DURATRAX® WELCOMES AUSTIN “GATEKEEPER” DUNN —
AND UNVEILS NEW GATEKEEPER™ R/C CRAWLING PRODUCTS

Austin Dunn is a world-class competitor in R/C rock crawling. Known as “the Gatekeeper”, this 29-year-old Alabama native has been racking up an impressive list of accomplishments with his innovative crawler chassis designs and modifications — a list that already includes nine “firsts” in just the past two years.

Dunn now shares his winning ways with other serious R/C rock crawling enthusiasts through new DuraTrax “GateKeeper” products. Only in this exclusive line will you find competition-ready kits and accessories personally designed by one of the most respected crawlers on the planet!

First comes the GateKeeper Mini GC-3 Chassis Kit, with everything you need to turn your Losi Mini Rock Crawler into an unbeatable 1.9 crawler. The kit has already been proven a winner: Dunn recently crawled to a podium finish in the 2009 R/C Rock Crawling World Championships using this very set-up.

The Mini GC-3 Chassis Kit features gunmetal gray chassis side plates, an axle-mounted servo plate (for standard or mini servos), and rear axle link plate — all manufactured from high-quality, CNC-machined, T6 6061 aluminum.

Also included are strong, anodized aluminum lower links and chassis braces; a low-friction Delrin skid plate to cover the entire bottom of your chassis; high-quality rod ends and rod end balls; adjustable body mount supports and a hardware package.

Join Austin Dunn on the winner’s platform with the GateKeeper GC-3 Chassis and additional GateKeeper products coming soon. Watch for them at your favorite hobby retailer!

DTXC0019 Mini GC-3 Competition Chassis Kit Retail $109.99 Street:$69.99

AVAILABLE: Early November

Austin Dunn’s record speaks for itself. “The Gatekeeper” knows what you need to win!

Lots of people got to see the new chassis this weekend at Crawlapalooza. It is a great looking and performing chassis. It will be great that anyone can go right into their LHS and buy one!

I am really excited to be working with Austin (gatekeeper). This has been in the works for awhile now and it has been hard to keep something so exciting quiet.

This is just the first of many things to come from Gatekeeper Designs.

Big congrats bud. Good work on Jason's part too.
