The standoffs are 2.090 to be exact. I'm going to look into having the standoffs made by another shop, with the right equipment to mass produce them.

Have they been cut? I was thinking I might have seen my black one by now, but no love yet.

They are in the mail. I didn't make it to the P.O. on Friday, they went out yesterday. I shipped everything via Priority Mail since I was late getting them out.

Ok cool. I've had replacement mail carriers for like 5 days running and my regular guy showed up today with a load of mail. He gets pissy because the fill ins don't bring all my crap. I'm signed up for so much free stuff I get magazines just about every day of the year.

With some luck, I'll have that built up by the end of the week for our next comp over the weekend. Nothing like a new rig to break in during a comp.

The SW3 should work fine with WK axles, there are a fews guys that have built them up so far.

Damn you Bender. I just got this in and given how light it is, now I'm going to have a 3rd rig I'm going to have to decide between for every comp.

Workmanship is fantastic (as was the SW2) and I like that the tranny mount plate wasn't drilled. I'm going to put a stealth on there.

I very much like the improved weight of this over the SW2. Great changes were made.

Decisions.

Thanks for the compliments on the chassis. The SW3 is alot lighter then the SW2.
