| RaceAce's Scale Rig
Well i figured it was time for me to build my own scale rig. Back date update It started as 1/2 X 1/2 square steel tubing that i ripped and tig welded together. The axles and tranny are axial units. All the 4 link and panhard bar mounts were made from alluminum. Last edited by raceace; 03-17-2010 at 09:41 PM. |

It's looking real good! Nice work on the scale accessories as well. Have you had the chance to test it yet? How does it perform? |
