Here are some pics of my 2 drag racers.. First is my FTTC3 and the next is my E-Pede with its off-road tires on..
I run both with D-3 10turn trips and c2 esc's... Pede has custom t-6 cambers and a few other goodie.. After I build the trailer for the TC3 I will post pic's of them together ...

Thanks guys.. I know they arent hunks of junk but I was in a crazy mood.....
I CANNOT take credit for these 2 shells .. Dkangel can definatley take all sorts of credit for the Mustang Saleen....
And Andy from Andys Custom Graphics can take credit for the E-pede body....
Now lets get down to brass tax about this whole Pede on a TC3 thing.. There is only so much space on the hood of my pick-up truck and the pede had to lay down the law as to whom is supeior in the way of finding a parking spot....LOL..
Thanks for the undeserved compliements guys .... See ya BDV

I was just busting your chops with the shell comment.
:p
And about the parking thing, the Pede may be bigger but the TC3 can get to that empty spot faster!!!
Here's a little better pic of the stang body....;)

Drive em heck I race the crap out of both of them... Against Pede's mine is 45 and 0 .. Some of those races however were against the same Pede on different or the same days with the other owners doing some mods to them.. In 2 45 cases Id say they needed some more mods...LOL
The FTTC3 is 10 and O with a big win against an almost stock E-maxx.... It was close but nothing a car and a half length couldnt call..LOL.. He ran 2 Green Machines with 2400's and I ran my 10t tripple with a matched 3300... Excelleration beat brute strength.. HUH, who would have thought..LOL
Thanks for looking guys and DK, I may be getting in touch with you again about a new shell.. I just have to get rid of some of my high dollar Star Wars Masks first...
See ya and thanks again for looking , BDV BTW, that is much nicer pic of the Mustang (but it doesnt have my truck under it)..LOL..
And the parking issue should stand at this, Even if you were to beat me to the parking spot, I would just park on top of you..LOL.. See ya

What brand of blue did you use for that pede body?I would VERY much like to use it for my next one.thanks.

It was custom blended using Createx Pear Blue, Faskolor Purple, Faschange Blue, and Faschange Purple.... It gives it a really cool look in the sunlight.

Could you remix it at will?I will be needing a body in a couple months,and that is the EXACT color I want for it.

I'm tellin you guys you cant go wrong picking these 2 guys to paint your shells... Seriously those pics of the Pede body dont even come close to doing it justice.. When the sun hits it it looks like its going 30 standing still... I get nothing but rave reviews on it...
The Mustang gets all the fan fare too especially when we set it up next to my buddies stunt bike that I had it modled after......
These 2 guys Rock...
Now I know there are allot of quality painters out there especially here on this board .. But these 2 guys have done nothing but follow my instructions to the letter.. And when left to their own devises they came up with some brilliant paint work especially in desighn and color choice... They explained what the colors do (ways of changing and backing colors) and then we went from there.. These cars may look like just another flame job for a wannabe throw back to the 50's but they do all sorts of changing in the sunlight...
Thanks again guys fantastic jobs...
Take care and rememebr I you need refs I am your man..... Paint on , BDV
