Default Insinerator Tuber Build

Hey,

Nitro racing is done for the season, so its time to break out the Stick and do a Tuber for this year. The stick peformed very good. But even though i made my own stick chassis, it just wasnt what i was looking for since i only crawl by my self. So im gonna set some peformance aside and do a tuber the way i want, since my scorpion tuber was kinda changed by my dad. But for now all i have are specs and a paper mockup.
Specs:

Motors: 55t Lathes
ESC: Super Rooster
Wheels&Tires: Cut and narrowed Stockers
Wheelbase: 18in.
Battery: GP3300 Stick Pack
Self made Adj. motor mounts
Hitec 645s front and rear,
BTA steering on the front



Let me know what you think,
Nate

Can we get a flex shot of the paper mockup?

Seriously, don't stick with the stockers permanently, get some lst claws, and some adapter beadlock rings to fit them to the stock wheels. Nice and cheap. 8-)

I knew there was another rig on here that had that name, but i used it anyways, Since mine will actually do justice to the Sinister part of the name, LOL. Anyways, tube and materials wont be here until friday, so saturday or sunday, expect to see some pics of it being built up.

Im not like you there,
i actually really dont care about crawling that much, its something to keep me busy during the Nitro off season. So, i bet my Hyper 8 crawls better than yours, Cuz my Werks Team Line B7 is a SCREAMER.

Ok all smack talking aside,
i got most of the tuber done yesterday night and this morning.
I got the Middle and rear all welded together and started thinking about the front. Let me know what you all think.
