First of all, the Grid forums has an area for it already, with info on the truggy and the buggy...

Since it's still 100% stock, visit the Ace Hobbies site and see it there. You know me, can't get a new body until I thoroughly destroy the stock one. I'll be adding the wing mount, and saving for better tires. First steps will be to install the JR rx and degrease/fill the diffs. That's a fair amount of work for me.

My first plan of attack. Install the JR pro I just bought. (droppin my spek DX2,JR just feels better in my hand). Then finishing the break in on the motor. Then moving on to the diff's,shocks(if needed,I am picky!),and new body(not sure from where yet). 1-2 sets of rims/tires is not out of the question. I have the RC Driver mag that has the ST-1 in it and they said the tires grip well.
Jp-2 pipe and bump start also. Who knows what will be next after that.

I agree on the lazy part. I get home and I am done for the day. Just killin on PS2(socom3),on here or watch tv. I am so lazy,I have yet to race out there yet! I have other reasons to why I have yet to go.

Casketman, if you want a new stocker body, the guy I bought the truggy from has an orange one for sale. I think he's looking for $20 for it. fctryseald is his user name.
