This isn't really a build thread being I traded my 5:12 sporty for it. So I'd like to say thanks to Alamo71. The chump rt chassis was a bit dull so I cleaned it up a bit with some 220 sand paper. Before After Assembled On the scale Delrin wheels and Shaved red dot BC's On the scale Chassis mounted to the axles Front axle Rear axle Roller Body mock up |

Killer stuff partner! It will be cool to have another set of those axles out next season. I may be making changes but I know my white tubes are going one more year.

Yes it's ugly, heavy and old school! But it works and works rather well so off to the rocks. |

Well I picked up a 4pl the other day so I should be up to speed with my electronics. Tomorrow's task will be decasing fxr's and soldering them together. I have no experience with this so any advice will be helpful. One fxr is already deposted and the other is still factory.
