The Fixxer's "Blue Ice"

[TheFixxer]

During the course of Rags to Riches and the Black Widow builds I ended up with a lot of stock parts. For those of you not familiar with TRX pedes and slashes they are the same truck except the chassis, steering, and tires. Front and rear ends are identicle. So my boy wanted to play trucks, I had enough parts to build another pede for him to rough around with. This is Blue Ice





















Features: This truck is more stock that hop ups but is still pretty tough although it is the least ran of all my trucks. It was built about 9 months ago but the boy turned 13 and has moved onto girls for the moment. lol

Not bad for a bunch of left over parts.

Thanks, 95% of the chassis is stock traxxas, just upgraded the primary weak points. Don't drive this rig much but the boy gets out once and awhile when he gets the spark. We only run it on NiMH 7cell battery packs. Maybe if my son gets past this puberty thing he will get the addiction started like me and this truck will take on a better form.
