Nice video. One side or the other of the front axle was lifting off the ground a lot it seemed. Maybe an upper link placement issue? I wonder how this chassis would do with shorter shocks?? Hmmm.

Well done.

Hey Rich, nice driving

The video does not show how really crazy some of those gate were, Being there in person i was impressed. Keep up the good work on the chassis

I think it is a foam issue, my foams are tired and very soft. The coquina rock has lots of little catches the make tires wrap around themselves. I get the same result no matter what the upper link placement. Nova tuning disks will be there next week to stiffen them up a bit. The rear needs some work though. I made new mounting holes last night for shock placement to lay them down some.

awesome driving and awesome vid. another amazing crawler

Thanks guys. I will try and shoot more footage this weekend. I have solved the drive under issue with the rear axle and softened it up a bit (Big thanks out to Harvo and Ehills4x4 for insight). It feels like a tarantula looks on the rocks now.

I should have the rev2 chassis in my hands in a couple weeks and time to start over
