Rock Racer eh, those Fat Rocks won't last long, better off using stock housings. The stock tlt stubs break fast, maybe cvd's? I would not go with aluminum rims either, too much weight if you want to fly, plus they don't have any give.

Tuber looks awesome!!

i know the stock stubs dont last long, and ill upgrade to the stainless Cs, aluminum knuckles, rear straight adapters and CVDs when i can afford all of that shit. we'll see about the wheels, the Wicked Js are pretty light for an aluminum wheel, if theyre too heavy ill get some delrin mayhems for it.


jake, you're on!!

Those wheels look badass on your tuber

FYI - someone is looking for a cooked sidewinder in the wanted section

what motor are you running? I have a tube chassis and some TLT's so I was planning on building something like this either 2.2 or 1.9.

Thanks, you gave me some motivation to build mine!

Ive got an EPIC 27t double in it now. today i tried a 4300kv brushless geared way down, on 3s it broke shit real quick, on 2s it was controllable but couldn't crawl worth a shit. ill stick with a 27t for now maybe try a 19t or something...
