| Why not drive the Truck? Would be a good warm up, then when you get to your spot she's ready to rip. |

I keep looking at these, now i've seen it with the truck on top i'm gonna have to get one i think.
Looks easy and i've just found a bash spot where i need to walk a fair bit to use it. |

I made a case from plywood. 2 layers of laquer on the inside for waterproofing (when carring a muddy truck), black spray + laquer on the outside.
The remote, rotostart, some parts and fuel all fit in there too.

Your local B & Q mate.
20 quid. Couldn't believe it was that cheap. Storage boxes are normally a but of a racket and over priced. |

The truck sits with the wheels hooked around the back of the lift up handle so it's got no chance of falling off.
I've not tried an xl on it yet, but it might be the same with terrapins on. |

I was looking at the HPI carry bag but for £60 i would rather carry it by the bumper. I have a 4 mile long field 10 steps from my house but when i go the skatepark (1 Mile) its a nightmare carrying all the bits and bobs. Laptop bag or that DIY box looks the best and cheapest option. I need to get a toolbox aswell as all my parts are in the box the savage come in haha  |
