Parts list looks good now ya just need to go have some fun with it!!!

[WooPigSooie]

Yeah I'm looking forward to the next comp season. Last season I had an extremely heavy rig and now that it is down about 1lb it should do better.

[chicklet]

Looks great! You coming to Nationals?

[WooPigSooie]

No I didn't qualify. I thought about coming anyway but i'm not gonna make it this year.

[chicklet]

You should come and drive in the LCQ....even if you don't drive, its going to be a BLAST!

[WooPigSooie]

I wish I could but i'm going back to school this fall and money will be an issue. I might if I could hitch a ride lol

[slowride1]

well if i could pic you up i would my man . i had a blast with that chasis an it did me really well. would like to see you drive it as well as i did if not better.


looks killer just like before lol

[WooPigSooie]

Thanks man I appreciate it!!!

[WooPigSooie]

Here is my electronics setup. I covered it in heat shrink wrap.





And yes the soldering is shitty but that was before I had my Hakko FX-888 lo

[slowride1]

Yeah ever since you moved we have made major changes to both of our rigs.

[Tgreer]

It just will not work!!! You need to give it up!!!

[WooPigSooie]

I'm sure it will work just fine but I'll prob drive like shit lol

[slowride1]

jd is just mad cause he couldnt ever get his to work like mine was .
it was really hard for me to give up that chasis an move to the switch

[WooPigSooie]

I hope I do it justice!

[slowride1]

you will that truck is very easy to drive .

i cant help on the big bore setup but i can with losi shocks
hope you have ran both an can to the big bores to acked like a losi

i have run 4 sets of shocks now an one being the best there is out there an still fight with myself to not put my losi shocks back on now

[WooPigSooie]

Yeah i have run both on my xr. I just prefer the big bores for clearance and having dealt with them for years on monster trucks. I think i've got it set up pretty good as a starting point so now I just need to test test test.
