I would suggest a servo horn that gives more throw rather than a short servo horn and a really short steering arm. As you know, you took away a lot of strength not only from the servo but also the arm.

I hope that the EPA's are not the only steering stop youre running?

Alittle up date from the last comp, I was able to pull out the win

Course 1
was a fun course tricky but very doable other than the bonus, gave it a try and lucky enough it didn't cost me anything

Course 2
was another tricky course with some super fun lines, I opted not to try the bonus this course as I didn't see a reward at the end only trouble lol
I did give the bonus a try after we were done that course, YES I pulled it but took me a 1:45 to do it and everyone who did try it during there run fell off and ended up in the bush taking a touch repair.

Course 3
Was a fun course not to tough other than the bonus, which I just could get grrrr

Course 4
I made a dumb driver error which cost me a gate, but it happens.

Super happy with how the day went and how I finished.
We have are next comp this weekend, With Kev and his crew from Calgary attending are next comp.

I would like to thank my killer sponsor DravTech, OTTSIX and GOGO Hobbies

cool to see the pin tires working. A bunch of us ran them years ago at IOCO for the LMRCC events with not so great results.

the rig looks good too.

Good Morning Everyone,

Been awhile since I have posted on here, Truck has been working great the driver on the other hand has been alittle off at the last couple comps, I finished 2nd at 2 comps and 3rd at the other.
I Need to buckle down and get practicing again, so I'm on top of my game for Worlds and to hopefully win our Season series.
Can't thank my sponsor enough for there killer products. DravTech, Ottsix, GOGO Hobbies.

[chevotafun]

Well the prep for Worlds has started.

Got the new version of the Sudu Pro, which is what ever one will get when they order one. The only difference is we made the part of the chassis shorter behind the rear shock so not to get caught on anything. Also removed the bottom hole for the rear upper link on the chassis side, which helps not drag the chassis when squeezing through a tight spot.
Got the new version of the skid plate as well. Much better IMO with a new beefy brace down the centre now, also we made the rear upper bracing a bit thicker. All in all I like all the changes, it seems to make the chassis a bit stiffer in a good way IMO.
I will post up some pictures in the next day or so, showing the difference between the 2.

Got the chassis all swapped over last night, Still need to rebuild the shocks and once my new RC4WD knuckle and c-hub show up I will be switching to DravtecH's new Knuckle weight design, and the rims you need to run that system, which is very close to Eric's design which DravTecH was allowed by Eric to make.

Probably going to go back my hi-tech servo as well, just can't get enough throw from the holmes one.

Hey Mike.. You also have the new one. Lol. Yeah it looks even better then our prototype..
Especially the beefing up...
The weight holders are so nice... And can fit up to around 105g a side.

Yes I have the new weight system, just waiting for the slugs to arrive before switching over.
Now to figure out how to put these new rims together lol

[chevotafun]

We had our last outdoor comp of the year yesterday, and the SuDu 3D is working awesome.

I Managed to pull out the win and with doing so I took the overall series win as well.

I would like to thank my killer Sponsors who help make this possible-
-DravTech
-Ottsix
-GoGo Hobbies
You guys rock and thank you for all you do for me.

So not much to do on the Pro truck before I leave next week for Worlds, other that do a once over to make sure everything is tight and good to go.

One big change I made to my Pro truck was I finally got my BROOD NEXUS motors back and I'm happy to say they seem to work very well now after Eddie fixed them up, Thanxs Eddie.
I ran them at yesterdays comp just to make sure they were good to go and I can say that they are nice and smooth with no stalling issue's anymore.

Now to get myself prepared for Worlds, Can't waite
