• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

The Mud Flap light mod

I created such a mod way back 2 years ago before anyone announced (publicly at least) any mass produced product. I got my first set of red LED's while at Laconia back in June 2008.

Since I now have the RTS, the wheels and fenders are exactly the same. But I wanted brighter LED's. Wider too. I found these and will wire them up. These are 12v units, without any pre-build flashing circuit.:2thumbs:

I created a tapered wedge insert to accommodate the curves of the outside edge of the fender. I basically took a piece of white plastic molding (Plastic wood), carved it, and cut it to shape and painted it black. 3M Automotive double-sided tape will hold it together. This stuff is supah strong!

Good job on that one.

Could you possibly post pictures of them on during the day, and then again at night, so we can see just how bright they are?
