    That is my Wraith. Not my SCX10.

    The body you painted was for my SXC10.

    Hey guys...what do you think of the Slash 4x4? Losi SCTE

    I want something to bash

    I have been to the track but it' just too involved and too much time tuning.

    I am looking for something that I can take to the desert or a empty field and just bash around. No organized track. Just something fast to compliment my SCX10s.

    I like the 4x4 cause they handle well. I want a SCT cause I like the look.

    Let's just say I put my slash threw the paces. Dropped it in salt water, jumped it off the top of my Tacoma. my boy ran it in a brick wall, my garage and at my tire on the Tacoma

    Still running strong.

    I put it in water ever chance I get. As you can tell in the video I post.

    I am Triing to break it and so far I have failed.

    Hell I have ran the motor till it got soo hot I couldn't touch it.

    Still running like a champ

    Oh a guy at the lhs said he jumped his off a 2nd story balcony and nothing broke

    Greg what do you have to do to waterproof the battery? Do I have to use Nimh or can Lipos be used? I like the waterproof thing that is why i want it.
