| Everett's Sporty
This is the start to my 2.2s build... I've been planning to build one for a while but haven't gotten around to it until now. I was lucky enough to pick up a roller so I only need a few things and it will be running... We'll start with the axles... The specs of the Front axle is: ~Gerry's CF Axles ~VP Wraith Knuckles ~CW Crawlers CF Steering arms ~Axial Uni's ~Axial OD Gears ~Gripfab Spool Weight with Hitec 7950 Servo: 9 oz Some pics... |

Well I've had this thing sitting for long enough so I decided it's time to get it running... Got the wheels and tires wrapped up for it... Specs are: ~Ultra Narrowed VooDoo's (with a twist) ~C.I. DD narrowed foams CC inners soft outers front medium rear ~Krazed Builds 3 Piece Snowflake CF wheels ~Alluminum hardware all around So I had this idea I've been wanting to test out with the VooDoo's so I decided to try it on this set. I took 1 pair of Golds and 1 pair of Silvers and when I cut them to narrow them I glued one half of a silver to one half of a Gold tire.. I'm curious to see how it'll work... I'm going to start with running them win trophies silvers on the outside of the tire and see how I like it... |

Got my steering worked out for now... So it's turning nice and smooth... Got a straight Ti Draglink from DLux that I bent up so it is working good now. |

Got this awesome piece a couple weeks ago... Skid built in with the tranny case so it's all enclosed and no screw needed in the bottom of the skid... This was before And after I love the look of no screws on the bottom of the skid |

Got it running today... Took it for a quick test run... Definitely needs some knuckles weights... The front pinion gear needs to be shimmed and the rear shocks are going to be completely rebuilt... Other then that it's running awesome and with some tuning and more driving it's going to run killer And the weight without knuckle weights right now is 2 lbs 14.4 oz |
