Feels goooodd! Pfft.. newbie.. yes, I like them straight-er-ish.. For the front, it keeps everything square.. for the rear, it keeps the shocks from rolling over, during full articulation. Also allows me to lay the shocks further forward, without aiding in TT or the front axle waiving.. Yeah... And.. yeah! It was the cheapest route.. lol.. Yeah, what this guy said!

Not many updates, but plenty of run time, for this truck! A local EPA member has been running this truck. 2 local comps and NEMS.. This weekend, Aiden actually ran it at NENC!!! By far, the best part of my weekend! He kept his cool, despite Zero run time and Dad coaching him... Also with the help of my man, Sic1to! I heard guys mention many things about Aiden's driving and the rig in action! I even noticed it handle some things better then my truck, in a area or 2! Overall, a Awesome time! Aiden even got his own trophy! Which led to a trophy of my own! Because some smart ass says.. "No matter what, atleast I know I'll beat one Winner this weekend!"... Baahahaha!!!! That same sucka came in, one spot below Aiden!!!!!!!!!!!!! Muuwaahahaha!!!! ![]() ![]() |

Some updates, on the truck.. or my thoughts on this truck.. Now that the season is all but over, I must tip my hat to the un-stuck! I built this truck and tuned it, for Aiden. It has been run by numerous people in numerous states, at numerous local comps and Big comps.. This has just been since earlier this year. I have tuned the truck to the point where, I think it's time to grow it up a little! It's still rocking VP C's and knuckles, with Dlux knuckle weights. Very little knuckle weight. Yet I hear comments and watch the rig in action, as it never seems to lift a tire or roll over backwards. I watch alot of trucks and I have been nothing but excited to hand this truck to someone to run.. Just so u can watch it work! It's gotten to the point, where I want one, for myself!!! I have a set of Dlux brass knuckles, ready to swap in. That I won at NEMS, this year. Thanks Erik, for being a kick ass sponsor, for NEMS!!! I have some Dlux wheels and possibly a set of loaded dice or Krazed Builds weight hangers, are in order. Both guys are awesome vendors! Side note.. I handed this truck to another club member, a couple weeks ago. I'm pretty sure he got me by a point on the first course and 2 points on the second course.. The heat was on!!! Course 3 was a tough one! And not getting through the finish gate, opened it up! Other then that, the un-stuck was Awesome to watch! Maybe it's time to move on from the cut-n-shut 1.9 chisels and move onto a new set of tires, to go with the new wheels and weights! More to come shortly.. Mainly some building.. |

Thanks gentlemen! Now I'm excited to get to comps again. Not for winning, but for the fellow crawlers and laugh's, through out the weekend! It worked out that BTF, Chicklet, M_energy, Constant Threat, and myself, were all there, since the last time any of us were there. That was 4 ECC's ago! Talk about a Blast! Funny and sad part.. We all got looked at funny, when we gave screen names, to judges! ![]() Or just used screen name's, in general conversation. Damn bookface! Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |
