Nice !
I used to rock the titan 12t before going brushless, fun motor.
I also run the tbone bumpers on one of my amps.
But I do recommend you look into getting the metal tranny gears... not an expensive upgrade but worth it. I shredded mine while still on my stock motor.
 
Nice Amp!! I would suggest that the box is a nice stand for a few pics but the more important perspective is to see how it sits on your suspension. Less on the box and more on a light colored floor would be nice to see and one or two with the body off and on the floor would be fun :)

I'll get some shots this coming weekend.

Try putting a brushless motor in your AMP with a 3 cell 5300mAh 50C Batery. This is what I did to mine and man she moves. She has been clocked at 65 mph and will do a wheelie for one block. I love that truck, it was my first RC that I bought. I put an auxiliary battery for high density LED lights so I wouldn't have to use the main battery. I also put plastic draw handles on the top of truck body, this keeps the the body from getting all scratched up if and when it flip over. Two on the top and two on the bed, .99 cents apiece. I love this truck, it takes a beating and keeps on going. I am going to put a steel spur gear and steel driveshafts on it in the next few weeks. I did that to my ECX Torment as I was for ever breaking driveshafts only because I'm running a 7000 mAh 60C 3 cell battery. That truck has been clock at 80 mph.
Its a lot of fun too upgrade. I have 7 1/10 RC cars/trucks; 2 ECX, 3 Traxxas and 2 Axial, all brushless.
