Extremely fawking happy with the way things are turning out. Gonna leave the rear alone other than a swaybar link change and focus on electronics placement next. Drive shaft angkes are the best I've ever had and everything is cycling really smooth on the bench. |

Dlux knuckles are on but I didn't think about the taller chubs on a xr so what was minimal clearancing is now turning into major. Off to walmart for more sanding drums. Good thing the comp is in the morning |

First impression of the Growlers.. Disappointment They're not as big as I was hoping. If it's not a magical compound I'll be back to trepadors. |

Stock foams felt stiff and I had some major wheel hop but every new tire has done that on my rig and I only ran about 1000mah before I shredded the bec on the spur gear.

Won the 1.9 g6 with 2wd and a broken lower link Won the 2.2 g6 with 1.9 tires Won a scx10 deadbolt in a raffle Locked the transmission up in the u4 Growlers seem to love wheel speed. Couldn't get them to slow crawl like I want but break in should fix that. |

Dig installed Duuuuuuuude link mounts fit like a glove Removed the fat girls so I can access wheel spacers Played a little with shock angles and oil but went back to what I had. CI closed cell inners with custom outers New electronics layout that places everything on the skid. Couple shitty pics showing upper link clearance. Hoping to run it in the 2.2 pro class this Sunday. I'm that confident in this rig. With that said.. I'm working with a very talented chassis builder so in 6ish weeks I'll be bouncing in Bombshell. |

Gonna run this in the 2.2 PRO class this Sunday. It won't be a legit score but I'll be bragging about it Things to do: Finish electronics trays Solder the rest of my 360mah packs Find a good home for some JMRC license plates Organize tool / screw trays Put a fuse on the dig linkage Bump bec to 6.9v Play with timing / boost |

Dang man, I thought you were gonna run in it in 2.2 trail. 2.2 Pro should be interesting. I guess if you beat my xr10, I need to find a new hobby |

I'm feeling lucky and confident with dig and if I break I'll fix it during 2.2 trail.
