I have been trying to convince him to do that exact thing.... I dont think he even listens to my nonscense anymore Being cut on the water jet, the edges are already fogged due to the abrasive in the stream. Just think how BA it would look on a night run Ben, you could add a disco ball with color changing led dome light directed at said ball for a scale point and artistic flare |

Made a rear 4 link truss and temporary upper links! Stole the shocks off another rig cause my new ones didn't come in the mail today. Most frustrating part of this build is trying to find the clear parts I just made! I set em down and they are gone! I ordered a 3d lexan motor (vintage BDS) and I cant find it! Just a little more fender trimming and a boat side and she'll be good! Hopefully tomorrow night I can start working on the drivetrain. gotta pull the motor mount out and mill it for the bearings, drill the spreaders of the case to be bolted to the chassis, then start the od/ud xr mod. |

Didn't bore out some clear shock bodies?! Jk. I'd hate to ever get this rig dirty. Sick. Just sick man.

Still haven't found the lexan motor, but I got the real motor mounted. Also the servo, esc and reciever. Mip shafts installed and started the interior. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get time to finish the interior and take some pictures! Hoping to have it together so I can test drive it this weekend! 16 more nights til nationals, hopefully at least 1/2 of those are build nights!

| Re: Nothing to see here! Sorry I never got back to this. It was finished and took 3rd place in Colorado. Also took unique concept at the concourse. Then it got shelved because sorrca dreamed it unrealistic and I wasn't allowed to run it anymore.
