catpwred goes torsion, well at least halfway

[catpwred]

ok folks one of these days i'll leave my rig alone but i love to build and tinker and get things to work. so with that being said not many ppl run the jp custom's havoc chassis in my neck of the woods not sure why maybe cause it's on the newer side or cause it's a sprung torsion setup and they haven't drivin it.so after talkin to run2jeepin about the chassis and askin him some ?'s and what it's like to drive i decided to get 1. i was just about order it from jp custom's and remembered that one of the guys i crawl with pretty often buy's and try's thing's as much as i do so i asked him if he happened to have one of these chassis's and wouldn't u know he did he got it in a trade and never ran it. so i picked it up from him for a screamin deal so now it's time for spec's.
jp custom's havoc chassis
traxxas 112mm revo push rods upper links
simple bent lower links, for now gettin lower dogleg links when they come avail
bully cast axle up frnt, light weight rear
twin fxr's and 35's
slw's ver 3 1in 725 hub's black on black
blue dot rover's with 3oz's in each front
hobbico steering servo with bec
axial scaler shocks in the rear, shortest shock i have at the moment
futaba 6ex
i have pic's tryin to upload but have issues with the camra at moment so i'll post them in a bit. i will say this was by far the easiest chassis i've built to date every thing fits with relitive ease. i'll be drivein the rig tommrrow since we have 2 comps this weekend.
so if u've made it this far thanks for readin it and tell me what u think

drove my rig tonite at the lhs comp and it did really well, walked some lines i had trouble with before. and it seems to climb really well front end bites and walks right up. one thing i didn't try but want to is changin direction goin up hill with diggin and see how it handles it. but so far i like it if i drive it this weekend like i drove it tonite i've found my final setup. lol probely not but it'll take me a while to change it. thanks jp customs for doin u hmwrk and makin some thats easy to setup and have it work
