Thanks. Still working on the details. I have 13 days before an event I'll run this rig in.

Could you get some pics of how the lights are outside in the dark. Curious what the lighted area would be like. Thanks.

Will do. I have 7 days to build up/finish up two rigs and this is one of them.

I saw Chicky Barton's rig running at the KOH today and it kinda reminded of my TH.

I had to pull the Holmes motor out of this rig the night before the G6 to put in my 2.2 wraith. I swapped in the stock 15 turn HPI motor. It worked good all day on stock gearing.
The two rear silver scaler Shocks must have been scared of the beating they were going to get and locked up on the truck ride up to the event. I pulled them off and just ran the kings out back. To my surprise the rig still handled great at full speed. I am running front and rear sway bars. Also, the rear die-cast Motor is 6oz so that helps the shocks work.
What I surprised even more about was how this 7.5lbs pig crawled on the trail and the rocks. I ran three 2200mah3s packs through it after the event.


Pulling the ARCC sled I built.

Not my rig pulling the sled in the picture but a picture of the sled.

Thanks man, this rig really surprised me. Now if I can find some from CVD's that will hold up. I noticed I broke one yesterday after I put the rig up.

Thank you. Truly a nice handling and fun rig to drive.

Tear down begins.

Interior of chassis is pretty clean.










Only damage for 6600mah worth of 3s electrons was a sheared hex pin.

Nice rig....

I hate to point this out but... um....
you've got a little spec of mud on your rig.

Thanks. It looks pretty good but man does it work on the rocks and even better at high speeds. The rear six oz LS1 motor really helps the ass end soak up the bumps. Running light shock fluid with front and rear sway bars with great results.

It's all cleaned and wired back up. Just need to put the panels back on. Sticking with rear single King Shocks for now, as they work good. If i put the scale shocks back on the rear lowers, they will be just for looks as the Kings do a good job at damping.

Truck looks killer bro!
Hope I can see it at the next G6.

Try a Wild Willy's driver in it?

I was wondering when you were going to chime in. You tabbed up the main chassis lines, correct?

I will be up at the STL G6. I'm too lazy to swap out drivers, that would involve work.

I did it all but the spair tire carrier.

Hoping to make the STL one but not sure yet. No mud please lol

I fabbed up the spare tire mount, panel mounts and a few other minor braces here and there. Chassis was really well built to begin with. The rig sits around 7.25oz RTR and it almost feels perfect on the rocks, trails and high speeds. It does well for a tub style lower chassis setup.

How are you liking the HH servo?

Working just fine. Ran it for two 2200mah back to back packs on the G6 trail after everyone left. No issues to report and turn the wheels with authority. Like I mentioned, this piglet is 7.25lbs.
