The Pink and White Chevy is a Slash that I converted to drag racing, upgraded the motor and ESC. The red Truck is out of the box Drag Slash.

I haven't raced anyone yet, still getting my feet wet in the whole RC world. I need an extra hand to run them side by side. I tried to run the white and pick one back when it was a blue VW bug but the car swerved to the left, hit my Ford Flex, and shattered. The white and pink body is the second one for that car. RC is a lot of fun. Just as much customization as any other car related hobby.

Maybe we can get together before snow hits and I can be your other hand !! Oh and go somewhere were there are no cars or anything to run into !

I love the look of the truck for sure. I'm tempted to get a Superbird/Daytona for one of the cars. I have always been a fan of the wing cars and now that DriveRC has released it money is burning a hole in my pocket.

I'm always looking for areas to run the cars. I believe a scale 1/4 mile is 132 feet. I'm down to see what these cars will do.

Honestly, I was looking at the drive between the bank and The Rock. That or there is a parking lot at the building behind it. I have just been doing test hits in Viking Club parking lot for now but I don't think it is long enough. I haven't been to South Park in so long, is the parking lot full of pot holes?

Need to find a parking lot that just freshly been redone
