I have the most insane wheel envy right now. >__< I want wheels. Everyone has wheels! WHEELS! DSLFAKJDFLASKDFJ

But it's okay. The only reason I haven't jumped into the new wheel ownership is because of how picky I am. I don't want to spend $800 to $2000 on wheels and then hate them when I get them.

Maybe I should go look at some more wheel posts.

You should definitely spend a lot of time picking the ones you like best, cause you're the one who has to drive around on them.

Haha thanks man... Ive had the hood since October, then on the the 13th... Friday mind you, it was keyed... I was torn, my I got it recleared and the guys who did it did an AMAZING job, it looks 10x better than the factory clear gel coat. AND my CF wont fade now, I recommend getting it clear coated with a good acrylic clear... thats what they did for mine and it feels like glass

Lol yeah he's pretty cool

Ive never really been into RC hobbies, but before I could drive I used to have a Nissan Skyline R34 X-Mod... haha they are like 7 inches long and you can take out their engines, springs, tires, bearings, steering rack, Rwd or AWD, Drive shafts, diff's etc. They were cool but mine broke, they were realistic but most of everything was made of plastic and unfortunately the way they accelerated the diff was connected the tires and spun them via ball and socket joint. The ball and socket joint was made of plastic and eventually broke, and they make no spare parts for that. So id have to buy a new car for $50 and I then never got back into it... http://www.xmodsource.com/gallery/

LOL @ at my peak of being into RC hobbies (teenage years) I use to think $45 for a Aluminum A-ARM instead of a plastic one was expensive. LOL. Now that I have money (not rich or w/e but yea) I am considering changing as much as possible into Aluminum body parts. Its fun. I want to get a MAZDASPEED 8 now, electric though, since that will only be driven on flat surfaces, and its much easier to clean :yesnod; COOL DUDE. Tell your pops I said "your cool old man" LOL.
