That is one of the ugliest TH Ive seen and i love it. Got a Mad Max feel to it and I'm talking old Mad Max. Good job. I love the Twin Hammers cause you can beat the shit out of it and it keeps goin.

I dig it. Reminds me of my neighbors parts bin SCX10/Hammers hybrid. Nothing bought, just used what he had on hand or could make. On another note, where do you live to be getting that much snow already? |

I really want to throw a scx10 front axle under under it, has anyone attempted this mod? Haha and sitting here just now I held the lower half of a wraith cage up to it, now I might trim the back off of the TH a little more Team 420 racing commander |

Your front shocks you need a stiffer spring. See how your a arms droop. But over all nice junk yard build.

I don't mean to sound negative, but matching rims is kinda a necessity here. First, different tires will have different circumferences and so it will create tension within your driveline as you have it set up. I like junkyard looks, but see if you can find matching wheels and tires. It will look better but will also perform much better. Keep us posted with pics!

I realize that having two different size tire effect the ratios and what not, traction was about zero about 9in of mashed potato snow. I drove it last night and toward the end of my run my car randomly shut off but the esc was flashing red I reset and reverse didn't work and my motor took a shit shortly after.
