|  Reverse Cowgirl w/ more pics
Here she is, "Reverse Cowgirl" After many different chassis designs over the last year I decided to try something a little different. This design allows me to run a higher GC without sacrificing my COG. Torque twist is minimized and it seems to work really well. Took 1st place at the last WARCRC comp. Action pics along with a video of the last comp can be seen at nw-wheelers.com under the WARCRC section june 10th comp pics and vids. On to the specs. TLT axles Nitro pede trans Maxx drivelines Gmade wideners Rear axle mounted 55t GD600 at 3.8:1 M2k on double narrowed HPI monster wheels 13” WB cinched down in the front 3.6” GC      Last edited by DUIdirk; 07-12-2006 at 09:32 PM. |

Do you have a spur/pinion in front of the GD600 or is the GD600 itself the spur/pinion?

Badazz set up Adam. It was cool how different it performed on the same courses and lines as the other TLT's. I'd say you got very minimal torque twist if any. Look forward to seeing you/rig at the next comp. Maybe Toom will give you a run for your money. He was in a zone last week till he FUBARed his servo.

The GD600 is the spur/pinion. I have another gearbox on order that will allow lower gearing, but I am really liking the way it is now. Thanks SMR4RUNNER. Are you going to goldendale this year? Im about done with my clod so I can compete with the big boys. Last edited by DUIdirk; 06-17-2006 at 06:44 PM. |

 Yea! We all didn't notice it till his rig reached the rocks above us. Thats when we all **** bricks. Definitely a well thought out design and in my opinion out performed at last weeks comp.

I don't think my rbx chassis can compete with you.

Im pretty sure there is going to be another rear axle mount TLT by another WARCRC member before goldendale. Im interested to see how that ones turns out as well! Redrockcrawler, shoot me a PM and lets go crawl. There is a pretty good place right up the street from my house with many many difficult lines. Im still working on that picture, as I dont have any good batteries in my cammera at this time. Ill pick some up today. |

Ok, some of you wanted pics of the rear mounted motor. I added front dig so I decided it was about time to post up. Cut the body up more, went for more of a buggy look. Front dig works well, really fun to play with. Here are some pics.     Last edited by DUIdirk; 07-12-2006 at 09:24 PM. |
