|  The GF's new rig! So I wanted to get my GF involved with some of my hobbies so we could spend more time with each other. Since I have a rig that I plan to comp with I decided to build her something to come along and play with. Here is the run down on the rig: DNA SSS Chassis Axial Locked Trans w/ slipper VP Hurts Dig Axial Axles: Front has HR aluminum knuckles, C's and Axial universals. Rear has Axial aluminum lock outs and steel straight axle shafts. Both axles have "The Solution" aluminum lockers and HD R&P. Mayhem White Lightning Spider wheels w/ Losi Claws. HH Cobalt 500 motor Tekin FXR Hitec 7955 for steering and 645 for dig CC BEC Nomadio React Tx/Rx TP 1350mah 3s lipo JConcepts Stage Killa done by Brians Bodies.       Still got a few things to button up like electrical and steering. But its almost done. I also have a set of HPI Rock Grabbers I might throw on there to get a little more ground clearance. But for now going to try it like it sits. Hope she like it  Last edited by HiloDB1; 07-10-2009 at 01:49 PM. |

| Hopefully we will be out this weekend testing and tuning. Since this is her first crawler/rc she wont have to relearn how to drive with this chassis. Should be interesting too see how it works out Last edited by HiloDB1; 07-10-2009 at 02:22 PM. |

| Thanks for the positive feedback. She likes how it looks but she picked the colors of the parts  . Im not too keen on the purple with green color scheme  . Well who really cares as long as it crawls good |

| damn you all with yer DNA SSS Chassis.... That chassis is slowly and surely getting bumped up to the top of my list of things to buy... I say roll with them colors, it doesnt look that bad...it'll be original for sure, but that Purple with Black would look killer IMO. oh btw, your girl rules....my wife doesnt want anything to do with my "dirty toy cars":-( |
