I sent paypal for your superjuice chassis earlier tonight. Any chance on getting the 2010 prototype superjuice? Either one is going to be sweet. Great Build. |

i was tired of breaking my wheels and gluing my tires to them, so with no available beadlocks in the configuration i wanted it was time to get to work. i will not be producing these but i will be running enough sets to help with bringing down the cost. here is first wheel pulled out. 3.2 bead 1" wide 14mm hex zero offset 2.1oz without rings | |

well i have been busy. finally got all the wheels done and i have been working on the car like a mad man trying to get her dialed. first up 3.2" beadlocks the Y-Town 329's i finally got around to making my stainless lower links with some tig'ed brackets you might notice the carbon fiber uppers as well been working with my shocks, springs, oil, and angles to get her where i think she is performing very well. i will get some more pics and some video here shortly |

Rig just keeps getting better! Why did you go to stainless over delrin? I've been trying to decide on mine, delrin, stainless, or titanium? I run titanium lowers and carbon fiber uppers on my berg2.2 and been happy. |

the biggest links i could run were 3/8" delrin which was not all that strong for the length of them and then they were drilled and tapped for the shock mounts. i actually broke one during a fall i had and my car paid the consequence i never broke one during driving but they always were on the back of my mind with the smaller stainless links i can now fit my hand wounds in the car and that with the 10 tooth pinions has given me some fierce drag brake i was lacking before. also with the jump to a larger 4 cell this car is getting to where i feel very comfortable driving it. @7.5 lbs ready to run with a huge 4 cell. and just for the record no broken gears yet | |

Makes me happy to hear about your gears holding up. Love the links, looks beefy and slim at the same time. And good name on the wheels, fits them well. |
