Jimbiss nice ride I just got a black one. Do you ever go out to the lava monds just SW of Rexburg there is some nice crawling out there, me and some friends go out there all the time.

I have been out just west of rexburg on 33 a few times, but haven't explored much.

So i added 1 oz to each wheel, just putting the weights on the inside edge of the wheels. Also I added spacers inside the shocks to shorten them up a bit. Both helped quite a bit. I'm sure when i get the electronics off the radio plate it will help even more.

I added in a Novak 2 cell cutoff.
Here are some pics from yesterday outside the hobby shop.

man that is the perfect playground for crawlers.. id prob roll off the top and take out a kid or something. i grew up in idaho and havent been back to play on the lava rocks. how well do the crawlers go on it? also how are you liking the new chasis? currently lookin for a new mini chasis.
