"Roads, where we're going we don't need roads"
Hey guys, so a few months ago I put my name on a contact list for one of these:
http://store.rc4wd.com/Hardcore-Slash-G10-Upgrade-Kit-_p_1085.html
When I finally received the e-mail saying they were back in stock I didn't hesitate to order one, since I had no idea if they would ever be released again, but now that I have it what should I do with it? Sell it to a friend or use it. To help answer my own question I did some googling and found this photo: http://www.ultimaterc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=165737
Now the body should be easy enough to come by I see them on the bay all the time, but I wanted to use these tires:

http://prolineracing.com/tires/dirt-hawg-i-2.2-m2-medium-all-terrain-buggy-rear-tires/
To make it easy I've already picked up a "slightly" used VXL system for the power plant. I love how the previous owner didn't make eye contact when I asked him how used the motor/ESC combo was...lol.
First Problem.
I can't seem to find a rims that don't look like 2WD dish rims. I would like something that resemble a 5 spoke muscle car rims, or if you guys have any ideas of something that looks like...like...like um, well let's just say I'm liking that Vegas rat rod show, yes the T.V show on discovery channel.
Second problem.
Does anyone know if there are parts to bullet proof the transmission that this chassis is supposed to use....sorry you'll have to see the above rc4wd link. I don't have much more parts than the chassis, and tires at the moment.
