RE: To all of the new shafty class builds

[helhedded]

I love it. From all around the world you guys are creating some really sick builds.

Keep up the great work guys, lets keep this super-fun class going strong

[douwe]

Thanks...
I also think this is a nice class to drive ;)
Thats why i started the SuDu project together with Tomy...

I have a feeling this will be the big class. With no viable production 2.2 MOA crawlers, everyone is gonna have to go back to shafty.

I stopped caring about comp rigs when MOA became the norm. Might have consider building a shafty seeing as there is serious interest in it again

All you need is the XR10 axle housings, the rest is made by a supporting army of hopup making garage workshops

Alright this kinda of talk fires me up, we live in Tennessee and we have a group of guys and all we run is shafty class and we love it,we got to get our vendors back to making kickass products for us.

2.2 shafty ftw!

[papabash]

Most people on here know that 1.9 is my favorite class, but with it becoming less popular, my hope is that the 2.2 shafty rigs will continue to grow strong. I'm really excited about building my 2.2S because after-all, they're just grown up mini's, right?

[JimmyJam]

HOO-RAH!!!!!! Im building a "Ringer" shafty right now and Im excited like you guys to see this class get BIG!!! THe parts selection for this class just gets better and better!

Stop making me agree with you

We are also following this policy in Italy, after many years of only moa is time to change or add this new category, the main motivation is in any case to reduce costs with the prospect that more and more users come back to drive the crawler.

Hi,

Entirely of accort with helhedded
2.2 Shafty is one excelling class, very fun and very competitive. It really deserves to be developed.

[samaruki]

The only thing I would like to see body and bodiless running in the same class. I just don't understand what advantage one has over the other. Seems to be a personal thing more then anything else....maybe if I had a long history in this sport I would have a different mind set about the whole thing but I have only been comping since Moa's became the thing...I do favor the 1.9 class and am looking forward to getting a 2.2s going. I just don't like the whole fancy painted body thing and needing to remove the body to get the battery in and out and messing with those dang body clips anyway I guess I will shut up now

Where's your new build?

[slim_chance]

I pefer shafties over moa because I think it is a more fun class. Dont get me wrong I might build a moa super one day. As for the body vs bodiless I think it is more personal preference. I like a well done shell on a crawler. But not the over done paint jobs.

On the top of the pile of old builds.

All these builds. I better get to work in 2.2

[brazwewn]

I have to admit my new 2.2 shafty is becoming one of my fav trucks to drive. Our problem is we have a thriving scale class, 1.9, 2.2 with so many comps. Need to figure out when we can slip in the 2.2 shafty class into the mix. Lots of stuff to figure out over the next few weeks.
