And the future plans are STRC brass chubs,SSD brass knuckles,STRC brass diff cover,STRC brass lockouts and STRC brass suspension and link mounts.This will glue the car to the ground.

Fitted new home made bumper,with an XL stinger,wich I had the chance to test today,and climbing and crawling on rocks or large lugs has improved hugely.Added some lights aswell.Next maybe I'l do some metal sliders

Since yesterday was a testing day for the upcoming comps,the rear bumper was giving me some huge desavantages at the leaving angle.Since it was getting hunged up on climbs,I decided to tuck it as musch as i could to line the body.2 holes drilled,and the problem vas solved,this is how it looks.More testing to be done on this car,as I want to peeform at its best
