Hi all,

Thought id share this with you,

Decided the mammoth could do with a strip clean and repair. Now its all ready to take back to the field so i can shit it up again, but faster!

next on the list is the hyper 7, it looks like its been thrown in a swamp!!

way worse than mammoth was, but fortunately smaller. mammoth took 5 hours from start to finish, should have hyper done in 3 (fingers crossed).

Looks great mate good job :clap: :thumbs_up:
I really like your shell aswell, cool sticker on the back :lol: :thumbs_up:

Yeh wonder how long you keep it clean!

But getting then dirty is half the fun, but i dont like looking at it dirty,lol so i clean mine all the time aswell, but taking it apart and cleaning it is fun aswell..

HAPPY RC-ING :rc_car:
