Needs more triangulation Looks like you've got some chassis flex in there to deal with too Looks like something I'd do...

Hey Pinkfloydman, where are you located? Maybe you might be interested in competing against our LEGO crawlers :-) We wind up mailing our trucks to different competitors houses. Each one hosts an event. We haven't started this years event. We should get it going again though.

I have two, the Rubber Bando with poratals and the Blue Lobster with swing arms. Check out our competition pics and score cards here:

Here are a couple competiton shots:

I think I would win in creativity, articulation and over all design.

Alright alright, the only way to solve this is to stick both trucks in a pen and have a battle royal. Last one standing wins.
