So I got some pics. Have to post them now in case I kill my computer swapping the hard drive.

This first one in a comparison with the Slash TT, also an updated pic of it, hasn't gone much of anywhere....


This is the chassis. It's a TC3 cut and shortened a couple inches and liberal clearancing of the chassis to allow more droop travel of the suspension. Still have one front aarm to put on and shocks to mount. Could be running in a couple days, but I doubt it will be.

Went bashing today at a park with a buddy. Tore up the revo today for 2 tanks, at which point my spur was Goooone, but it hauled ass, even with the motor still super tight, can't wait to fix it and go tear up some more. Just doing WOT runs

still no screws for the buggy, hopefully this week. can't wait to run that

so are we going sunday?

Jason did you use the spur gear yet?

I will bring 4 rigs to the track so if one dies, I will have a back up and if the back up dies I will have another back up.  If the back up to the back up dies, I will have a back up.  If they all die, I am selling everything.

I have not had a chance to change the spur gear yet, I actually haven't been home. It's a 10 minute job though so maybe I'll get it this week sometime.

sure sunday works.

i want to buy a steel spur for my revo, I am tired of changing them out. This time, I will get there early because I want to get some solid run and wrench time in, get everything tuned right and reliable.

I may be down for this Sunday. Christine will be out of town and I forsee a lot of boredom. Which track you going to?

I've been working on another project lately. My Losi Mini Rockcrawler was looking a bit lame so I picked up a torch, brass rod and some silver solder and learned how to build a tube chassis. It is almost done, just need to mount body panels and paint. I'll try to grab a pic sometime this week.
