My Super. It's not quite done, I want to stretch the w.b. back out to 18", which will also bring ride height back down to an acceptable level. I didn't relocate the lower mounting point of the shocks when I shortened it up, so the ride height suffered. Anyway, here's the specs: TCS NN chassis RC4WD Raptor axles (yeah, i know...) Integy 65t lathes w/11t front pinion, 10t rear 5955 front servo 645 rear Axial 40 series beadlocks Moab 40's 11.1v 2100mah lipo 1100 nimh rx pack Airtronics VG6000 twin stick Integy piggyback shocks |

I'm not sure yet, I only did it because I had the rx pack and plenty of space, and I didn't have a cc bec...I've only run it for about 20-30 minutes in this config, not enough to really push either of the batteries

good job clearing that "spotted dick" you have there. If you can clear up spotted dick you should be able to tackle anything. How do you like those axles so far? I am new to the scene and noticed your comment about them in your build details. What do you mean by this. I was looking at those axles, are they considered a step up from the clods? Thanks for the help. Your rig looks real good man! Quote:

If you read the can, it appears to be some strange alternative lifestyle pudding? Not sure never seen this "stuff" before.

Yeah, it's a sponge pudding, not a sexual disease. Just thought i'd clear that up.. Nice rig too, always been a fan of the NN, although it seems to get used less now.. |

You guys kill me. Might as well be doing the Bevis & Butthead uhhhh uhhh, Yeah Yeah - he said Dick.... Spotted dick is a traditional English steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit (usually currants), commonly served with either custard or butter and brown sugar. Spotted refers to the dried fruit (which resemble spots) and Dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough.[1] It is possibly conjugated originally from sticky pudding to dicky pudding to dicky to dick and finally spotted dick as in pudding with raisins.[ SO THERE!!!!!! |

[quote=rambuller84;1090808]So.... you've trainwrecked your own thread with this spotted dick.. NICE! So, wtf is it?[/quote] One could see it as an "Intimidating Scare Tactic" at a Comp. Honestly who would carry a can of Spotted Dick with them(unless it's snack time). Great job on the truck . I tried a 16" WB Super, and then stretched it out to 17.5 and it's a whole new rig to drive. |
