Dude that car is Killer. , .

Thank you so much for the kind words this car still has a lot left in it and there are still things i would like to do in the future with this beautiful. Also i ran her for the first time yesterday and she was a blast i was able to hold full throttle down my road for 1 1\2 to 2 secs no problem. Here's her first after run pic.

I was super impressed\blown away with how well she handled even got a thumbs up from a guy driving by my street and a guy saw it and said it was sick (The good kind). I also have another Arrma on road coming soon, can you guess what it will be? it's a 1\8 scale 3s car and it was available for $200 last year but i got it as a roller\slider.

My guess would be a Detta. .

You are right there, Managed to pick up a brand new rolling chassis\slider off eBay it needs the typical items needed to complete if you ever bought a slider from a eBay rc chop shop. Even though the 3s Infraction went on sale $100 off it's $400 base price but i still wanted a real Vendetta despite them getting discontinued late last year i was hoping i could still get one. And this month i just happened to have enough funds to buy the slider and tires i got a set of white compound 2.4" Hoons the belted ones.

So how big was your smile when you took it on it's first run?

Hi everyone, I got to my Felony aka Serena II this evening and i had a total blast running her i think she has earned her spot as the best driving on road car i've ever driven as well as the most fun i've ever had with an on road car. After some minor adjustments she goes straight and drifts\powerslides when you want her to and handles amazing. I'm so happy i bought her even if i had to cannibalize my XO-1 to make it run although i did get that car back up and running yesterday.

Here's a picture after today's run.

That's all for now, I also have another Arrma on road car coming in tomorrow i think some of you will know what it will be.

Nice build. Like the twin turbo / intercooler hood install. Really sets the car off and makes a statement she's a runner.

How's that SR6200 AVC working on this project? -AC

I thought i would do the turbo\intercooler setup since i don't see others use more often than the big supercharger with scoop on it which i see all the time on these cars. I like my Spektrum radio so far but i still need to get a better servo that will actual center properly to really see how well AVC actually works. I'm currently working on getting my old Traxxas XO-1 back up and running so i'm not sure when i'll be getting back this car but i'll make sure to keep everyone posted here on my projects.

I like the turbo install for survivability over the GMC blower/injector hat config too. Good choice.

Have the old-school blower install on my MT10 stock, but opted for a turbo install on the two bodies for my mod MT10.

Looking forward to following your progress. -AC

Thanks so much, Glad you like my car i have some plans for it next year like a new Protoform C8 Corvette body and new electronics like another MMX8s\1717 combo, new servo and another Spektrum receiver for it to run my DX6C and my future iXSR that i'll be getting sometime next year.

Here's a long overdue update on this project, I recently pulled the Max 6 g1 combo and sold it to buy a stock Spektrum firma 150 v2 combo out of a brand new Kraton 6s EXB RTR also bought some parts to repair broken bits on the car like the splitter, splitter mount and body clips with tethers. Here's some pics of what i installed today on the car.

Old and new splitter.

New splitter and mount installed with all new splitter mounting screws.

Next week i should be getting the new esc and motor for this car in and after a couple of runs i'll be due for a new set of Hoons.

So today's the day i got the stock Spektrum combo in the mail and also got it installed in the car awaiting the loctite to cure. So maybe tomorrow or Wednesday i'll get out and run her with this new setup.

 

[CJSRCLIFE]

Today i finally got to run my Felony with the new stock combo and she performed well. She even went 60Mph down my street.
