Got the body done (even though I did a rubbish job) and the parts I was waiting for arrived in the mail so she's finally back together and will be tested tomorrow and racing a buddy on Sat.

What is it?

I think onroad for me is like a boat. I want one, but then after driving with my abilities for 5 minutes, I'd be bored. Seems like something you really need other people or a track to have fun. Well, that and skill. lol

It's a Lightning STR. Or was. Hardly anything on it is stock anymore.

She runs beautifully. I had to raise the body up a notch as it was hitting the ground all the time but besides that she's flawless.

Nice! Paint looks good. Love those gold wheels. I just picked up a Lightning STR. Awesome car.

Lots of fun to be had with these cars. If you plan on doing anything to it I'd highly suggest steel gears and swapping the VX .16 for the VX .18 and getting the tuned pipe and manifold. Plus the steel gears help center some of the weight.
