Now for the new year, I plan to run sportsman with it, but with upgrades. I got the DNA CFX chassis from Jeremy (THANKS!) and plan to use it with the creeper and an axial tranny. Maybe later in the year buy a dig for it to go pro comp. I have a roller, minus revo shocks I have on oreder, at this point tonight, but I'm waiting till the morning to get pics in the sunlight. Went together super easy, the lowers fit with creeper axles and make a 12.5 in wb at a 3in GC. The batterys in the lower corner are what I plan to run. I'm going to figure out an eletronics placement tonight. Heres a teaser pic to hold you over till the AM. ;D

Well I got her togethere! She's an RTR! Only thing I need the revo shocks I have being shipped. The only mod I'm looking at is making a front axle plate to move the battery onto the front axle. Its highest point on the truck now. Possibly a split pack like they did on axials, but I have to shave off the shock mounts. Onto the pics.

Well got my shocks, traxxas GTR's, and they are nice! Perfect length for the 3in GC I set up. Got some yellow jatos on order along with a set of orange. Also picked a body for it. A JConcepts rock stedy is going to be the lid that will be slamed as far down as I can get it. Pics which are small get them glasses:


First rig to do this with battery in!

Got jato springs and a body. I messed up the mounting holes actualy. The body was supposed to be rideing "nose high", but when marking body mount holes, I had the truck reversed...

Very interesting Not sure that I like the white rims though, but that has no affect on performance Not many people run the cougars anymore, is there any particular reason, why you still run them? I am not saying they are bad, because I have never ran them I am just wondering. The Carbon Fiber chassis looks great, really sets the rig off. Also don't worry about people not posting, you get that.

The reason I run cougers is that they still are a top preforming tire. Everyone went away from them but they still have the most podiums. Plus I got these from a team driver, and these are not regular red dot cougers, these are white dot. Much softer than a rover or any tire I've felt so far. I've always been a fan of them. Some things these do better than rovers some things rovers do better. At one of our location I will probaly go back to rovers since they work awsome there.

On the wheels, you'll like the white with the new body it flows. Thanks for the comments man!
