2013 T1E Berg by Colby *Now with Bulldog Gear Cases*

[Colby]

Guess its time i posted up my newest comp rig. I guess i can blame grimreaper for this money pit.

Got these parts off of monstergt. I want to try one of these light weight setups.
-Blue carbon fiber older style moonbuggy
-Ti links
-big bore shocks
-dlux rear tubes
-lathed front tubes
-axial c's and vp knuckles
-rc axle masters in the rear.

Just going to go piece by piece.

Taking bets now how long it hangs around






Seriously though...it was always fun having you in the 2.2p class

[Colby]

Thanks farmer, lol

And thanks Ryan! No telling how long it will stay. I need to see if you have some old used cases or gears i can slap on it to get it built up. I thought i did but i was weong. Threw it all away :(

[Colby]

Got some tires to tun from my buddy rolandrockshop. Khaos with rover sidewalls and a set of boss claws. Thanks josh!

[Grimreeper]

I havent got anything started yet. I bet that I can get a rig going before you do. Lets race.

[Monstergt]

Since my chassis finally got here I'll be running before you lol

[Colby]

Still trying to put some pennies together. Just spent 400 bucks on tuition so the build kind of slowed slower than it was previously

[Colby]

Got me some nova foams for the khaos tires and a 4PL from TURTLE. Heath at CowRC hooked me up with this badass "skull cow" skin by freq skins.

No kidding. Just need to order some little things from Dlux and it might be a roller sometime before our next comp, lol

[Colby]

Looks like I may make it to our next local comp

Electronics will be shipping monday-tuesday-ish.

-Holmes 35t hand wounds
-Smashed and decased BRXL's
-Futaba S9157
-Castle BEC

Got some wheels on the way from Rusty as well. Waiting on a few other little things (Shocks, front shafts, knuckles and Chubs) to make it in and I should have it moving under its own power. Going to make some custom upper link mounts for the axles, then make some links when I get some shocks.

Heres a little progress pic.

Now were getting somewhere. I guess I need to finish mine so you dont end up beating me. Looks good so far. Dont let the little things hold you up. Lets get on some rocks.

[Colby]

Yep! Just need 1 more paycheck and it should be running. Gotta get a new charger and some comp batteries. Everything i used to have is too old

[Colby]

Needing some help here.... I have never ran the Dlux rear tubes and shock mounts. I have no clue what needs to go where, im sure I can figure it out when my upper link mounts come in and when I can get some wheels and tires bolted on.

Made some front upper links, a mock up link mount, and tossed on some power strokes. Hoping to have all of my parts in by the weekend and on into next week. Getting really excited!

If you butted the link/shock mounts up against the lock outs, your in good shape. Mine are installed so the bottom 2 holes are what get used and so that I could move them " up" if the rear was too clocked. If I'm totally missing the request for input, please say so. I could also email ya a pic of mine if you'd like. I run those tubes front and rear. Build looks great so far!!
