What will it take for you to stop and just buy a real chassis and run it for a season?

Looks intresting. How does it perform? You gonna make to Apirls comp? How is your G-wagon and your super commin?


You need to stop the madness and finish one of you projects!!!!

I like the Newest set up....Man there is only so many ways to make a Plate TLT chassis. No matter what anyone does it will look like something that has already been done. It comes down to how it's set up to have it crawl good.
