|  Scatterbrains 2011 Turbo Tech Super Bully build
2011 brings in a new era of super class, i needed to step up my game (ok just wanted to build a new rig  )Chassis is from Turbo Tech by Turbofest, Links, skid, sideplates, and SS 4mm grub screws were included. The fit and finish and quality is fantastic, It assembled well and is very well thought out. I highly recommend this chassis on those reasons alone.  SPECS: Turbo Tech Customs chassis kit Turbo Tech Customs steering kit (not pictured) 65:1 super bullies gearboxes with standard tubes and knuckles MThead rear bully dual servo plate BROOD 45t motors 2 futaba s9157 servos (rear steering) Hitec TH7980 servo (front steering) Futaba 4pk Castle dual BEC unit Castle BEC Tekin FXR esc x2 Custom built sedona trencher 8"tall tires  Svens bully weight setup (won at nats 2010) thanks Sven On to the pics Axles  Rubber before the cut  First cuts     Final tire 8" static height   This is how the chassis shows up  Great finish and awesome engraving!  Links finished  Chassis ready to go  Semi roller time   Rear axle  front axle  Mock up with body and tires  GC Love the way this looks!!!  Stay tuned Updates to follow.............. |

Pretty sure he got xld's from a local member and then decided he wanted to go full width...he got tubes and xvd's and just used the xld upper mount...notice that the upper links are offset to one side rather than straddling the upper link mount |

Pretty soon there will need to be super super class , those tires are huge, is the wheel base 18"? That thing look cool, the tires especially. I would love to see an RC crawler class bigger than supers, super are the coolest.
