Well I finally have gotten around to installing my RC Bros tubes. I waited until I could get some of creeper Bob's lightweight ti shafts. Been trying to build up my Subaru so the Berg has been shunned somewhat Install was super simple and the index marks made things a lot easier. The ti shafts fit great also, although I had 95geo take a 7mm bit through the tubes to make sure they fit. Thanks bro With that mod I lost around a 1 1/2 oz. So now I'm at 4.024 pounds RTR. I guess if I get my gears drilled or due so al hardware I will be under 4. This will be the last mod before ECC other than fresh motors. Now to get to practicing........ Later, Farmer |

Looking good! You can loose alittle more weight by flipping your rear wheels and running a smaller hub. The more you take out of the rear the less weight you need up front every bit counts haha

Small update......Ran the rig this weekend at our first outdoor comp of the season and ran the rig at 4.016 pounds. Rig felt awesome and did everything I wanted it to. Had a little issue the day before working on the Forseter and lobbed off a good chunk of my trigger finger tip So the first course got me. Half way through I decided to use my middle finger and it was on. Went from last after the first course and ended up holding down 2nd for the rest of the day Last night I lightened all my gears, thanks to Mustangboy for the bad ass jig Tonight I'm gonna clapp my rovers to get the tires to soften up a bit more for the small diet she is going on. Will post up weight when it's back together. Once my pullers are here I should be well under 4 pounds and will more than likely throw some more weight on the knuckles, but we will see Later, Farmer |

Nice job this weekend man! It took everything I had in me to hold you off even missing a finger!!! Plus I know if I had drawn the first spot on the first course like you, I would have been in the same position! Truck looks and runs awesome man, keep up the good work!! Run it light this weekend man, see how she treats ya at sub 4lb weight range... You can be the guinea piglol, j/k. I just hope to be even close to on the same level as you one day!!! |
