that was ice. 4 wheel steer and ice is fun. I lost the ability to do sweet donuts after i put the 3racing gear reduction hubs on. thanks to the ice, i can still do sweet donuts.

both trucks were close in ability for hill climbing. my brothers truck has a better motor while i have 2:1 at the wheels. they both run close to each other, but my giant imex tires got me a bit higher up the hills. they are horrible for any kind of crawling though.

If i had my Rock Grabbers on, i think i woulda done alot better. Longer wheelbase & lower COG so i dont roll much on the hill climbs by comparison, but the Rock Stompers, well, they kinda suck

Speed-wise, my 35t with 20t pinion was a little faster than his 27t with 20t pinion & portals, but not much. I just geared down to an 18t, and ill bet ya theyre damn near the same speed now.

Another saturday.
me and Low Range, back at it. this time we brought both of our Nylint 1:6 as well.
but mine broke before we began.
we brought 2 buddies with us. so everyone had a vehicle when we started


"WTF stupid nylint"






"c'mon GO you ****er!"



movin on


one of these days i'll install the barrel springs and make the thing flex







king of the hill battle

"don't run my Losi over!"







and the nylint broke



this hill climb was easier with the giant Imex tires







rolled and broke my antenna




whoops

4 wheel steer donuts on ice!







rubbin's racin'

trying to run me down

the clay pile is more forgiving when it's frozen solid







and thats it.
