Haha! Yeah, he stays up a bit later than I do. Yeah, neither the front nor rear uppers are finalized, I need to get some new ones bent up. Thanks for the tips on the shocks. |

Hi Jeremy, Do you know the weight for the chassis? What is the upper body gonna be? Could you do some measurement for me (pm sent)? Thanx! |

I finished up the wiring and got this truck running: (BTW, please ignore the weird marks on the axles, I stepped away from this build and came back to find my kid marking it up with a red sharpie......luckily, I remembered that rubbing alcohol will remove sharpie...) Unfortunately I cant go drive this truck right now............because it is raining! (we desperately need the rain around here) Last edited by JeremyH; 09-18-2011 at 03:26 PM. |

Looks like someone hacked up and recycled a body there....... Also, what's with all the weird markings on the axles and servo..... Looks nice Jeremy, will be interesting to hear how you like driving it. |

| Pfffft. That's nothing compared to this. So Jeremy, did you ever get an RTR weight of it? Last edited by TSK; 09-19-2011 at 02:37 PM. |

| Yeah, it's a bit of an inside joke... It sits right at 5lb 8oz RTR (same as my berg).....and I made no attempts at lightening this truck. I took this truck for a drive at the local spot and I must say..........I really hate the Punk dig. IIRC, this is the third or fourth that has crapped out on me since they came out. Two Mamba Micro Pros ordered. |
