|  Finally made it over to the Darkside
After saying I'd never drive a stupid clod as a comp rig; I finally made it over to the Darkside. I've owned clods before but never built one as my primary comp rig. Area 51 chassis Quark 33, Original Revolver, Hitec 5995 x 2 DX-6 RC4WD metal gears TTR CVDs, and BTA steering Here are some pics from our 1st SERCRC comp this year. Now I just have to learn how to drive this thing. Last edited by RXcrawler; 09-11-2007 at 05:09 PM. |

Custom chassis and links. Yeah it's got a Hemi! I have different digs and mixes set up on the DX-6, that radio can do everything. Here are some naked pics. Last edited by RXcrawler; 09-11-2007 at 05:10 PM. |

The color is actually a transparent red backed with silver then black. It has a copper look to it especially in those pics. I had thought about doing it copper I was pleased when it came out having that tint to it. | |

I kind of like that chassis design. Looks to have Low CG and good clearance.Thats one of the coolest chassis set ups I have seen for some time. Even with the Catvl. set up.

looks good joey. wish i could have seen it in action once you got it dialed in. It looks like you just took heavy's old body and put it on yours and made heavy go get a new one  Quote:
 See you at the next comp | |

It worked alot better than the day you saw it move for the first time. I lowered it and that got rid of the "inch worm" effect that it had. | |

That's a great looking rig Joey. It kicked *** this weekend, take the clearance of a stick with the geometry of a good 4-link and it rocks. It's to bad Heavy will only build three of them... |
