Rocky Mountain Oyster Cannon

[Almighty Malach]

Or, the new Y-Town Double Agent





This is all you get tonight, I'm tired. I plan on having this car built this weekend, if all goes well this is the car I plan to run next weekend for the Colorado Nationals Spot Crawl off

[Postclanker]

Nice pit towel


Want to re-build my XR-Mantis...not sure why , crawls pretty darn nice
Maybe I need another project for the summer

[Almighty Malach]

Narrow narrow goodness.

[Almighty Malach]

Moar!



Not entirely sure I will need to space the uppers out, but I'll mock it up that way.

[Almighty Malach]

Front links are done. Articulation is smooth and bind free so far, and the ride height looks close. Shooting for 3 1/4" at full droop with boss claws

[ROWDY RACING]

You so crazy...

[gdhknives]

At least I will get to see it next Saturday. If you can get off your ass and finish it.

I made the mistake of agreeing to 10 hours days to make up for the holiday. Hopefully it's drivable Thursday night. If not, I'm takin Friday off

I have an idea in the event I pull the threads out. As long as I remember to not crank the gear case screws down they should be fine.

Your voodoo charm dance isn't strong enough for that. A strippers might be though...






It's a roller! It's not right yet, but I know exactly what to change now.




Just under a tire. Both ends hit the bumps at the same time, which is perfect. No weird issues there...




Got uptravel?




Shot from the front to show how narrow everything is, cab is just under 1.500" Even with the shock arms spaced this far off the main chassis plates, it doesn't move. Should make for a very predictable and stable platform

[sidehill]

Well i got to try something to beat you! Your front link mounts on backward!

This chassis is gonna have to grow on me... first thing I though when I first saw it was "That looks like a freakin Platypus!"

[gdhknives]

Don't bank on the stripper voodoo. Looks skinny with a big beak, (the rig, not you this time.)

[ROWDY RACING]

Nice mudder.

The whole point of the wide nose is for stickers. Gotta show love to the sponsors

I am. I'm watching it grow on a steady diet of Special K, slim jims, beer and no exercise


It's alive with the old axles under it. I didn't think the new chassis would be too much lighter than the secret agent, but I lost 1.5oz. Some of that is body panels, but I think most of it came from a lack of hodge podge of spacers and steel screws like the SA. Right now it's at 3.18lbs with 1.5oz of knuckle weight
