| Can't wait to see it this weekend! I've still got to do steering and electronics on my 2.2" before Saturday. Wouldn't be a problem if I had the parts! Tower screwed me this time! :-(

Driving it around the basement...this thing just begs to be beat on! I see why you drive it the way you do. I'm thinging I may want to try brushed on this one. This will be the first time I have hit the rocks with I truck I've never tested before. Hope I got all the bolts tight. |

Finished 8th at the first comp. Not exactly what I was hoping for but... thats what I get for waiting so long to get it ready. No pratice and kinda thrown together. I definetly have to relearn how to drive this truck and build some better upper links. I snapped a link on the finals course. Think about going brushed too. Had the front end bound up in a rock and the quark would shut off..i guess from too much of a load. Oh well I finished 8th last year at our first comp so I have a while to improve. |

Yea, that rig's just gonna take a little time to get used to. It's got alot of different charicteristics. So you'll have to take different lines like Jeff said. Once you get that figured out, It'll be Game On! |
