Other than the some hub weights and shock tuning, mine is pretty close to factory spec....keep in mind though, I am using KLR tires which make every other tire seem like solid forklift tires...lol

Without a doubt, this is THE BEST 1.9 rig I have ever owned and it's got the least amount of money sunk into it....go figure.

I have discovered the same thing bill, out of the box it is just about perfect...it will keep up with and out pace most of my heavily, invested in, rigs with lots of aftermarket improvements...

almost makes me sad lol! I gotta get the bug out more soon!

Is that the Yeti front bumper? It looks like it fits better than the stock Posion Spyder.

Yes, it's a Yeti front bumper with EXO bumper mounts.

Very nice Bil. The videos make it look like the SCX10 II is your rock bouncer and the Bombers are your crawlers. Video 2 is awesome.

I hear ya...this thing bounces really well, even with a 1800 kV motor.

One other point I would like to mention....I see no reason to reverse the transmission, too much weight forward isn't necessarily a good thing and I find my SCX10 II is extremely well balanced the way it is.

Really glad to hear that from someone that has had the rig out and tested it.

I'll second that non-motion. It's in an excellent place from the factory. Many hours on my truck and everything's right where I want it.

Bill, did you do anything with the wheelbase or just centre the G6 body on the longer 12.3 wheelbase?

The WB is stock...luckily the G6 body is very forgiving for centering the wheels in the overly large "wheel arches".
