Well hadn't time to post the updates ,so here i go, moved the tranny to the center, required a lot of grinding of the case, got the paddles mounted on the wheels, i also lenghtened the front links 1 1/2" more than the rear, i only have tested it on pavement and it's very fast, i will take it out this weekend and shoot some video

Well i have been busy and finally got some time to take the wk for small test, this is only a couple runs on 2s and on the second video the lipo was almost dead, but you'll get the idea, overall i really liked the performance, need to soften the front springs a little more and get a vid on 3s

I still do. I have only built one about 2 years ago and wish I'd have earlier. Hard lesson learned: Do not to drive it on a beach as everything seized and needed to be replaced. I think ill make mine a snow only foff.
