Default Best 2.2 Scale Builds

So, I have been thinking about all the incredible builds that I have seen over the years and was wanting to do a poll. Give those the "props" they deserve for their creativity, skills and PATIENCE. So, without further ado....nominate your favorite scale builds. Please post link to the thread.

I will accept nominations for about a week and then will turn that into a poll to see how they all do.

(Doing this in micro, 1.9 and 2.2 categories)

Patience? Ha ha what's that? I'll give props to j-rad racing for his incredable and original chassis designs and also northkona for his amazing scale builds.

I would have to put a scale and aussie vote in for northkona for his sick u4 builds as well!

But would have to definitely have to give Szczerba a mention for the work he has done on his recent XTV class 3 build. Absolutely epic little single seater and a style we don't see very often around here
Szczerba's 2.2 XTV

Sam63 gets my nomination. His TTC truck from this last SW scale championship was epic and so cool that it was based off his 1:1 rig from years ago.

Big Red TTC, my 1:1 replica...sort of

He should also get credit for his wicked Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 builds as those were well executed and innovative. Plus they gave him the clean sweep of ALL classes at the SWSC including the TTC.

Thanks for the Props! .

I gained a lot of inspiration from these two builds----

War Pig's all new '34D

KOH 68 Blazer Buggy

There are really a ton out there, too many great ones to compare. It is a cool idea to talk about some of the builds that have stood out for different people.

WOW ! thanks for the props guys , I didnt think my rigs were that special !

My votes (are we allowed 2 ?) go to mcrawlinslow's Avenger, after seeing and drooling over the 1:1 at KOH he got the look spot on.
the "AVENGER" 2.2 rock bouncer
The other rig that has to be mentioned from recent times is Metal Mashers Amego. The tubework and panels are second to none, all the bits that I usually paint and hide are spotless on this rig , something I'd love to achieve on a future build.
Class 3 Amego
