Crazed SCX10 II

[Crazed]

So I had picked up some 2.2 OMF for my yeti, and am not liking how they fit...Thought I would try something.

Got some Rock Beast 1.9s




They look so cool put together.. then I put them on the truck..






Did nothing for me. I tried them on the wife's BFD..



Back to my normal tires..



Group Shot..



Re-Dismounted..

I like them on the rig I built for them but otherwise think they look too big from a scale aspect...going back to 4.4 to 4.5 tires. The RB standards work really well. Cheaper too.

Sweet job on your build! Really like the pickup bodies, especially the second one. Is it light metallic blue?

Soo.. I am going to post this on each of the vehicles involved, But I got a big set of Axial trail markers....



I also happened to have 7 trucks running....Tamiya Prerunner, SCX10 Toyzuki, SCX10II, TRX4 Bronco, SCX10II Deadbolt, GCM Skeleton JK, and the SCX10 BFD Deadbolt.



Lined up and ready to play.... (Tamiya was an afterthought)



So, there are 7 Videos, each one is a stage, I totaled the time after each stage. This was a no practice run it how you brung it type. If I rolled over I started over. Hope you like it, I found it to be interesting.

Stage 1

So things I figured out.. the scx10II has a bad ESC, the JK struggles, and the SCX10II Deadbolt is pretty good right out of the box.

After Pics...







Fun stuff, thanks for watching.

Beautiful wheels and they look good on that truck with that anodized blue. Sweet ride!

[Crazed]

Thanks, I really like this truck

[Crazed]

So, after the above challenge, I was not happy with where this truck finished compared to the others.
So time for changes.
This truck has always had like a odd hesitation / weird grinding noise in reverse that keeps getting worse. sometimes reverse does not work at all.
So I decided to sway to a motor / esc combo I won in an online auction.

Last shots with the old roc412 / tekin RS combo..





Mmmm Mamba X..




Castle Slate motor..




Not as neat and tidy yet, just wanted to get it running again, see if it helped the issues..




This is cooooool....



Out testing...





Little hillclimb test on the OG Crazed Acres Hill..

Nice build! I am new in this hobby and liked reading your thread so far. Didn't know they had stainless screw kits.
A lot of upgrades, I need to save some before upgrading my build.

[Crazed]

Had a day out in the flowerbeds with my son, decided to do the comparison again, this time it was full runs, Boy runs first then I run. Not really fair to compare my driving times to his as I drive them more often than he does. So I look at it as him comparing the cars then me comparing them. This was reduced from 7 cars to 5, as the first hillclimb proved to be impassable for both. Onlt changes to the vehicles from last time is SSD 8 degree steering on the BFD Deadbolt, and a new Castle Mamba X / Slate 1900 setup on the SCX10II 66 Chevy.
