I'd do a Kult of Speed if those are mostly Sluggas. Get like, 2 or 3 more Trukks for a start, then think on a Battlewagon to put the Nobs and the Warboss there. You need at least 3 Meganobs for a unit so if you want to use them, you'd have to buy one meganob, or you could dismantle them for bitz. Lootas for the most part have no place in Kult of Speed, but you could remove and save the deffguns and use the torsos for other weapons.
You also kind of need more Nobs if you want to use a Nob squad, because you need one Nob in every Boyz squad. I think another AoBR would be a better buy rather than the nob set.

So what are the other 26 boys? shootas? Either way get more boys 45 isnt enough unless you plan on trimming the list down a lot. Also, it does look like its geared more towards KoS. You might want to go with Nob bikers instead of biker boyz, it really depends on what kind of army you want.

Nouuuuuu, no flash gitz, no matter fluff, they're bad... baddd, and not in a "good" sense. Blows, big baby chunks.
Trukks, Battlewagons, whatever, paint them yellow, add bling, there's your fluff, but no gitz!

If you want a Bad Moons feel, you could model a bunch of nobs with crazy combi-weps, and then put them in a battlewagon with 'Lotza Gubbinz'. It's just as fluffy as Flash Gits, but much less expensive, and better in game, especially if they get FnP and a Klaw or 2.

yes they do...
Painboyz can be put in Nob squads. If you take a Warboss, that nob squad can then become a troops choice.

Flash Gitz in a Battlewagon or with a Weirdboy is a nasty surprise to the unexpecting player, especially with a Painboy. Don't believe the hype. I have seen Flash Gitz unload into MEQ, TEQ and GK. When the smoke rises, guess who is left? If you use a Weirdboy (Which is very Bad Moon) upgrade him to Warphead, and try for 'Ere we Go. The last thing your opponent wants to see is these guys showing up in their deployment zone. Don't forget, these guys are nobz. They can take and give a good beating in close combat. Their gunz are assault. With upgrades, they can melt down whatever they want. Convert or proxy them and try them in a few games before you make any opinions based on what you see on paper.
Meganobz, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways! 5 in a trukk with a Warboss, at least 1 of each Kombiskorcha and Kombishoota. This unit will bust heads, and get there fast. They swing last, so be careful of things like Monstrous Creatures and Multiple Power Weapon units (Eldar Banshees). It's well worth the sacrifice if you are going to send them after a monstrous critter that has Synapse, or a Demon with Lash. Remember that Plasma is your enemy! Use your trukk movement to get across the board as fast as possible first turn, and keep it hidden if you don't go first. Try to stick to cover if possible.
Convert your sluggaz into Kommandoz to max out the unit, you already spent the money on Snikrot you may as well. Make sure you give 2 of them burnaz.
For Fast Attack, play the Deffkoptaz as single units for now until you get more bikers. I wouldn't play with less than 6. Warbikes are great units, but they need to come in numbers. They are too fragile when you take morale into consideration. I also have a special place in my heart for Buggies, and they can be great for screening vulnerable spots on Battlewagons or Trukks.
Shootaboyz are perfect, I prefer them  They are great for holding objectives, which is 66.6% of the game now.

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness. ADB |

ok, i like the sound of that idea, but you sound very "on your own" in your opinions as everyone else wants me to have lots of choppy bits to charge into battle.
thanks

Flash Gitz can work in large games where you can allow yourself to spend points on weird stuff for the kicks. 1850+
