| Brad, I know what you are trying to do, and it isn't going to work. No matter how many times you ask I am not giving you body off shots of DirkZilla. Just so everyone knows, I used DirkZilla to help Bastard setup the finals course. DirkZilla finished the course with a score of 17. Not one 2.2 or supercrawler finished the finals course. DirkZilla owns all. |

| Wow, I'm surprised the cut up side didn't move too much. Simply amazing! |

 Nickel, I did add the brace to the top of the frame. I was getting a little flex, but it was barely noticable. I tumbled down a huge rock wall yesterday with it. I only broke outer axles. Last edited by BENDER; 09-13-2006 at 11:41 AM. | |

| Jason, maybe you should post Dirkzilla on Clodtalk to show them how a real crawler should work |

Those connectors were always the first thing to get lopped off, then hard wired or Deans. I guess they worked pretty good for you! | |

| Looks cool. Kind of like the Terminator when he was blown apart. |

How'd that Quark treat you? I have both the Mamba and the Quark and I must say that the Quark throttle response is so much better (and quieter), it just about makes up for the slight reverse delay but I just don't know if I'd use it in a comp. It's easier to avoid a rollover with the zero delay on the Mamba. | |

| CSR's #2 Super Class rig... The rig I brought to the National's is the same rig I've ran all year in the SERCRC points series. This rig started with a Stick chassis from The Crawler Store, a pair of locked Clodbuster axles, ThunderTech ajustable motor mounts, a pair a Integy 55 turn motors, 9T front/8T rear pinions. The front and rear Hitec HS5645MG servos get their juice from a Novak Super Rooster speed control, connected to three Team Orion 3000mah NiMH cells on each front knuckle with Deans Ultra plugs. The radio is a modified Traxxas TQ3. Tires are Proline 40-series Moabs on Proline Outback wheels w/Twisted Toys rockrings.      |

| I'm kinda curious how many people were running brushless. I know Bender was running the Revolver in his 2.2 and I saw 'em in Kevin's Stick. From what I gather, quite a few people were running 'em just judging by the number of Holmes Hobbies stickers I've seen in the photos... |

My ride...   The moabs didn't last very long. Ran them the first course then swapped to Mashers. Best move I made all day. All the rigs at the Nats were killer. Unimogger- your hand bros chassis is sweet. Looks well thought out. | |

| First place in each class was powered by a Holmes Hobbies powerplant;) Needless to say I ordered up a pair this morning. |
