On to some pics

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

First outdoor comp with the rig with the boys form WARCRC and got the win. Have to say the rig isn't far off from being dialed in!"thumbsup"
I know some guys have some pics and video of the comp. When I get my hands on it I'll add it to the thread!
Again thanks guys for having me down for this one was a beautiful day out on the rocks with a great group!"thumbsup"

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Great looking rig,,,,
What do you think off the nexus motors???

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Good job Randy! Can't wait to see video of that comp. I love the look of that spot on top of the mountain. "thumbsup"

Looks like you have put a lot of thought in that rig. Top notch stuff all around. Glad it's working fo ya! "thumbsup"

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

About fricken time you put up a build thread :roll::roll:
Good to see the tuning we did to the truck before the comp made a difference "thumbsup"

Also glad the super worked well for you.

Better make a build thread for your super since you haven't built anything on it yet. :twisted:

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Great looking truck Randy."thumbsup"

Finally a chassis change from the antiquated Chaotic stuff.

I can't wait to see some video from the comp.:twisted:

I've been chatting up the fellas here in Calgary and we are going to try to line up a weekend where we can comp with LMRCC and WARCRC.:shock:

Mmmmmm double dip comp weekend.

EDIT: I noticed that you have skins in the works. Ever thought of a slick BC Paints paint job?

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

As soon as I get them in and tested I'll let you know. Still running the stubbies at the moment as they are still an excellent motor!"thumbsup"

Thanks Samu! I did put a lot of thought into this rig before I pulled the trigger on these parts and I have to say they have come together very nicely!

Ya ya better late than never... Yes the shock tuning has improved my overall control of the rig. Thanks!"thumbsup"

Thanks Kev! "thumbsup" I know it was about time to move on from Chaotic even thou it served me well.

Video will be coming I'm sure as I know Chad has taken some. I'll see if he can make a video of just me for the thread.

I haven't pulled the trigger on any skins yet as you will see once the photos and video come out. I have been considering Ryan just thinking about my options at the moment!

Thanks again everyone and thanks to all the vendors that made this rig possible!!"thumbsup"

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

the chaotic crawlers chassis is extreme good,,
my first 2.2pro chassis was a switch and I am very happy with the way it smashes rocks on the course,,he he he..
and the nexus motors is the new form for stubby,,the stubby is history and the nexus has taken it`s place....

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

So much carbon in those first couple of pics! Crazy!

Car looks great!

Youre building a super? :shock::mrgreen:

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Those knuckle weights are pretty crazy too. Good way to keep the weight where you want it but get it way out there.

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Yes I know the stubbies are history. I need to get some practice time with the nexus before I take them out to a comp.

Yes a $hit load of carbon but looks good!

Super you say? Who'd a thunk it!:twisted:

Yes the knuckle weight works great! I have removed some from the first pics and it seems to be a prefect balance! Thanks for the sweet design!"thumbsup"

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

I think eric is tired off the carbonfiber look at all the bodyless chasisises these days,,,and all the carbonfiber on the transcans also...
he he he.. I still think carbonfiber looks kinda sexy,,'
but on the chassis there will come some skinz,, I dont know what to do with the transcans doug....
maby G10 in somekinda color????

That is one BEAUTIFUL place to crawl. :mrgreen:

Great driving and thanks for posting up."thumbsup"

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Thanks Todd! Yes it did really well considering it had only one indoor run before the comp! Y-town makes a great chassis!"thumbsup"

Thanks Kev its a great place to crawl "thumbsup" just be careful with the throttle as you don't want to go off the cliff! Like my sporty last time there!:lmao:

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

We had the last indoor comp of our winter season and managed to pull of another win with the dbl agent."thumbsup" This truck just seems to do work and can't be happier heading outside in couple weeks for the start of the summer series! Going to have a back to back comp with the gents (well except Berto) from WARCRC and then our season opener! Going to be a fun weekend of crawling. Going to have to do a good check of all my rigs to make sure there good to go!

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

damn what a beautiful place to have a crawler comp..
and a great looking rig aswell,
PS, how mutch weight do you have in the front?
Looks like the rig was pretty light in the front. am I right??

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Well we had our 2nd comp of the summer series and I managed to squeak out the win after being down and out for 2 months with an illness. It was a long day for a guy with no energy but was good to get out there again with the guys on the rocks!

Once the video gets uploaded I'll post it up!

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Great job Randy."thumbsup"

Glad to hear that you are feeling better too.

Coming to BOTW?:mrgreen:

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

Here's some video from the comp as promised. Course 2 & 3 and the start of 4. Video man is still learning his camera so it gets a little dark at times. All in all a really day out on the rocks!"thumbsup"

Awesome Tom! Thanks for doing that!

Re: Mammoth's journey to the berg
 

So big news for me!:D Even though the Dbl Agent has served me well so far I've gotten an opportunity I just couldn't pass up! Chris from 5th Dimension has asked me to join his team and I gladly accepted."thumbsup" So with that being said I will be changing chassis' as soon as he can get one to me and I'll be starting a new thread to go along with the new chassis and team!

Thanks again Chris and I look forward to driving The Dominator and Sucker Punch chassis'!"thumbsup"
