Speedy Pete race Truck

Here is my TL01 based racing semi. This truck is built on the Tamiya TL01 AWD chassis and is running a 26 turn Cobalt racing motor and 11.1 Lipo to say this truck is a hand full is a under statement.. There is some video footage of it doing some high speed roll overs some where.

Paint job must not look that good if you have rolled it a few times:rolleyes:. I seem to remember this build from the Garden.

Lynn really not much damage has been done I cracked one front fender but was able to glue it with out realy being able to see it and the stacks make a perfect roll bars so the top of the grill gets some little marks on it but I put a little clear tape on it to keep that from happening when I drive it.

LOL I might have to make some vid of it myself. I like to drift in the garage with it as when I get it out on the street at speed the thing get really harry I put oil filled shocks on it and that helped they use to make sway bars for this car but I have not been able to find them it could really use them bad.
