Three LATE nights and this is where I'm at. New Chassis, New Titanium links all around, New electronics, New shocks (axle mounted), New hex pins and newish hubs. OLDASSAXLES! Still have to clean up the wires, make body panels (duct tape is growing more appealing daily ) and tweak the suspension a bit for more down travel. Practice SHMACTICE! |

| Got it done and it did well!
Got some sweet pics from the NENQ comp courtesy of Jake Kolva! The turnout for Super was small, but none of the super drivers gave a shiat...we had an awesome time scootin the big boys around the rocks! Thanks to all the guys who still make an attempt to keep this amazing class kicking! I still stand by my opinion that it is the most fun and challenging class in RC Crawling! The new chassis with the axle mounted shocks was a nice modification. The RCBROS "egressor" type scx10 shocks with EY designs titanium shafts were butter smooth and precise and didn't even show a sign of puking oil! Very pleased with them on this truck! I may revisit my rear lower links. they came out "ok" but I'm not super happy with the bends I did. All in all, the progress of the Super rig to this point has been a massive improvement and it was great to get it back on the rocks where it is most happy. |

I got mine running for the first time Wednesday. A few tweaks and then squeeze in 100+ hours of practice between now and then and I might not get last in September. | |

How you running your sticks these days? Throttle on one side and steering on the other?

| Re: Turbo-Tech..proto BODILESS Front axle throttle on the left stick. Steering and rear axle throttle on the right stick. Throttle channels are mixed (no expo) the majority of the time on the 2.2. Mix turned off for digs and burns at which point I have individual control over front and rear throttle. |

Thats how I run my 2.2 as well. So for my super I just put the rear steer using the rudder channel.

The panels from Krawler Konceptz came out so KILLER!! I got them all mounted up and took care of a few final tweaks before the big show this weekend. I picked up a BB Brace from BmachineRC for the rear of this thing in an attempt to get some squat. Super cool part! It accomplished exactly what I wanted and brought a bit of flare to the ass end. |
