The Slash platform is awesome, there's lots of choices depending what your budget is. I race a Slash at a carpet track in South West Missouri and I love it. It super durable and lots of fun. Best part it was a kit and lots of fun putting it together. Thanks for the videos.

First, always a in pleasure Alex. Great content. DELTA PLASTIC ROCKS!! Violet has a violet paint job on her truck. Oh mush! Too cute. Yeah, I am one of those Arrma cosmonauts. And Delta seems like a good match for some Arrma platforms. I have bought from Delta some time ago. It's great that you mentioned them.

Its funny, this video couldnt be more perfectly timed. Just this week, after doing some unpacking in the new house, I found an old RC Car Action magazine from 1996 (August Issue), that had a cover story of converting an old, uncompetitive 2WD buggy, into a bashable rally car. It was a fun trip down memory lane. And, honestly, the only reason why i bought that issue of RC Car Action all those years ago...was because it had a Rally Car on the cover. A Celica ST-185 in the classic Castrol TTE livery. Was, and still is, my favorite WRC car of all time. Because if you dont like Pop-Up headlights, we cant be friends. This is not debatable, its just fact. I think its about time i make that project from 1996 happen. Thanks Adult Money!

I’ve been really getting into rally ever since I played the video game “Art of Rally”.. you can race as the Celica in the game as well as all the other icons😎 I’d love to see that old magazine - sounds awesome 👍

My first RC car was a 2WD Slash, like most folks. I run it in my front yard, and jump it on a homemade adjustable ramp. I would love to work on a custom lexan body. Painting is new to me as well. Thanks for the tips. 🌻

Yea man my advice on painting is do a bunch of LIGHT coats.. don’t try to get it done in 2-3 coats, instead do a bunch like 5-10 depending on the color & paint

Looks awesome! Very akin to my Magnus Walker Porsche 911 build. I love how you equate a Slash 2wd to a proper Porsche build. I agree, 100%, rear engine, air cooled, rear wheel drive. It’s a perfect match! Great build, and I’m happy to see you really beating on it and enjoying it! I might have to build a rally Porsche now!!

I think it is technically a 1/8 body that fits well on a 1/10th scale short course truck chassis.. If you think about the size of a 911 compared to a short course truck, the 911 is significantly smaller vehicle in real life.
