Color will be removed in less that 24 hours with a Dremel and/or scissors.

Just ran a pack through it. Is awesome. Super predictable. Just need to tweak the
Et-3S for some low end with the HH 13.5 and I may drop the spur down to a 8-9. Geared 10/54 and has decent low
End with tons of mid range.

Thanks for knocking out the starter chassis for me to get started.

Tires siped, cut and tested. Gold compound is really steady and minimal hop, end with lugs cut out. The front CI Double Deuces are perfect. CI Deuces Wild out back.

Rig is 13.75" wb, 8" tall, 11" wide and 7lbs 15oz RTR.

For like half a pack.

Cutting and siping the lugs really softened up the tars and they have a ton of grip now.
I was thinking the Deuces Wilds out back were going to be too firm but once the tars were cut, they feel alot better for rok crwlering.

My dog likes to bite the tires when I am running it across the yard and took a small bite out of one sidewall. CA fixed it though.

I bet my neighbors love me screaming at my dog to stop. They live about 500yds away but I bet they can hear. I can only wear her down with the quadcopter.

THanks. This will be a rock crawler this weekend as I have the Holmes Hobbies 13.5 geared wayyyy down. currently 8/56 but may roll with a 6/56, as the 8/56 still has alot of mid range punch for rock hopping.

Thanks, i am running myself into the ground. This weekend at ECSC should make up for it all. This rig will probably need a proper HH brushed beast in it before too long.

I handed my wife the seat, harness, glue and some craft foam. She did all the work Saturday morning while I was testing.

I press the penis to make the winch go free spool. Quite funny but that is where those BC Paint's stickers go on my rigs, right behind the front tars.

Awesome rig as usual. Where's the "Szczerba Built" sticker?
