What I want to do is have a comp crawler but a scale GMC serira 1500. The chassis will be a X-Trail with the Novak goat system, and the axial AX-10 kit so basically I want to know is are scale rigs able to be comp rig thanks.

Some consider mine a scaler but I built is purposefully as a comp truck. It just happens to be more realistic than others. Comp tuber I'm still ironing things out but I got 5th in my last comp with a 15. I scored only 2 penalty points in the last 2 courses combined so yah, I feel it's pretty competitive. |

i did the same thing about a month ago and ended up switching mine back to the comp rig. dont get me wrong i love scalers and i will finish rebuilding mine when money starts coming in but i would say to leave your comp rig alone and just build a seperate scaler. i think you will enjoy the both of them more than just one. i have the x trail chassie and i love it for being a scaler but i dont think its a comp worthy chassie, its too tall even with full droop. i kept rolling mine at the comp i went to with it, lots of off camber climbs. It can be made into a comp worthy rig but you have to spend a lot more time to find a setup that works for you. Last edited by jpcherokeekid; 09-16-2008 at 09:21 AM. |
