Default Gatekeepers new Honcho ..thanks TCS

I got my new honcho in last friday .I could not take the time to do pics of the build I had to get the thing built and see what it would do...
I would like to thank Kevin at TCS for hooking me up with this bad boy..

Everything went very smooth with the build,it took me 7 hours to put it together and started driving the scale out of it.

Here are a few pics of it new and I built some inner fender wells to keep mud and dirt out of the cab.

The honcho looks good. Axial hit a homerun with this kit.

Honcho looks good. I'm wondering what you think of the shocks. I've read some say to stiff and others say there perfect.. Whats your thoughts?

I dont know what that meens but I say ramp
I like them but the rear needs to be just a little softer for going down hills or I could just add weight to the wheels.Other than that it is perfect and the shocks have not leaked a drop

Austin the Honcho looks like the ultimate scale comp machine right out of the box. This has got to be another home run for Axial.
