Default special trucks for Busse

Anyone else thinking of or working on a special truck for the Busse comps?

I know myself i decided to start on a tube buggy, just barely legal frame, 11" WB Some Tires with a little less grip (that just seems wrong).

Yeah

Narrow belly

Higher clearance

Larger tires

Lots of flex



Already working on it.

We should try a different location at Busse for one of our future comps, I think the rocks are similar but slightly different with size and spacing in between, anybody interested in checking out the other locations before we have another comp there?

There's two more locations very near the area we had our comp, one location has parking a little closer too.

I started to build a tube chassis but it wasnt coming out so well... so I had this predator that I broke the rear on while experimenting with bending so.....

Width is just a touch over legal limit... Its longer than I wanted but not sure of a good way to give it a nose job
