|  Madtinners ecsc c1 build
And here we go. I've decided to build a g2 to compete at rc4wd ecsc in Aug. I'm gonna skip the assembly of the chassis. Cause for now it's bone stock. There will be a couple chassis upgrades. But for now I'm going to focus on the body. I'm going to start by removing the top. Here's a couple pics as it sits.   sorry for crap cell pics. sent from tinners foster care for rc's. |

So I'm having a thought about doing more of a fastback cage design. Starting behind the seats. I'm thinking of dropping the cage height in half. Either way it will be cloth covered. If I leave it how it is now the side curtains will roll up. What do you guys think? sent from tinners foster care for rc's. |

I think the way it is now and with roll up soft sides it would remind me of a safari style truck...as fast back it would be a more sporty/hybrid. I'd kinda like to see a fastback.

Question of the day. Do I setup a spare in the stock location?  or. Do I setup a dual spare. And cut the rear out to set them down more.  the hood mounted spare is out of the question. sent from tinners foster care for rc's. |
