So you going to bring this down for the comp next month at Fall Creek?

[joshsmith512]

Yes sir, with some ncd wheels at that point. Just got done shaving 8 grams off a already really shaved khaos rover

[EverettY]

Awesome I'm planning on being there... Just a matter of if I'll be there with some working rigs Can't wait to check this out

[joshsmith512]

Was able to shave 2.1oz off the khoas tires, for a rtr of 4lb 5 oz. First big comp and only second time driving it. Rig was uber stable with killer breakover. Ran great and got first. Hope to have some pics of the comp later.

We may not be at fall creek. The water levels are iffy. It will end up being a last minute choice for sure



Just consider yourself lucky Josh, that my servo crapped out on my sporty. Otherwise, You would have gotten a bit of a whoopin by a CreationFab Sportsman Kush!

Hey mate must have had my head in the sand, missed your sudu build. Looking good. Congrads on the win. These are a great rig.

I dont know if you have changed over but i run wild boars with a insert in the male halfs of the drive shafts front and rear. I also use a micro sidewinder on my sudu.

Im runnibg a HH TM Pro 45t. I did run a 35t but the esc did get wamer than i was confortable with. My rtr is between 3.5lb and 3.9lb from memory depending on my configeration so what you want is acheivable.

Ill subscribe and keep watching. You are right about Tomi and Douwe, both top notch guys. Keep up the good work.

Congrads to on the Team Driver Status.

Thanks ben. I switched to the wild boar with a center rod before this comp, it seemed to hold up great even with 13t crawlmaster power

I had a mamba micro in it but it was malfunctioning so in went a trusty old fxr. I would be alot closer to my weight goal if i would give up my khaos tires for boss claws.

Well if you do end up coming down to Fall Creek sounds like I'll have some fun watching the Sporty's... I'll bring out my dad's nice video camera and shoot some vids of them... And of course the Pro's

[joshsmith512]

got a package from finland ncd cf beadlocks oh yeah. i personally go with the beadlocks because i like to be able to easily take apart the wheel for water removal( thanks to the lovely pacific northwest). also lost some grams


compared to





14 grams per wheel hell yeah, gonna be around 4lb2-3oz when all done. gettin ever closer to the 3lb range. also a little weight on shocks, switching to scx's.




4 grams per shock, not bad another half oz gone. hope to go out this weekend for more driving time.

Im envious. So makes my ax10 look sad. Im going to have to upgrade to cf sooner or later. That is a kick butt rig!

[Oz Bruiser]

Run 3 hub screws only per wheel. I have been doing sinse i been runing NCD wheels and is fine.

Will do

[EverettY]

Beautiful! those wheels looks great! And it's nice to have the weave of the wheels and chassis match

[douwe]

That's a good looking rig josh. I just designed some wheels for tomi. Glue wheels that only weigh 12gr with steel hardware.
I really like the look of the red hardware on the black carbon...
