So is this going to be your 2.2 entry at Crawlapalooza?

Re: Szczerba's 2.2 CXT
 

Yep I found it looking for a body to put in is thread. Then I decided to try and build it.

Yep. The rear is about 1" longer than front, even with an extended rear TRANS output.
That's gay.

For scale? If it holds up through the Recon G6 in Hot Springs next weekend.

Most of chassis burned in.

Started on body mount
Setup. $2 hinge from Tractor Supply.
A support frame will tie it all together.

Cool Build, will be following this one.

How do you like those valuehobby.com battery?

Re: Szczerba's 2.2 CXT
 

it's getting there...

I would add some supports for the body,that lil strip aint gonna hold after a few rollovers.
Maybe some supports like I added in pic to make use of the existing body post.

Thanks. Hoping it won't be a turd on the trail!

Been using Valuehobby Lipos for a few years now. Like them all and they are a great buy/value for the price.

Re: Szczerba's 2.2 CXT

Re: Szczerba's 2.2 CXT
 

The cab will have plenty of support. Going to use 1/4" Tube and RCP fab tabs to make a small support inner cage.
