Default XRRA 1.9 Rock Racer/Scaler... BeckWorks Tuber.

This originally started off as a TLT crawler (at least that was what I intended it to be),Build thread here: Beckworks Tuber - XRRA inspired . But then I came across an AX-10 that'll be used for 2.2 comps....
I decided to make it my 1.9 Rock Racer/Scaler.
My newest additions are the body panels that were custom painted by FTR.

So, I have messed with this quite a bit since it was first started being put together. The front shocks have now had 3 different shocks/sizes, the rear shocks have had two. Both F & R shocks have been configured in three different ways. The front and rear, lower and upper, links have been lengthened or shortened at least twice. Two different link mounts have been used for the rear. Multiple electronics placement.
The only things 'original' is the frame, axles, and tranny.
I have a Warrior motor to be put in once that arrives... Then I think it's finally close to being finished... (I say that now)

No pics on the rocks yet, still a lot of snow...

The obligatory flex shot... (not all the flex, but close. It'll get up with enough air to clear it's own tire.)

at first looking at the pics i thought you sold it. then noticed that you changed your name. that is definatly the best look it has had so far. it looks perfect. the panels are still the best part. glad to see that you finally got it where you want it.

The front shock hoops are killer... I may need a Beckworks tuber if all these builds keep popping up.

Default specs for a rock racer?

What are the specs for rock racers, wheel base, width, tire size and what motor/tranny/ gears work well? Thanks.
