$500 for a T-120 is a heck of a deal! Be aware that it might be because it only goes half speed. Ya know... cause its half yellow. :lol:

it seems to me that you're set to go get some slime on it.

My only suggestion would be to keep an eye on other people's rigs because you may find something you like to add to yours.

Nice deal! Don't buy anything until you use it. Many of the items you see people using may be useless for you.

The rocket launchers are pretty cool, I also like his "command center" on his front console. It's so organized it's sicckkk. Wonder how he made it? :D
