Jake , Al's right its doesnt have a ladder chassis so its not legal.

2.4 - 1.9 & 2.2 Scale Classes - Modeled after typical street legal off-road vehicles
• 2.4.1 - Chassis must be OEM stock or custom ladder style that must extend over the axles. OEM suspension may be modified in any way. Construction material is not restricted.

But if you want to give it a try I dont see why you can't.

You may want to reread your post.
(2.4.1 - Chassis must be OEM stock or custom ladder) That thing will be awesome we should add jumps and a back strait away.

The most important thing is it that is a ladder chassis. An OEM Chassis would be like The CR-01 or Like Al's Yota or my Reign K2-3S. Garys's and your's would be a custom ladder chassis.

Now you see why scale class is not recognised, to much bullshit to contend with. Could you see this stuff going on at a National level, I don't want no part of it.

We should have a bonus run where we see who can drag the Yota to the finish line. J/K Al. The Yota is the whip.

The chassis doenst fit into the scaler rules. So as far as the point deductions we can't give them to Jake, but if he wants to try it I dont see why not.

I would welcome another truck. Besides if he locks the rear diff it may do well.

Do the rules end up ruling out XCs, CC-01s for their tub chassis?
