Re: Wheelbyte's Twin Hammers Love the VW body on the Hammers. I'm torn about which of my trucks to spend my $ on. I have both a Yeti and a TH. Seeing builds like yours makes it even tougher to choose. |

Re: Wheelbyte's Twin Hammers Wow...I absolutely love how your machine is turning out. One of my favourites! |
Re: Wheelbyte's Twin Hammers This is the best Baja I have seen and I am always looking. It so dam pretty it would be tough to use it, I would use it :), but it would be tough. |
Re: Wheelbyte's Twin Hammers Quote:
Thanks!! Yeah Im gonna use it too...... planning to hit up the G6 that RPP is sponsoring in Oct. Its gonna be tough that first time out when it goes flipping down a 15ft embankment but it would be a shame to just have it sit on the shelf. Thats what pictures are for......HaHa P.S thoses orig cryo/polished axels are still going strong!!! |

Re: Wheelbyte's Twin Hammers Made it out to the RPP Hobby RC Jamboree and G6. It was a good time! Fridays events were held at RPP where they have a killer little scale course and a bunch of vendors set up.. Saturdays G6 was held at Lake Mendocino. Course consisted of 80+ gates and we ran two laps for a total of 160+ gates. Second time around thru the water it was pretty rutted out and I flooded my pan chassis and fried my MMP.... even know I had dipped it in CorrosionX. Oh well :( Ordered up a new Holmes Hobbies BLE that is waterproofed and got it installed. Here are some photos.....
