Talking Vertical Smile - WA comp crusher

Well as of right now I'm just starting my comp 2.2 rig for February and all I have is stuff on it's way in.

so I thought I'd start the tech on it.

VS chassis - Only the best out there.
Moabs.
Unimogs beadlocks.
top secret tranny - the Feb 10th comp will be it's testing ground
some shocks off ebay with resevors nothing special just MGT's(8 for $15 shipped)
TLT axles. (from frankyrizzo(thanks)
I'll pick up 2 (two) 65t lathes from 4 seasons.
I was wanting 2 of the V-10 crawler motors to try out, but couldn't find any instock.
MOPED esc
and as to keep it cheap a TQ3.
I may order some knuckles off r2j.

The VS color will be a surprise as I asked the coater to find something cool and different. I don't even know yet.

I need to order a battery pack from cheapbatterypacks.com

That should about cover everything.

I hope I'll get everything here by Thursday or Friday so I can start putting it togeather.





yeah I know, "this thread is usless without pics" but they will come.

Not this one. This is a top secret tranny that me and another person have been going back and forth on. He's done all of the work I've just bugged him about it.

The stealth I received from you went in my trail beater.

Nice!

Glad you're going to hit the Comp scene!!!
Only good things can come out of it.


If the maker of your tranny is from my state, ...I know who it is.

Run a 35t and a 55t, and make it so you can switch motors.

This is what I'll be running at the comp on February 10th. I'm just not sure if I'll be able to stay for the trail run after because it's my aniversary.
