Mmm wonder woman. If I know you it'll look fast whilst sitting still.

If your meh makes you change your mind on the last two, consider the castle slate motors. Got one geared somewhat conservatively and it's never been above room temps after 4hrs or so of runtime.

I'll check that out...I know you like wheel speed and I have no weight in the wheels for that very reason....can you balloon a tire? It's about as quick as the rat rod was...but I want more

Like a little kid

Lol I don't have the gearing for balloon but I'm sure a higher kv and 3s will... Maybe 4s?

If you put Wonder Woman as the driver... wouldn't you need a clear unpainted lexan shell? ;)

Thanks guys...

Like the thread implies...I wish I could weld like this
Always been a fan of the metal chassis....eliminate the plastic from all my builds as much as possible...no lexan bodies for me CLM

Still struggling with the accent color....it just can't be all black
Saw a few U-tube videos of Tim Cameron's rigs...some of the latest ones have a few body panels....hmmm

Wonder Woman would add some patriotic colors.... Of course there's always teal

Tim Cameron makes some bad ass buggies. Im an avid offroader and we have several Cameron buggies in the area whos owners compete in the Southern Rock Racing Series. If you're bored, find MadRam11 on youtube and you can pretty much see any bouncer chassis ever built in his videos

Love Tim Cameron...he's got more money than cents though
Lots of money involved in his stuff...hard for me to justify even in scale

Ok....
Was a bit disappointed with the 13.5 brushless I had in here...wanted a bit more wheel speed and some hop

Found a 10.5t Tekin Redline from an RCC member (thanks Bulldog...great deal ) Holly crap !!! dropped a couple of teeth on my pinion to control some heat...feels like I could go back. No heat at all, and this thing launches like it's on steroids....

Only issue I have is the Tekin is about a 1/4" longer than the Thunderpower 13.5 I had in there...had to raise the interior up just a bit.

Now I want a video...

Soon

Thanks for looking

A little update
Dlux Fab truss for strength.

Doesn’t hurt the looks at all either

The truss is surprisingly strong...real pleased with that.

I keep looking at your build on this...I like the fuel tank in the back, might have to copy that also looking at some selective panels to hide the electronics once they are waterproofed.

I forgot how quick this is with a 10.5 .... hella fun to rip around. Have to find a nice hill to climb now

I busted an axle....:
Actually stripped some screws....I originally got these axles in a trade...never looked inside for gears/locker etc...
Was not happy with the guts....

Updates soon...found some metal axles I want to try
