I got it Friday.. lol.

I didi this body up all quick and simple to get it running with a body (RC18's are hard to tell which is front and back without a body on! lol). Later I will get a crowd Pleaser body for it.

Squirrel, do yourself a favor and re-read the thread Six wrote when he got the 18T. MiniT;s are ok but 18T's kick it up a notch or two in handling (and cost). Drive them both befor you buy one. I wish I had.

dave your opinion is well recieved! i understand the handling thing 4wd vs 2wd no question! but i want a mini-t because i have it's older brother already. a mini-t + xxx-nt! that and for some strange reason i love 2wd trucks? to me they are more fun than 4wd. but this is my opinion now.

Then you have considered the choices! Make an informed decision and you can't go wrong.
I do have to give the Mini props for simplicity. Without 4wd theres a lot less parts to keep alive and well.

i have an informed decision, i love the mini-t even though i haven't owned one yet. now the only thing is to learn about elec cause unless it's a tyco i have no clue!

Looks great. I like the overspray on letters.

Thanks everyone!

hehe.. I love the combo of the "chiller" font and rough lines on the lettering. I did it first on a white body I painted for my JT maxx a hwile ago. Its almost like some little tiny gnome came by and tagged the side of it! lol.
