Talking ***thunderhorse***

i just got my new 2.2 comp rig from www.jwcustomwurksrc.com and it blew me away when i opened the box. this chassis is super light but strong as hell because of its derlin construction. i like all the link mounting and shock placement options pre-drilled from the factory. it gives a lot of set up options. i got mine in a 60/40 link configuration with high clearance derlin links. here are a few pics i took when i took it out of the box. (thanks for the fast shipping)

i still have it I'm going to try the THUNDERHOURSE out for a while. i like the bmvii but i miss the flex of shock equiped rig's on some of the rougher courses we have. the tighter ones the bmvii is great. we'll see what happens I'm building my wife a pimp slap for the smaller courses.

just got done with most of the this rig today and I'm very very pleased. when i put the tires on and saw the ground clearance i was amazed. this thing looks like a mini super! the cog is top notch! i can lay it on its side and it will not fall over. i just need to finish up a few things like mounting the body. i have different shock springs on order and I'm going to play with the mount locations a little. these pics don't do this thing justice!

Sweet Holy Crap on a Monkey that looks great. What are those blue washers you are using, can you post a link? My Thunderhorse should come today, unless UPS has pooched my delivery... again. I "May Not Post Attachments" though, so I can't post pics. I could start spaming like mad, but I hate that.
