Default Little BlackBug vs. Little D
So here is my build thread for the challenge buildoff between Tim and myself.
He is correct in saying I am slow. I started this a long time ago.
Here are a couple pics of what I have done.

So I have a theme I'm going for and a whole lot of parts. Still not 100% sure which tires I will use. I really like the looks of the new Prolines.
I have a few parts to make and get cage work started.

I don't know JJ..... Did you see the influx of parts that WPig just received. I love this 1 on 1 personal build off! Good stuff.

pretty sure the flames will go away in favor of red and white pinstripes.

Here is my transfer case.



And my power choices. still not sure. Really leaning towards the Revolver. I like the compact size.



Might go with these axle housings.

It wouldn't be right if I didn't make something for a Warpig build!

Got my wheels back from powder coat and got the new Proline KR2's mounted with Crawler Innovation foams.

I really am working on it, I swear.
Made the motor mount/spur carrier and the slipper eliminator.
