Are you going to try and duplicate the weight and CG setup of the old rig before doing further tuning?

I have a set of those shocks from SuperShafty as well, can't wait to try them out!

I'm hoping to, after States this weekend she will be getting a diet though. Old rig was 4 pounds 8 ounces with a 450 4 cell with 2.7 oz of knuckle weight on each side. Hoping to get her down to 4 flat with the same amount of knuckle weight I'll be getting in touch in the next day or two

Looking good Farmer! Last night I found I have a new Chump still in the bag that I've yet to tinker with. One day.

Set up sheet has been mysteriously misplaced Hey Craig the berg is on 4 cell with 30 turn skewed now so the go pro is a must Even with all the set up help I still need to show up. We all know that can be very hit or miss

True story.

I have been in your shoes before. In my experience Nabil's setup will reward you for attacking the course and punish you for dicking around. Drive hard, do good.

Thanks man, I'm all in The rig is getting closer, just sitting here nit picking some stuff. I'll throw a pic or two up in a bit. Man I love this chassis and it hasn't even hit the rocks yet. She will definetley be ready for the weekend, but will be tore back down right after the comp. I already want to change a couple things, but nothing to do with the "setup". Just some material changes.

Just a few pics of the progress today. Ended needing to redo my front uppers to get my gear case a bit lower. Then threw some 20 weight and mini-t pinks on my 3.5" velvets. Electronics are all secure and ready to go. I will end up mounting the body and mess with getting the wheelbase dead nuts tomorrow. Man it's weird not having a bodiless rig Although it does give me a warm fuzzy fealing On to the lame bench pics.



More tomorrow
Later,
Farmer
