lol..yep ..thats what they are Thunder_Tiger ;)...

and they do scratch ..the tips are pretty sharp ..made to drill in steel ;)...took them out for a spin today , they give a good bite on ice ,but not enough to pop wheelies .. but they did leave pretty nice grooves in my driveway :p ..hehe.

i also glued a piece of fabric inside each tire before putting the screws ..that way the tires dont balloon like they used to ..it was a bit scary the way they stretched at high speeds ..lol...i didnt want them to shred apart with the added weight of the screws ;)
 
err......yeah, i can imagine the results of a tyre shred, multiple unwanted new body piercings.....

macguyver, I can't remember why or what they were being used for, but my father and i were using them for something once and i soon learnt to respect those drill screws as they are evil little devils to say the least. They don't just drill steel either, they will drill most anything, wood, plastic fibreglass et al.

I would HATE to be in the way if one of the tyres let go with them in.....

As an aside, you say you put fabric behind ? If you get a new set of tyres, try using duct tape on the inside, you effectively "Belt" the tyre inside to stop the ballooning, much like you did with the fabric under the drill screws
 
ya i did think about the duct tape ..but i figured the glue would dry up and the tape would peel off the tire after a while ..i know duct tape does that ...i used fabric strips from some old jeans and glued them in with ''shoe goo'' ..that glue lasted 10 years on my boots ..so i figured it would be good for that as well ;)

and i wouldnt want to be in the way either if one would rip off..lol
 
if you had said denim and shoe goo before, i would prolly have commented on the strength of the denim. That stuff is strong, but on shoe goo ? that's gonna last a donkeys age
 
what do you mean by ''donkeys age '' ?? that it wont last ?? or that it will last for ever ?? ..sorry ..french guy here ..lol

the goo is good stuff ..been using that for years on all kinds of stuff ..lol..even good to patch up your old jeans ..it will outlast the jeans ..trust me ;).

but the fumes are wicked ..lol
 
donkeys age = english expression meaning it will last for forever (not necessarily literally, but figuratively)

I,m the boy.

Just got done at the local track open pratice. At the start had an lrp .28 and swiched too an hpi 4.6. The lrp gave up today end of its life. Still i had fun.
 
I'll get you guys some pics of the B with my TC4 and RC18 tomorrow :D

RCA's MT2 and the Green Revo kick ass :hehe:

Really liking the B with the GBE EB too...

Was a slayer, wanted to convert it to a revo, traded my SC10 for a 2.5r roller, ended up still using the slayer chassis for the revo. so now i have to decide if i just want a bunch of extra parts or make a blue chassis slayer lol

heres my NTC3+ have to redo the clear part of the body to match my real car again. (04 Jr Monte SS)

Thanks! I twisted the chassis and broke the front shock tower/bulkhead. One of these days I will get that damn thing back together. It is a damn fast little rig!

ok if i did this right:

is should go, my husbands savage ( he just traded his lightening stadium pro for it) then the rc10gt the one that started it all, then my pride and joy my Losi LST:D

Damn, I gotta say I am impressed! A RC10GT AND a LST??? My kinda girl! Sorry to hear about the hubby... LMAO!!!
 
I tried posting another pic. It didn't work. I added more crap to mine, wanted to post a pic. Oh well it's in the first post.

Ok I've got photobucket but I can't get my pics from there to here.

I added a tekno fuel tank/rx box conversion, mbx5t tank, sway bar kit, and finally a 2.4 gh radio. It's a trx one but oh well that's a start. I'm not sure yet about the center diff, I'm probably gonna bash it 90% of the time. Maybe this spring I'll rent a dozer and build a lil track.:D

In PhotoBucket you will have a link like this
. Copy and paste that link here to embed your pictures.

I use www.tinypic.com. Works a lot easier. Choose the size you want and upload the image. Then copy and paste. So easy I can do it...
