Nice, what cell lipo are you going to run when you get that? I'd try 6s, just for shits and gigs.

I am running 3s atm which is plentiful but would like to try a 4s. That'll be it though.

Our club has decided to run some G6 comps this year. So I had to invest in some 1.9ers. They aren't that bad but the 2.2's look so much better on this rig.

I really do like those wheels! The hubs aren't bad either. Would it be too much to get a straight ahead and side shot?

My brother is starting a project with the Summit Tranny and Axial Axles and he needs some drive shafts. Do you have a link to the MIP shafts that you used? I just want to make sure that the output shafts work for both the tranny and the axles. Nice rig!

MIP Part#'s

#09140 MIP Axle, Drive Hub, C-Drive 6mm Bore. This adapts to your summit tranny.

#09136 MIP C-Drive Spline kit. For dig. - I used the short shaft up front.

I am using a "Jason's Summit" mount and my wheel base is sitting right at 12.5". If you go to much longer you might want the kit with the both long shafts; not for dig. Hope this helps.

I got a chance to field test the MT Baja Claws. They are by far my favorite 1.9 tire now. The HH BRXL work flawlessly also. And all the wterproofing is working great. Here is a little video of some of the action. Enjoy!

Had to show the video to my neighbor who is building a 1:1 sammie. He loved it and will probably steal the basic look. Great work and video.

Cool, glad you guys enjoyed it. This is my buddy IttyBitty's (The Orange sammie in the video) Zuk. I have a stock sammie that needs some TLC haha.

Yep. I kinda like it too.

The 1.9 setup has grown on me. I was dead set on leaving the 2.2 rok lox on there and only using the 1.9's for the G6 comps. But after watching the latest video over and over and over, the MT Claws have really grown on me. They do work well with this truck. I really like the height and width of them.

Painted up a new body this past week; my old one had had it. I figured red would add at least a 10th of a second in the quarter mile.

I replaced the proline shocks with some RC4WD Ultimate scale shocks. I really like the looks of them but they could use a stiffer spring for my pig of a sammy.

Nice

I found that running some internal fuel line limiters around 15mm in these shocks helped my 8 pound Yota from squatting out.

What are you running for oil/lube if any?
