Sony DR10 is possessed completely has a mind of its own but behaves way better when I bash on it so that means it identifies as a stunt truck right lol actually it’s a radio issue but still I bashed on it all day and didn’t break anything sept the corner of the bumper I’m so beyond impressed and I was so wrong in my original thought process I love the car and the body
 
My son tries to bash our DR10. He loves doing a run and on the way back he likes to whip the steering back and forth to watch the body roll side to side. So much so he's worn the paint off the front fenders.

She literally drives it likes she trying to either set a drag car high jump, or how many things can I hit at once, record.

Oh, you have one of those "high maintenance " girlfriends 😝

I actually think the DR10 chassis would make a pretty good basher. The Challenger body on it though I'd have to swap to something more appropriate. Something like a Subaru rally body, with some chunky tires would be pretty cool.

Nah, she isn't high maintenance, just her RC's are, because she drives them like she stole them and the cops and her grandmother are after her. As for the DR10, all it is a Prosc10 chassis and shocks, with SR10 driveshafts, turnbuckles, and lower arms. This is her DR10 side by side with my Prosc10:

How we did hers was to buy this chassis: https://www.ebay.com/itm/3133976648...m397HDCTZC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
And the wheels and tires, since I already had the ESC and motor from my Prosc10 parts truck, but, if you wanted more of a rally style, you could buy that chassis and the SR10 wheels and tires, then just find a rally body that will fit a short course truck.

The entire list of parts that differ between the DR10 and Prosc10 are:
Front body mounts
Lower arms
Driveshafts
Turnbuckles
Bumpers
Wheels and tires
Body

My plan is to get another one of those chassis, and some SCT wheels and tires, and put the purple DR10 body on it (we got all 4 DR10 bodies when AE was having the buy 1, get 3 free deal).

Edit: One thing I forgot to add, the SR10 uses pretty much all the same parts the DR10/Prosc10/Trophy Rat does, just with a shorter chassis, which means, any of the HD DR10M parts will work in any of those cars. All of our AE cars (DR10, Prosc10, Trophy Rat (currently in pieces) and SR10 (actually my brothers car)) all have the DR10M metal diff upgrade: ASC72106: https://www.amainhobbies.com/team-associated-metal-transmission-gear-conversion-asc72106/p1398342

That's what I meant. High maintenance as in you gotta fix all the RC bangs and bruises. My first wife was high maintenance. She wrecked her 1:1 car 5 times in a year 😜

I don't fix her cars though, she does. About the only thing I do is set the gear mesh, and set end points. She does the rest. Every car she has that was a build project was all her.
 
I’m not gunna lie I ask alot of questions because I don’t know how to do alot but I actually get very frustrated if he tries to do it for me now that being said I’m also aware that if he says to let him do it there is a very good and legitimate reason for it especially because that doesn’t happen often if ever… nope going in I was of the mindset that this was a pointless build bc I wasn’t going to like a road car that I could only drive in a straight line but oh how wrong I was on every single part of that theory now if it was the snake and mongoose that I will be building in the future n it so much as got a bit of dust on it I would probably be in a corner crying lol

Ours is starting to crack at the front bumper too. That body is so fragile.
 
Storm drain picture a classic!! Who hasn't done that? Usually only once. Only a few will admit to it. Yours is a first by actually capturing an image for all time.

Back in the day actually backed a RC down a storm drain. It was rolling backwards and I thought I was braking it when actually engaging reverse. Too bad. So sad. Long gone. Live and learn. Good luck bashing your drag car. 'AC'

Thank you but unfortunately and I’m not lieing ask biggman100 I can’t take claim for putting it in the drain it put itself there I said it is possessed I wasn’t joking…. No in all seriousness it was all fun and games with the radio issue till this the picture doesn’t show it but there is no logically possible explanation for it not falling all the way down then the minute I moved the the front end it put itself full on into a brick sign then we changed radios needless to say…..that being said I still had of course I had to get a picture it’s epic hey the way I see it is if I’m no smiling laughing and having fun why am I doing it n if I can share the epicness good bad or otherwise I’m going make someone else smile laugh learn or hey if all else fails maybe even make em mad whatever works lol 😝

I almost lost my rustler down the drain. I flipped while going over the curb and yea. Good thing I caught it in time.

Tbh if it had gone down the drain idk what I would have done probably just stood there and started at it

Hey sweet beans I have 2 records to work on now thanks

Idk what I would do either. I don't want to loose a 200 dollar RC that I put 600 dollars plus into. 200 dollar RC. I put 600 plus into it. And it still breaking.
 
Knowing my luck nope it wouldn’t break but it’d be stuck i wouldn’t be able to get it back out again and it’s just sit there and mock me and laugh at me just saying
