The chassis is off the hook... Will it be available soon? Patience is not one of my virtues. I love the adjustability. Marvelous work!

Thanks for the compliments guys. 8-) Nluvwithxlr8ing, I figured I'd keep the same paint scheme for the shaftys twins.  EeePee and Mad Scientist, the 2 logos where milled with a ball end mill in the CNC. Unimoger, I will try and get a video together soon. Spoon, very soon, ygpm. LMAO at syco133!! I may have to hold you to that.  Everyone likes twins. |

That looks awesome. I like the custom touches to the chassis. Which 24 series TC wheels are those? I like the narrow wheel look but I thought 24 series wheels were too small.

Good lookin rig . I know the UTRC guys will not let you run anything larger than a 2.2 size rim. I guess you would just have to woop up on the supers.

I've got a set of Mashers on HPI Spike rims, and a set of Moabs on Spike rims, for comps. I just use this tire and wheel combo for bashing. | |

Amazing work man. That thing is art. I love the adjustability of it. I'm also kind of glad you ditched the power wagon. Possibly a working 2-speed basher (56k warning) |

Looks great Bender. Get us some test results on the rims. They look the business.

| Looks great, as usual. But then again, I wouldn't expect anything less. When these are available for sale, will they come with 1-2-3 blocks for posing/mock-up? JK Looks mean!-WRM |
