| Addict's T1E 1.9 Rockshow
A big thanks to Silas @ T1E for hookin' up a brutha I've had this lil rig built for a week or so and it's just as bad ass as its big brother! Zero torque twist, an amazing little chassis, extremely stable/predictable....LOVE IT My Goodies T1E 1.9 Rockshow chassis MRC running gear (w/ steel lockers, cvds, knuckles, Cs) Mini Late Model shocks DNA Thrashers C & S Panther Cougs Castle Sidewinder micro & CCBEC Holmes Hobbies mini Torquemaster HiTec 645mg 850mah 7.4 lipos bound to my 3PK I decided to dye my links orange to match one of my Bergs ;)OUT OF THE INFERNO...Hellstrom/Berg Axles mounted up.... Anyone who knows my builds will recognize my removable electronics tray. ESC, BEC, RX all mounted up to a piece of .060 lexan. Easy in, Easy out Electo tray installed Feelin' a little naked... Fabbed up some panels similar to my 2.2 Rockshow. Took some .060 lexan cut, & then formed using a heat gun. These panels are rigid & last FOREVER;). Complete Rig A few shots on my 1.9 course... I've got a little wheel time with this set-up, all I can say is WOW. Biggest difference is there is virtually NO TT with this chassis. Even in STEEP climbs under throttle she stays planted Like the 2.2 Rockshow, very small package, NO body to get hung-up on everything!!! Can't wait to run it in our next 1.9 comp...IT'S ON Last edited by RockAddict75; 05-29-2009 at 07:21 AM. |

I didn't realy like the naked chassis, think it looks 10 times better with the pannels! |

Nice build. The panels look great. IMO the tires just look TOO big for it though.

Trust me the Cougs may look a little odd, but they work like a MOFO Claws & Bashers can't hang! I've got some new shoes in the works... 1.9 Plowboys(C & S Panther Cobras) They will end up being shorter, & no ugly sidewall bulge. Thanks Silas, Can't wait to see what panels you've got up your sleeve for your 1.9. I've seen your airbrush work B4....SICK | |

| a 'LIL update
Thanks for all the kind remarks I've comped the 'lil Rockshow a few times in the last couple months and won 'em all! The 1.9 'Show is just like it's 2.2 counterpart...SPOT ON I inboarded the front shocks, and fabbed up a 4link/servo plate to accomodate the new shock placement. Added some MIP driveshafts (bulletproof), after twisting OFF half a dozen stockers! Installed a HS-5645mg for steering duty. I also cut & shut some Panther Cobras. These tires ROCK! Forward bite like a mofo, and they sidehill great. A few pics from comp (thanks to CrunchBarry for the killer shots) |

Really, really, really nice! It looks narrow? Mind saying what the track width is? And how tall did the panther C & S tires turn out to be? |

That has to be the most god awful crawler I have ever seen. What with the bodged together tires, and funny colored links... There is no way in hell that thing will ever work, and I call B.S. on it winning anything. I think you should box it up and send it straight to me so I can do a fine analysis on how 'great' it works... purely in the intrest of proving to the rest of us that it doesnt suck... I mean, we cant just go around making outlandish claims. So, when can I expect my new crawler to arrive in the mail... |

What tires are you running when you removed the Panther's by the way rig looks killer.
