| Mega Mud Trail truck
I started seeing all the cool builds and couldn't help myself so I had to build one. I saw a guy talking about 3D printing some wheels so after a short talk with him and a week later I had these in 2.8x1.5. Modeled after these. At first I tried them on my Bomber. I liked the tire and wheel combo and hated the truck for what I like doing. So I traded the Bomber roller for roller for a upgraded kit version Wraith. Slapped the wheels on it and installed my Velinion in it. I knew I wanted it LOW (which was 50% of the reason I hated the Bomber.) so I bolted on some drop brackets and slammed it along with modding the Spawn body to fit. So far I'm pretty happy with it. It handles really well and jumps nice and flat. |

Thanks! I wasn't sure of a plan when I had them made and it was either black or gray if I wanted them soon or wait who knows how long and get a different color. I also had some huge negative offset Clod wheels made in black for a Wraith based Monster truck that I'll be building this summer. One of the cool features of the 3D printing material is that it seems really slick. Any kind of mud and gunk just slides right off of it. |

I got a big discount to test the prototypes. From what he said his work has picked up a lot and he didn't have time to do anything right now.

Those rims are sick. I would love a set of 1.9 for my 6x6 if they make them. The rig looks good I love the lower stance. What motor you running?

| Re: Mega Mud Trail truck Currently it has a Velinion system in it running on 3S. I'll probably pull it in favor of a MMP and some other motor this summer.
