Default T-Money/Naz-T's XR10

Not much going on yet, stock build just followed the instructions straight though, but she is a roller.
I have to say that the parts fit is real good, I didn't have any issues at all. She went together beautifully. I had Dirty Mike squirt the body and I think it turned out great

Great job Axial

Here is some pics

Because my rig is kind of a display model and spends a ton of time being fondled at my shop, I wanted to have a paint job that the customers would easily associate with the XR10 and didn't take away from the rig itself, but was still unique. I really like the body lines on the Hardline so I wanted them to stand out a bit too. I think Dirty Mike pulled it off perfectly.

Well the first thing to change will be the lower links. They'll be traded out for some orange Axial machined links (when ever they come off backorder). I was debating between gray and orange. I decided Orange because it'll stand out a bit and customers at the shop will notice them a bit more (helps with sales )

For motors I'm thinking just a set of Novak 45t's
ESC.... Well I'd love to say I'm going to be running a Novak M2 dig but I'm not holding my breath . It'll probably just be an FXr and a Punk.

No.
The M2 dig is an ESC and dig all in one unit.

Wow Didn't realize it had been this long

Well I've get her all up and running, just in time for the 801RCC 2011 point series. I had to through a few things together right before the 1st comp so it wasn't setup very well but I was still able to drive this beauty to a very respectable 2nd place finish.

Since then I've been spending a ton of time bench tuning this bad boy lately and I think I've got her dialed in (at least till I get out for some more real world testing) I did get all the links swapped out for orange anodized machined aluminum bad boys. As usual I needed something to make her stand out a bit from the other rigs on the rocks so with the help of some friends I was able to get these a little while ago. I've got them all mounted up and I must say they look SICK!! I'll post more pics a bit later.





Stay tuned more updates coming very soon.

She sure is pretty with those new links!!!
You should probably just not compete this weekend, so you don't scratch them.
Plus I plan on laying the smack down anyways, so it won't hurt as much when I beat you!

Yeah I was installing them and all I had was the cell phone Now that I've got them on the rig (along with some other goodies) I'll get a few pics with a better camera

If your referring to the first couple of rig pics they were taken in a true light box

Been awhile. I've made a bunch of changes and tweaks to the rig since my last post. I picked up a BJv4 and a full set of Chaotic Crawler tie links, all I can say is WOW!! Absolutely beautiful combination! The BJv4 is sweet. I mainly switched to get a smaller skid area and a bit more visibility under the rig. So far it's been great. I've really missed having a bodiless rig.
The Chaotic Crawler links are top notch, the fit is incredible. I had no issues at all, I just threw the rod ends on, checked the lengths, and bolted them up, prefect!! these links are lighter than the stage 3 kit and give much more clearance, not to mention a super clean look.

I toped it off with a little paint that I wanted to experiment with, I think it turned out awesome!!!
