy servers and hidden IP adresses)...

What's_nitro? 11.25.2008 06:00 PM

Have you "contacted the administrator" yet? :rofl:

BL_RV0 11.25.2008 08:37 PM

Is it even possible to contact the admin? You're IP banned... :tongue:

suicideneil 11.26.2008 07:49 PM

I cant be assed. If they want the forum policed by nazis who delete random posts for no good reason, or ban people just because they may have implied the local inhabitants were total retards who cant read and need spoon feeding info in order to do anything and everything, then I dont wanna play that game anymore. The mods over there are just mods, they dont offer much if any real technical advice, they are just there to keep the place free from Brits with a sense of humour and a dislike of plebs. good luck to them is all I can say.

In other news, when are the larger Medusas going to be for sale- I noticed the 80mm versions had vanished form the RCM store - I needs an 80mm 2000kv item.... :neutral:

BL_RV0 11.26.2008 07:54 PM

If you don't mind me asking, what is a pleb?

suicideneil 11.26.2008 08:06 PM

:rofl:

Pleb is like numpty = idiot/moron/halfwit etc etc. Its one of those beautiful English expressions that you never see on foreign forums unless someone like me joins... :mdr:
