| finished her up
Back from Alaska and finished up the black widow 2. tested her out and did some comparision between the light weight comp rig and the tuber . But thats for a later post . It has the usual pede tranny 55 turn lathe stampeed shocks 3/16 steel rod about 6 ft. lrp speed control cheap radio . this is my 3 year olds bashing rig so didnt want to put to much into it .. he can drive very well for his age just training him up right.

| front
Its a little experiment I have the front end held down with a strap (fuel line ) so it still has some flex but wont droop and run a little stiffer in the rear so no tourque twist so far its working great .
