Won't be a ton of build pics but have a couple. Parts list: Dlux superlites 7075 centers Rcbro large gears with pin mod and drilled out for weight SDS small gears Rcbro lockers Axial Chubs Dlux knuckles and weights Rcbro shocks Dlux wheels Silver Voodoo's CI foams Y-Town Double Agent Dlux ti links alum balls alum hardware Skins in the works HH br minis Castle BEC Hitec 7950 Futaba 2106GF receiver Futaba 4PX Team Brood HHK-T Stubbies 35t (Soon to be Nexus HHK-T 30T) On to some pics Last edited by mammoth; 03-02-2015 at 09:27 AM. |

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! 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! |

About fricken time you put up a build thread Good to see the tuning we did to the truck before the comp made a difference 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. Last edited by chevotafun; 02-24-2015 at 07:36 AM. |

Great looking truck Randy. Finally a chassis change from the antiquated Chaotic stuff. I can't wait to see some video from the comp. 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. Mmmmmm double dip comp weekend. EDIT: I noticed that you have skins in the works. Ever thought of a slick BC Paints paint job? Last edited by Krawler Kev; 02-24-2015 at 07:49 AM. Reason: BHO for the win. |

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!! | ||||

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.... |

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

Super you say? Who'd a thunk it! 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! | ||
