Chris,

Pulled off a rear shock...... It weighs 13.3 grams rtr on two different scales..... What does yours weigh? You have me curious now.... Lol

[chris.martell]

Mine weight in at 9.6 grams to 9.9 grams. Variance is due to being turned down with a dremel and a drill

[chris.martell]

[ClassiCutCustoms]

Good to know..... Thanks. I figured mine would be heavier with the volume of oil in those bodies. Still like the smooth and reliable BB

[chris.martell]

I just ordered some myself to know what I'm missing. To be honest I wasn't trying to shave weight I was just looking for a smooth body

[ClassiCutCustoms]

Hummmmmm.....what were we talking about again? Lol

[chris.martell]

Um mm mm big bores and scx shock......

[Dravpnir]

I managed to get my big bores down to 10 g each with oil

[ClassiCutCustoms]

Impressed....... You are amazing!

If you mean my big bores, I have not only turned them down, but also made some piston rods out of titanium instead of the steel ones. Every 0.1 g counts

[slowride1]

nice
I found that I like a 4 pound truck for the most part an it didn't break the bank to get it there. I have had it at 3.9 an didn't really care for it there .that was the pro truck that is . the ringer an the boxer I tested was both rite there a 4 pounds as well an worked really well. I kinds loos like the el nino is going to be around 4.1 4.2 pounds rtr

Fresh off the mill...... A new twist on my three spoke design that I drew up yesterday.

Paint....... The carbon is milled part way and then painted. I am using the same process on the Mutt chassis that is coming out. I wanted to brighten up all the black that rigs have nowadays.

[ZZR 1100 Racer]

Thx for fast answer. I like the idea of coloured milled carbon

[redsawacs]

To me it looks like you're using a stubby motor setup...I could be wrong. If I use this chassis with a stock AX Transmission, do I need to run a stubby motor or will a standard can 540 rebuild-able (team brood Intensity for example) fit in the chassis pocket?

I'm almost there! I have it narrowed down to this an one other chassis - LOL The other one simply because my eye says "it looks cool"....sigh...I over analyze EVERYTHING!

He is running a Vapor motor which is standard 540 motor length so it's not a stubby... It will fit

[ClassiCutCustoms]

Nope...... I am running a Brood Vapor..... Standard size as far as I know. Was running a old D3 can before and a standard tranny and it fit fine as well.
