My 1st 1.9 comp rig
 

This is my 1.9 mini hopefully it will perform decently I got some tips from Shelby (4xFord) on this build and minis in general he also helped me out with a lot of the parts thanks again bud, anyways its basically done I just need to paint up the body.
specs:
GC3 chassis
mrc axles with metal lockers
tranny with alun gears and locker
alum c's still need some alum knuckles but I did a zero ack mod
delrin lowers
losi alum beadlocks
chisels
nova single stage foams
losi alum shocks
micro sidewinder with cc bec
holmes mini torquemaster
hitec 5955 servo
and a 4pk radio
I plan on doing the lcc mod sometime soon but I will get a feel for it first and see how it does, I can't wait to get some drive time on this little guy.

Nice!!! I run a GC3 too! also......

cool ttc trophy on the bench "thumbsup"

you will NEED the LCC's !

Thanks man, yeah I know I'll need the lcc mod soon I did a couple sets for some the guys I comp with and they seem to be pleased with them.

Looks really good landon "thumbsup"
I beat it performs just as well....

Thanks man I hope so, we won't have another comp until January so I have plenty of time to get it tweaked in.

Nice work Josh!

Whats the wieght difference between your upper/lowers?

might ought switch your uppers to delrin to, I'm just runnin the gc3's as lowers & stock lowers as uppers...never weighed them... nothin fancy:mrgreen:

been doing some tinkerin lately though...might do some delrin links???

Man there really isn't a big difference at all in weight the only reason I built the lowers was because I didn't have the stock lowers this rig was pieced together and when I needed the stock lowers everyone was out of stock but I do like the delrin better.

And here it is with a body mounted up. I just went simple and clean plain ole black.

Looking good"thumbsup"

What, no red?!?! "thumbsup"

You might want to limit those shocks just a hair (~1/4"). I know most guys run the Duratrax shocks on the GC3 and they are slightly shorter than the Losi shocks. Also, Losi now makes some cartridges that include an o-ring around the base of the threads to keep the oil from leaking....you might want to read through DelMonte's MRC build and find the part number. Mine havent leaked a drop after swapping them in...

Thanks guys, and yeah I was going to ask you about those cartridge Jeremy thanks."thumbsup"

Here you go Josh:

nice looking truck there. iam aslo running the gc3 chassis. 1 question though.

how did you mount that body on there? can you post up a pic of the body mounts with the body off?

i just ordered that body and wanna get an idea of how to mount it

Thanks
CrawlHer

looks good!!!

Heres a pic for you man basically I made my own mounts instead of using the one in the GC3 kit, I used 1/4 delrin and drilled a hole thru it and and tapped it with a 3mm tap. Then I used some old axial body mounts that I trimmed up some and threaded a 3mm set screw thru the white delrin and into the body mount.
