  1. hello fellow builders , i have an idea for community build off,, there is no prize , this is for the love of building i would like to here if anyone would like to join.... this is what i have in mind, the topic will be ,(compact drag truck...CBP) that will be the new post if anyone will join me in this. the basis of the build is all mini,compact trucks...... S10s, dodge D50s, rangers an so on. (NO FULL SIZE TRUCKS).. if you would like to join,, let me kw as i am on just about every day... to join your truck must be unbuilt an post a pic of your unbuilt kit with your plans for it. sry no started kit .. scratch building is a to your best ability if you cant scratch build thats ok to, kit bashin an so on... if anyone is interested please feel free to start postin , ill keep a list or the partisipents an there projects..i will then in about 2 weeks start the new topic so keep an eye out for it. why do i want to do this strange build off , well i see a lot of lowered , bagged an slammed mini trucks , witch are awsome dont get me wrong. but what would be better than a 9sec truck.... the build will go on for about 6 months or longer if need be .... you must enter the build with in 2 months to be fair to those who have entered... when i start the new topic i will then post my kit that i will be doin. and if youev seen my MPC 73 cuda build i will be scratchin this one to. so if there is anyone interested in this ( and i hope there is then lets get it on ) let me know!!! thanks guy an girls if your out there......Davin B...
