Popular Post Taurus Racer 13 Posted August 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2018 Man they are leafers. If you go back to 1987 or 88 all trucks were on a normal truck chassis or old army chassis . What kind of chassis do you want me to use ? Only thing different about the trucks back then was the bodies and the wheel base and maybe the motor and drive train. I am a older guy who just loves monster trucks. I work 10 and 11 hour days. I do this in my very little spare time and I am deff not a pro at building these trucks . They will not be perfect by far but will be 100 % better than the originals . I really do this for my self because I like the old school trucks I grew up with and they did not exist on here. I was baffled at how many downloads the original packs got so when I got better at building I wanted to try and improve them and most people like the new trucks way better. I have built 50 trucks this year not saying that I am going for quantity over quality but they are as good as I can do and I have had no help doing this except for Barret who paints about 10% of the trucks and CIRA racer helped set up some better handling but all the building was done by my self . I would love to know how to make long or short wheel bases and stuff but that's over my pay grade. I am sorry if you don't like them its the best I can do. I have tried to make small differences in the chassis a little but there is not much you can do with a old leafer. I think every body that builds on here tries to do do it to the best of their ability. This kind of negative feed back like (kind of ugly IMHO) makes me want to say screw it and just keep them for my self. Maybe try a little help full tip or build a variety of awesome chassis that I can use if you know what you are doing. If you think these suck just go look at the older packs that have a combined # of 6346 down loads. Sorry every body else had to read this rant but this just kills my motivation. If you guys what to see these get released or not let me know Because I all ready have them lol and a select few of my friends have some of the finished ones. Here are some the different set ups I have tried to make. PS why did you hit the heart button if they suck so bad? By the way I am not mad I just thought I was doing something that people would like but I have been getting some negative comments and not just from you Its all good here here. Digger fan quit spoiling these guys you are killing me lol 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3ForLife Customs Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 A new Addition to the K.I.W. Race Team: FIRST OR WORST meant to be a play on the phrase "First or worse" used, in drag racing, if both drivers commit a foul, the driver who commits the foul first loses, unless it is two different fouls, where, in that case, the loser is the driver who committed the worse foul. Obviously twisted, our meaning is if you ain't first you're the worst, you might as well be last, no in-between. and the K.I.W. team definitely plans to be first in every show! 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well start working on some Leafers your self. he's doing it for the fans that Dont care what the packs looks like like me i been a big ass fan of his Leafers since the first packs.

Then the user simply scales the part to fit better. Just because it was released doesn't mean it's going to work in every situation, you might have to modify it to fit better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
