Nice truck and vid, looks like a ghost jeep with no driver.

CHRIZAD · 08-17-2009, 03:01 PM

great looking rig. it looks like the same issues Im having with my mrc based flatty. cant seem to get enough weight down low to get any really good traction. love the look though. its fun anyway. haha.

I dont think his traction problem is from weight . I owned a set of those tires for a while and had them on 2 different rigs and they didnt perform good on either. I think the tread blocks are not space far enough apart and it causes them to all fold together making one big flat surface. But their one of the coolest looking tires and the size fits that jeep perfectly!
And as for the jeep itself you did an amazing job and you should be very proud..

Its more scale looking when 1.9's do not have traction

.

Awesome vids.

that turned out great looking. Just add a few little details and your on you way. Off Road Decals, Spare Tire, Shovel, Winch, etc.

thanks very much for all the compliments. i wish i could produce some better vids for you all
as far as the traction thing goes, rcjeepbuilder is pretty much right. plus the dirt that i was on is very loose and crumbly.

and fernando, ive just started to get into the little details that should really set this apart. check out my build thread if you haven't seen it
