I don't know about the flat black idea. I'm not a fan of that personally. I guess it looks cool on the right vehicle but as a teenager of the 90's I'm more drawn to flashy things. Not saying this truck is or will be flashy but that's where I would go if I liked painting.lol At any rate, I am happy to get another person on board with creating a totally useless category of truck! This thing would be a lot more fun if I had some smooth pavement close by or access to an arena. I am curious as to how fast it would go if given the space. I'm sure if it had 3rd gear it would probably do 20mph or so. Right now as soon as I touch the throttle it spins out in second on the shop floor. I only have about 20' of open space so it's hard to tell what it's really doing. These tires get no traction what so ever on the front or rear...Perfect!
Who knows RW, maybe my next purchase will inspire you as well
