you were right grey machine, the roof rack did make her a little top heavy
at the scale comp the other week. over all I was happy w/ how she performed.
toyed with the idea of taking the roof rack off to help w/ the performance,
just couldn't bring myself to do it though.

had a little time yesterday to take her out and stretch her
legs a little.

thanks gear.head
the only thing I used from the cr01 was the body.
the axles are tlt's

decided to go with the volt up, gear down theory.
so here's what I came up with........................
an evx-2 w/ 12, 14.4, & 16.8v battery set ups

It's been reborn as a 1.5 rig with axial electronics, rc4wd steelies wrapped in pit bulls and some metal bumpers
