Default BGR truggy build

Hey guys and gals,
Finally decided to post about my BGR truggy build. Got the chassis last year after waiting for it for little over 2 months.

I must say I was thoroughly impressed with their attention to detail and the build quality.

Got it shipped to Australia in November 2017 and did nothing with it until September 2018 due to work and family commitments.

Seeing couple of similar builds on YouTube recently sparked up some motivation and decided to get things started.

Collected a bunch of parts over the next 2-3 months. Decided to buy everything new rather than using my scx10.2 kit as a doner

My favourite part. Wheels And tyres. Decided to go with Gearhead ENK 1.9’s and Pit bull rock beast XL tyres. I’ve used Pit Bulls in the past and been very happy with them

Looks great so far and I love your wheel choice.
It sucks to wait for parts when living in Australia but it looks like you've stocked up pretty well
