| Dominator, Dlux, Dice.......Oh my
I am not into a build thread, however, I figure I should put up my "built" thread. I will update it as time goes on but here's where I'm at right now. Chassis - 5th Dimension Dominator. Great looks, great performance, and a great team to be a member of. Rear Lower Links - Dlux Ti. I have had these links as long as I've owned a berg 5 yrs? maybe 6?? Front Lower Links - Ti Made by the 2015 Worlds 2.2S Champion Stilist. Upper Links - Ti Made by the 2015 Worlds 2.2S Champion Stilist. Shocks - Lathed Traxxas Big Bores with Losi pink springs, Dlux no preload spring cups. Axles - Dlux Super Lites - The only axle to run.....nuff said. Gears - RCBros and SDS - a match made in heaven. Knuckles - Dlux in 7075. Weights - Dlux Loaded Dice - The lowest in town. Front Shafts - Dlux w/ OFNA stubs Rear Shafts - Dlux. Wheels - Dlux in black G10. Tires - Rovers w/ 5.5 narrow Crawler Innovations Double Deuce. Tires - Purpmart narrowed blue Voodoos w/ 6.0 narrow Crawler Innovations Double Deuce. ESC - Castle Sidewinder Micros smashed and BEC. Motors - Brood Stubbies - Not sure on the wind as they came from The Violator. Servo - Hitec 7950 w/ aluminum top by Summit R/C Products. Radio - Futaba 4PL Batteries - Nanotech 450mah 3s Now onto a few pictures... My journey with 5th Dimension begins here. It has been my "thing" that after a big comp I leave my shoes behind. These are my shoes at the Las vegas airport before my flight home after finishing 5th at 2015 Worlds. I arrived home and a few PM's later with Cboggs, aka the 5th D Pimp, I was on the team. It is a real honor to work Chris and the other members of the team. 2016 should be super bad ass. I couldn't wait to get the new chassis bolted to my Super Lites and get driving it. It felt great even though I have only been able to drive it indoors at my good friend Codies house. This is not a great picture of Codie but... Maximum GC Full compression Ride height Full left lock Full right lock Flex Glamour So far this chassis is really.........err.......comfortable. Right out of the box it was top shelf. Thanks again Chris. Questions? Comments? Let me know. Last edited by Krawler Kev; 01-18-2016 at 11:42 AM. Reason: Comp crawling will never die |

Looks great man! I am not sure everybody else looks at these cars like I do but I love all the small details that let me know you put this thing together proper! The shoe thing is weird, I will leave that alone. |

Rig looks great Kev! The Dominator is one bad ass chassis, I know because I had Robbob beating up on me with his all last season!! The 5th D team is stacked this year. I hope to get to comp with you someday. Best of luck with the new ride and new team! |
