THE TOASTY GHOST
This truck is the very definition of "Cyko Racing". Period.
When I first purchased this truck, little did I know - The Traxxas Rustler isn't really most competitive stadium truck in the world... Not even by a long shot. Stock, the Duratrax Evader will smoke this truck straight up. We learned that when 2kan bought his quite a while after mine. But anywho, the truck was upgradeable. YAY!! And after 2 years of it being my baby, it's transformed into what it is now.

The Brushless powerplant is the heart of this cyko machine, with top speeds approching 65 km/h easy. I didn't get too much driving time before the weather became unfavourable for driving and also I broke the front left everything after an unfortunate encounter with a street curb during a 1/2 throttle powerslide.
R/C is not a hobby, It's an Addiction.
Note: This truck is not flashy... yet. More pics will come when I get it fixed up and ready to go
A two speed transmission and all custom clear/aluminum parts are on the drawing board
