|  First Crawler Build T-maxx Moonbuggy tuber (spanky Campbell ent.)
Yes i said it This is my first crawler that i am building and i have chosen to follow a moon buggy type frame design and i will be using a torn apart t-maxx for parts i am making custom straight axles out of 3/4 inch stainless tubing the housing will be offset due to the moon buggy style . i am not sure what kind of servos/motor/esc (Electronics) i will be using but i want it to be really light so i wanted to go with mambas brushless stuff... please bear with me for how long this build is going to take because i am 15 and dont really have to much experience with rc crawlers i but i have read close to every thread on rccrawler and am very familiar with rock crawling and rc cars....

The only limit to copmete in the super class would be either to have a body or full panels. That is your only limit when it comes to supers. Check out the sticky at the top of the compitition thread to find all the specs and limits for all classes. But thats only if you would want to compete. Sounds like it will be an awesome build.
