Chassis 2

Click the image to open in full size.

We are looking for 2 testers for these two Dune Buggy chassis.

In order to paticipate, you must be a registered star RCC member.

Will will only give away the chassis, you still have to purchase the transmission, susepnsion arms, shocks, wheels and tires from Traxxas (we will provide you a list of what you need)

We are looking for somebody who had some past experience with Dune Buggy. Best if you can post some pics of what you had before.

We will pick those 2 winners by 3/21/08 Friday.

I like Chassis #2...
I have built a 1:1 sand buggy before (frame up) and LOTS of r/c buggies and trucks to play in the sand when I lived near the beach! I also have a complete rustler/stampede with TONS of aluminum hop ups I can donate for this project!
20 years of R/C experience... IM READY
I have a friend who's a production manager for Extreme Performance so I think I will have plenty of resources...
Thanks for the chance Hua/RC4WD!!!!

Holy crap chassis #2 is sweet, chassis #1 isn't as much of my style personally, but it's still sweet though.

I have many years experience with stampedes and rustlers, I have both. Currently I'm running a upgraded rustler with a mamba max 5700 system running on 3 cell a123's and 3 cell Milwaukee E-Moli packs (12 volts) with VXL running gear. No pics though cause we are always having way to much to stop and take them. I also have a sand rail chassis sitting here that I made and haven't ran yet (similar to the Sand Kings style). I would love to try out chassis #2 and if not buy one when they come out.

Ive got an original electric Rustler that ive been looking to re build and this would be awesome. Ive been driving it for almost 3 years now. #2 is the best looking imo, but the first one looks cool too. Thanks for the chance.

I have a rustler just waiting to be a donor. I already have a set of paddles for the rear and razor front tires. I would also run my brushless system in the chassis. I have some seats and interior parts to make it look more scale. As far as previous experience, I have built VW's for over 20 years and have had plenty exprience with sand rails. I would love to build one of your tester chassis. Plenty of sand/dirt around here.

I would prefer chassis #1 but either one would be fine. thanks
