First dirt run! became apparent the velcro to mount the body didn't cut it, so I made a direct screw in connection now. The shocks need a fix, lighter oil or stiffer springs, even with 8 shock it still is pretty slow dampening.

The two speed trans works very well and gives lots of power and decent slow speeds. I think I will look for some quads or dirt bikes, the sleds are a little out of place in the sunnyrific sunny day we had.

Ever thought about an undertray for the body? would really tie it together, keep the inside clean too.

I bought a proline tray for the comanche and by the time I was done trying to make it fit, It didn't fit remotely

I do have thoughts on making a tray out of some alum sheets I have acquired. Been busy putting together a boyer chassis yota truggy so the dually hasn't been getting any love.

I live in Sherwood Park, Alberta and all I see are these huge rig rockets... This looks great, I really like the ski-doos

Loaded up the sleds and headed out to break some trail. This is a beast and is a stump to pull out once stuck haha.

Jmike I can't beleive you did sled deck. I was contemplating doing the same as a way to cover the not so scale bed on the clod body I just received. I thought maybe I was going to have an original. Oh well I guess theres room for 2 scale sled decks in GP. Kinda fitting as every second 1:1 truck you see has a sled deck in it anyway. Pm coming to you.
