I think it would be pretty tough. I just looked at mine and the arms on the chubs are pretty dang big, even with my 1.9's. Remember my VP chubs, they hit the tires with my same 1.9's. It seems like you'd have to build new chubs as well and then they might limit the turning.

Yes, I did at one time want some shorter axles. Now I've trimmed my fenders and installed flares so I don't think it would look right. That thing performs so well too that I don't want to mess with the width.

I'm not sure anyone even noticed the giant hole! No one commented on it, which surprised me. It's not like I went home when it happened, haha.

Well, what did you expect?

Guy at track: "hey man, nice brown & white polkadot underpants!"
Trey: "huh? I put on plain white underpants this morning?"

Ofcourse nobody said anything. Your the guy that smashed into the concrete wall at 30mph to beat a child. You can't be THAT guy AND the underpants guy!

not much different from the merv.

you need a huge nitro powered 2 speed solid axle rig that will pull torque wheelies.

that sounds good except for the nitro part.

Actually, that's what this was, I just never used it... I think I'll get more use out of a mini cause I can take it to the track!

If you want to, I'm up for it.
How long a drive is that for you?

I need to get out there this weekend no matter what, I have to test Melons with the interior... I'm really worried I've lost my mad side hilling capabilities.

I may have to lose the extra 10 points for comps and just run them in the TTC's.

then why have you been brazing for the past 4 months!?

and no, TTC's are very different than our regular trail comps.
The Rubicon and maybe sorta kinda but not really the Tank Trap are the only events close to our regular comps.
