Default #3 SC8 body

Other two bodys are toast.


Check out the new silver cage.




New air intake and new Switch tires on the stock sc8 rims

That looks awesome with the long slug set up. I'd love to run a half dirt half asphalt race with something like that. Your air ram looks cool as well. I'll have to make something similar if I get round to building an SC8E.

Handle's bad ass on the track we run, but the track does not have a bunch of hoops. Sticks to the ground like glue. Right now its set up for more droop

What size are the hexes on the SC8?? Thoose wheels would look cool on a SC10, might be a bit heavy though?

Hexes are 17mm. New Era now makes adapters for the SC10. I was thinking about putting my SC8 wheels on the '10 but I was also concerned about weight. Haven't compared the weight between the two yet.

The thin fake beadlock ring and screws are the only added weight.

Me too.....I was a little disappointed. Looks great but a black 3 paint job would be even cooler!

Default Sc8

First off very nice rig. One thing that would help with smooth airflow into the engine is change the air intake tube to a smooth one. The one that is on it causes turbulence from the ridges in the pipe. I did the same thing when I made a grille mounted ram air set up once and when I changed to a smooth tube I noticed a difference. It did run better after that. Just a suggestion. Bob.
