Hey everyone... Wanted to make a thread were people could post there custom nitro trucks so i can see what people do with theirs... trying to learn about nitro trucks and how to upgrade them:D
 
What do you mean by custom? Like a (worlds mos awesome, strongest, fastest, most badassest RC) tmaxx with a painted shell and aftermarket control arms, or a hand built from scratch RC?
 
Just wait Taylor, Snook Man will be here shortly.
 
Okay, for starters here's a Savage X that's been extended and the only stock part on the entire rig is the 4.6 engine (with Nova cooling head), soon to be replaced by probably a .28. Slightly over 2 grand in it so far.

SchrodeMode what is that rc car in ur profile pic... looks sick
 
It's my LST XXL, I've got some 1/5 scale tires on it. Here's my thread on it, I really need to get it back together. If not to run it, I'd like to at least not be shipping parts, it'll probably take 2-3 months for it to get to my next house.

Dang that thing is sick
 
Thanks man, it's actually pretty stock. Greywolf has a few trick LSTs, his electric one is pretty decked out and has a custom shell.
 
Do you know were i can get some sick shells? and some sick wheels?
 
You could check Proline Racing, I'm not sure if you'll find anything LISTED as being compatible with your truck though. I think your's has 12mm hexes, if that's the case, look at Proline's 1/10 scale truck line.
 
Alright thanks man
 
Whats that on side of your truck avelcairio
 
Here are a few of mine. Here's my mERV with custom shell and 2.2 wheels:

Here's a head on view of my RC-18r wearing its "Eleanor" shell.

It has a full c/f chassis and lots of aluminum parts. The only stock pieces are the drive shaft and motor mount. Here it is with its "Bumblebee" shell:

Its final shell is the "Krusty Burger Special" that I painted up:

Here is my first hobby grade RC. It's an RC-18t with nothing stock left on it and another custom lid:

Heres my LST2-E Conversion... I purchased a few more red aluminum hop ups for it like bellcrank, shock towers, steering knuckles, and a couple others I can't think of right off that are not in this initial pics.

The mERV has 2.2 beadlocks, TiN shocks, center diff, aftermarket motor mount/heatsink and titanium links all around. It also has an SVT Raptor shell on it now.
 
I’ll throw a few builds in the mix.
