 That's gotta be a first...I like the "racing suspension" and the "tough four gear planetary bevel gear diffs"... Slipper clutch wouldn't be a bad idea tho... | |

Im at a loss when someone asks if someone else has seen something that no one has seen. Speedy these dont have Planetary diffs,,theres no Sun gear. Aaron,,,the Safari is a Creeper with a ladder chassis bolted on top,,just like the pictures show. It will will be very top heavy and will require the same mods as every other Creeper.

the only good thing in the safari is that it comes with the dig.

Flip the transmission around so you can switch from 2wd and 4wd. May get more discussion if posted in the general scale section.

This thread needs to be moved to the scale section,,,if someone had seen the Safari or handled one you would have received a different answer....but...seeing as how when I did a search in the Venom forums and found no result for "Venom Safari" or "Safari" as pertaining to the rig itself...Id say no one in here has seen one. One of two results from searching the General Scale Section,,,elapsed time 30 seconds, just saying. Venom Safari Creeper..hmmmmm |

| yep, did a search before hand so it wouldn't be a duplicate. being that this is the "venom" section that's where the post went.

But this is the Creeper section,,the Creeper is a Comp Crawler..not a scaler. Thats why the COMP and SCALE sections are seperate.

Dont get me wrong man,,Im not trying to argue,,Im just pointing out the differences,,Most of the guys in here are building Creepers for comp'ing or bashing. There isnt anyway you could set up the Safari to even come close to keeping up with a Creeper thats built. Thats why the scale rigs are forumed seperate plus the detail work that goes into the scalers sets them totally apart from comp'ers. |
