Default boosted's 2010 sss sportsman rig

heres a rundown of parts
dns sss chassis
dna super narrow psychos.....soon
rover ex's
epic 45t
mamba max
jr 9100t servo

axial bta (with dna mount and fourlinked!!!)
axial rear lockouts and straight axles
gh hubs
axial trans..of course
dx3e tx/rx
mip cvds





cant decid what body to run they bot slam down pretty low its just down to how much i'll have to trim the grappler to fit i have tons of steering and as soon as wheels arrieve ill have pics of it in action

Red face That's pretty kool' as for not running any shock's on it'

That something totally different to me brotha'...?!! For I have never seen a chassis of that type in person before and I'm wondering just how it feel's to drive one,...ya know's. That's a Kool-rig' by the way too bro'.

The pic from underneath looks like the chassis side plates are bolted to the axles. Doesnt this prevent any flex as the side plates are solid?

Oh true,

It flexes, not as much as a shocked rig, but setup right, it can be very capable.

Here's a vid of mine from last year

Mine weighed between 5.5-6lbs depending on how many slugs I put in the wheels, it was on the lighter side in the vid.
