You should make a one link/panharder TLT.

That's a dare.

Well, at least it's more legal.

Looks good Cole, pretty much bare minimum. Sort of looks like a sprint car chassis.

That isn't a tuber though, where is the tube?

Looks like I'll need to drill out all the rod to make it tube. That will be fun drilling out the 1/8"

Awww, c'mon. Just cause it's constructed of solid rod, it's suddenly not a tube chassis??? C'mon guys, this is getting re-diculous.

A real 1:1 chassis is not going to be solid rod for obvious reasons, but applying that to a scale chassis is just plain nit-picky.

That's looking good Cole. Are you exactly duplicating the diamond-plate set up?

Mnster is friend of mine he was joking around.

It's basically the same as the dimond one. The shocks are slighty more upright and the length is shorter. All the link geometry will be very close.

Put a stealth (or similar) in it. You'll have more than enough room.

I hate when that happens.

Everything you need to know I think.

People complain because we have to make the rules so complicated. I going to forward all my hate mail and threats to you.

Looks cool, caint wait to see if the rules do what we intended. If anyone can test them it's you.

Thanks the r2 will just fit in there with about 1mm on each side before the radius of the bend starts.

Am I making your job hard or what. Just link them to my build threads and tell them this is why

I'll take the last comment as a compliment.
