Did a little fine tuning with upper link positions and then rebuilt the BTA with Vanquish Knuckles So here are some Action shots |

So I guess the battery is mounted on the upper links? Seems like you could get alot more steering from those Super 300's. It looks nice, but why have a plate on top of the chassis? All in all, a decent build. I'm sure you'll improve it further.

| The links are a hair over stock legth cause the way they are mounted and the uppers are 83% the length of the uppers. All link angles are super critical when running a shafty vereses an MOA. It took about 2 months to get the rig dialed but now all I have to do is drive it. I also changed the front upper 4 link plate a little. I will post pics soon. The shock oil in the front is 35 and the oil in rear is 45. running team assosiated silver springs in the front and full length axial super softs in the rear with a upper team assosiated green spring cut down as a preload. So the rear has a dual rate spring setup. The rig is extermly forgiving like a MOA so you can race acroos the rocks to make up time when comping but still can crawl anything long as it gets traction. |

That VP stuff is classy! Very nice. What's the code# of your hubs? I also like the roof of the body, that looks like a cool tatoo! |

Looks great! Could you please post better pics of your link holes mounting on chassis, so we can see what holes you used. And would you post the eye to eye length of the links. That will help a lot for others who are building the VP incision too. I too own a shafty incision and am very pleased with it. VP is always top quality, and they have excellent customer service too! |
