Some updates for tonight. New wheels and tires. They are Create-a-Crawler 2.0 wheels with Flashpoints with an added section to bring them to 114mm. They look 100x more scale in my opinion. Big Bear found us some scale Sand Ladders. |

Yeah, the CAC-rims suit it very well together with the nice Flash Points What I forgot to ask and really like to know (as there are near to 0 Crawlers in our "old world" across the pond ) - how do you build those superb cages??? Brazing, okay, but is the design "copied" from a real one or is it experience from former rollovers or is it developing step by step on the workbench??? |

A lot of my building just comes to me as I build. I tend to just stare at it for a while then it comes to me then I keep going. With the first couple cages you build don't expect them to turn out well at all. | |

Looks like it crawls pretty level. How are the FlashPoints working for you?
