Like the "hump" on the roof, gotta be easy to recover....

Well done.

[BC-Brian]

Yea, it is Cake to re-right. The windshield acts like a nice "ramp" when you are upside down and find a rock.

Very cool, nice to see a new option out there.

OK so while I was at Rausch Creek for the NECQ I met BC-Brian and I got to see this body.
when I first looked at it I thought it was an xr-10 Hardline body.

When I learned more about it and found out it wasn't the hard line body, I really liked the look of it being really low on the chassis and how the back of the body curves in and keeps it nice and tight.

I saw that he had a heavy gauge and a light gauge one for sale for $25 per body. which for a body that is really nice and will hold up to my driving I will take it. I am running a switch chassis from Chaotic Crawlers and I was running the cab on in. the only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that it was high up and got stuck on stuff when I tried to scoot by it.

So I picked up both body's from him and the heavy gauge is on my 2.2p and the light gauge is going on either the 1.9 or 2.2s.

So I had a comp on the 7th and I had the 2.2p apart to get it ready for the comp. and I cut the body to what I wanted it to look like and I dropped it on and it fit Beautifully over the switch chassis.

I got the body painted the day before the comp and I like the look of it for a quick thing. but with paint it weights .6oz(heavy gauge body) on the scale and I can take more weight out.
when I got the light gauge one cut and on the scale it was .4oz.

Now onto the pictures then the after thoughts.















The 003 on the side stands for the 3rd body he sold I also have 004

So after going to the comp and pulling off a third place...(I comp with TurboFest and Winnerone23)so there is some competition. but the body did exactly what I wanted if not better.
with the switch cab on I would have gotten it hung up in a few places because of how tight the rocks were. other people got stuck were I did not.
when I got upside down at a point the body is so low on my chassis that I could easily get it to slide were I wanted to flip it back over. the body is narrow enough that I didn't have to worry about getting hung up.

My switch chassis is the original delrin version so it could be lighter but going from the cab to the Deringer I lost .6oz off my rig. the cad, cross braces and the panels in total weighted in at 1.2oz and the body at .6oz.

If you are looking for a body and want something light that will roll over better then some body less chassis, is narrower and will protect you shocks as well this is you BODY

Looks Awesome ASW! Glad it helped you ring in third place, and I like that you got the serial number on the side

Nice review ASW27X......awaiting to see the 1.9 rig results.

I didn't get to see it run much, but it seemed to do well, congrats on the 3rd last weekend.

Thanks man.

I cant wait to get on the rocks and really see how it does. But it shows who spent time and painted there body
Now i just need to pull off a 1st
So that means i have to actually go practice

I think this will benefit the 2.2s guys also. Unless I am missing something on the rules? PM sent.

[BC-Brian]

2.2s body spec Did not change in 2013. They must still be 12.5 x 5 x 3"

[asw27x]

i hope to get another run on my rig soon so i can get more pics and do more testing

[Hittman]

What about doing a 2.2s version? I realize the concepts would be a little different, but I think it would be pretty cool.. I know I would buy one

Interesting concept. Would have to get some feedback from people on the design so it isn't just another hardline.

Drop me a line if you want to discuss it.

Looks great Calvin, can't wait to see it at the next GSRCRC comp.

[asw27x]

Some driving pics at a new place I will have a short role over vid soon

Testing my Deringer body by Bc-Brian seeing its roll over capabilities - YouTube

Hard to roll it over with one hand so it will roll over really easily though

Pics look good man.

I may have to show you how to do a roll over though

Just bustin, I am sure it is tough to do while holding the camera.

[asw27x]

Loose gravel and dirt doesn't help and I don't have the strongest motors so I try to stay on the tires

[BC-Brian]
