I could use some advice.

Best advice I can offer…….. Find a builder with a style you prefer. Normally the active guys on the site offer some nice builds. Read over their build threads. Find a build you really really like. Dive in.

Bananaclip's advice is how I started out. I followed many build threads here and learned a ton from the RCC veterans. And YouTube is your friend. I've spent many hours watching and doing research and taking notes. It all comes in handy when I'm planning my next build.

@P-Cubed, you can look through my build threads here on RCC if you want to see how I go about planning and building my rigs. Drop a question in the thread if you have one.
 
The VS4 chassis is legit. It can easily be built to ride low. I personally like the low ride height builds myself. This little Toyota is being built using the VP frame and VFD pro trans.

I’m a scale guy but I like my builds to work to. I prefer the box frame over the flat rails for rigidity and better scale appearance. Sounds to me like your making some moves in the right direction.

That is a sweet build right there. I ordered the 410 chassis and vfd trans from another member. He included the links another set of shocks and a marlin hard body. I’m planning on throwing some 45 straights on. I’ll be looking for some composite driveshafts and an sw4. I’m going to put a nsdrc rs800 on it and hopefully have everything together soon. I have been going back through the build threads and I like most of them, with slight tweaks here and there. I’m also a member of cheater groups and am trying to pick up more from them also for the future of my build.

I hear you and thanks. I’ve watched so many build videos and product demos that I hit a point where hearing whoever it was talking, voice started to give me a headache. Hahaha, it sucks because they’re so informative, so I decided to switch gears and jump into forums and class groups. I think my faves so far have been the draggers and cheaters. Not so much the ones where there is hardly any body left but the rigs that are like an inch maybe inch and a half from the ground but just walk right up and over anything. I’ve put orders in for most of my build and will be hopefully putting it together soon. Now I need to get on the body mod side of things and figure out how I’m going to pinch and dovetail.

I built an lcg Sherpa chassis and then put a big hardbody on it and I’m honestly surprised by the amount of stability it has for being so big this thing stayed planted and went everywhere my buddies highly modded element ecto went and more
