well sorry it took so long to get more pics up here! i've been busy working 6 to 7 day weeks!! not alot of time for picture taking! but i have been driving the crap out of my car! i almost got it working as good as my old car! i actually made a few changes that helped alot! but anyways on to the pics. take a look at how i mounted the back axle and how much clearance i have!         oh and i finally found some 2mm button heads for my axial wheels! what a huge difference!  |

VERY creative build ! I have a great deal of respect for the torsion setup after comping with Grover before he went "Berg". I like your steering setup.

here's some pics from the Axial Nevada State Championship in Lovelock Nevada! very cold and windy comp but some of the best traction i have ever seen! i took 4th overall with the car. i just wasn't used to all the traction. i think my rear foams were a tad to soft for that rock! and not enough weight! on to the pics.....               |

Nice rig. Who knows who is selling BMV ( torsion ) chassis?. I want to build one for the wife and like the torsion due to less moving parts. Plus I am impressed with the performance. Thanks.

sorry guys i guess its been awhile sense i checked this thread... special agent is right. i made my chassis, and the BMV2 is discontinued... i know it sucks but i have been talking to the guy that made them and he said he was working on an axial based chassis.. my back plate was coppied of his newest chassis he is working on... |

Sweet rig scuzzy! Did you guys ever figure out a way to effectively limit the flex? I hate the slingshot effect. I was toying with the idea of a simple bump stop mounted to the center plate... I just wasted about an hour searching for those sweet Axial high steer knuckles. Then I realized they are proabably Vanquish units  |
