Default 5:13 Pro

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.

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.
