I think it's going to take more than just tapping the skid. It's an ambitious project which is why I'm pretty excited to see what he comes up with. I have a few white Vipers left...maybe I might try one of these myself.

[2006Shelby]

Yeah i might have to go see him this weekend and check it out for sure.

[team423]

thanks she is looking good should have it ready 2maro or so..i cant wait to test it out..just didnt want u shafty guy's to get discouragedno names you know who u r

[2006Shelby]

Hell that will never happen man i always have a blast just wanted to chunk my rig when my servo was acting up as far as the course it wouldnt have been bad if my crap wasnt acting up that day hell that one course i did fine just hard ass angles for a shaft with no dig or rear steer but you know i can drive the hell out of it lol.

[team423]

i know thats right..but seriously i just figured that at other comps they run 1.9,2.2 and 2.2 sportsman so thats 2 chances for me to get into the money you still getn a moa soon?

[2006Shelby]

About mid Feb ill be ordering it and a new UGC chassis and all the electronics and motors also gonna get myself a scaler too plus finish up both my kids shaftys so its gonna be a busy spring lol.

[team423]

me to..i still got a little work to do to my xr and alot of work to do to my wife's xr the shafty is ready and iam looking for a scaler toso lets do it son

[2006Shelby]

Once the funds are there its gonna get nasty at my house hell i just built another shafty lastnight for a buddy it turned out pretty sweet he wanted a buggy body and it seems to work out pretty good its just a tad heavy due to that buggy chassis but he said he wanted a crawler that looked like a real crawler so he got one i would have him start a thread but where he uses the same ip as me he cant post or anything so i might toss some pics up and make a thread for him lol.

[team423]

here she is now
