Obligatory "My Xmod" post

Here are some pictures of my Supra. It's got a Team Orion 180 motor with an 11 tooth pinion, two 3.6v Li-Ion cells, Sluggbug's CF shaft, suspension, bearings, AWD, wheels and tires, body kit, and mirage paint.

I sanded the body with 2000 grit paper (which I should have done a lot more of to smooth out some of the spots where I glued the body pieces on). Then I masked the windows using plain old brown masking tape. Then I cleaned the car with a baby wipe (those things are handy! Dads know what I'm talking about). Then I applied five base coats, four paint coats, and four clear coats. Light coats in 10 minute intervals. I'm pretty happy with the results.

As for the mods, since I've installed the motor and batteries, I haven't been able to go WOT for more than a second or two. It's *fast*.
