Default My BWD Proto Wicked Cricket

So I've had this for about a month now. I got it from Norm (Team3Six) Thanks!

So here is a quick rundown of the parts it has....

~Hot racing Wide wheel Hex's
~Hot racing Diff spools lockers
~Hot racing Knuckles
~Hot racing Chubs
~Hot racing Lockouts
~Hot racing metal case
~Hot racing aluminium center gears
~Hot racing Center lock spool
~MiP Drive shafts
~BWD Motor mount
~BWD Servo Mount/Battery Guard
~BWD Bomb Proof Shock/Link Mounts
~RCBros Zero Ackerman Knuckles and steering link
~VP Servo Armor
~VP LH Procomps
~HB 1.9 Rovers
~Novak Mongoose Three80 18.5 system
~Turnigy MG959
~Futaba 4PL
~Thunder Power 325mah 2s 45c

I'm running the shocks in droop, and it's performing great like that! I've put about 12-20 packs through it. This lil guy performance is Amazing! I love the clearence it has in the back. It is performing better than my bro's Mini Low-Pro Flex has never been a problem for me yet. When I first got it I loaded 6 slugs in each wheel just to break it in but right now I'm running it with 4 in each front and none in the back. I just put 2 in each back so I'll need to run it like that and see how I like it. After a few days of driving it, it rolled off a little ledge and fell like 6 in. It broke the cab though. So I contacted Don from BWD and he made me one a new one that is a little bit thicker so I just got that mounted today. It looks better than the first one and I don't think I will be breaking it any time soon. Thanks For awesome customer Service Don

And Pics of how it sits . I have some pics of it on the rocks but I need to find them. I'm going to get a vid sometime but I won't promise when because I'm really busy right now.










The weight is really good right now IMO heavy enough to stick well to the rocks but not to heavy to stay stuck when it gets in a bind.

You realize you are going to have to get some of Don's new wheels on this to really be captain kickbutt.

Your rig is a lot wider in the rear than the front. Has it given you any issues with gate clearance?
