TheCrawlerStore is very pleased with the performance of our chassis kits (NN, CFNN, Stick) over the past years. In conjunction with a great driver our chassis kits have been at the top of the pile in many comps. Post any podium position here and I'll be more than happy to add them to our comp wins section for each chassis kit. Congrats on the wins guys!!!!!!
 
I won the Green River Bash 2 comp in KY last weekend with Super Class TCS "Stick". That event was our season finale, so the win secured 1st place for me in the SERCRC Super Class points series. ;)
 
Thanks Kev, results speak for themselves.

1rst Place PARC #13 at the Hole in the Rock.
This was the first run for this truck with no test
time before the comp. I just love this Chassis! The
copies aren’t as good, I know because I ran one all
of last year. Kevin yours is the best by far. It's a WINNER!!

Rick, I'm really glad to see you take this win. After all the past electronics problems etc., its well deserved. Glad to see you got the bugs worked out.
 
Lets see some pic's of each winner with a break down on what as been done to them. I'd love to see the specs on all those. To see if you guys are running the same set up or what your think makes you set better then other Sticks. The little things.

The biggest advantage I have is because of the TSC sticker on the roof :flipoff:

But I run Airtronics 359 servos, 6 cell sub c's under the knuckles w/ BB's in the front tires also. Another thing I did that really helped me out and my driving style, was to put 100wt. oil in the shocks. It really stopped the wobbling/bouncing around that I would get, when trying to climb something at full throttle. Also, with it being a bit stiffer, it allows me to carry a tire sometimes over things when needed. I also like running the Moabs backwards. For me when running them forward, they would tend to bounce around side to side more when climbing. When reversed, they go straight up now. Also, I use Simple Green on my tires all the time. Makes them more sticky than a brand new set

I love the 2nd pic the best of my truck(Thanks Sven)... But that is the last you will see of that truck. It is getting a complete rebuild this winter "thumbsup" . I only had to change 1 stub axle this whole year. I never did anything else to it. To me, if I can beat the living shiat out of a truck a whole year and never have to do anything to it and then rebuild it in the winter, that sells me over anyday 8) 8)
 
My rig started with a Stick chassis from The Crawler Store, a pair of locked Clodbuster axles, ThunderTech ajustable motor mounts, a pair a Integy 55 turn motors w/heavy springs, 9T front/8T rear pinions. The front and rear Hitec HS5645MG servos get their juice from a Novak Super Rooster speed control, connected to three Team Orion 3000mah NiMH cells on each front knuckle with Deans Ultra plugs. Emaxx shocks with stiff springs. The radio is a modified Traxxas TQ3. Tires are Proline 40-series Moabs on Proline Outback wheels w/Twisted Toys rockrings.

Pics were taken the day after returning home from the Nationals in Moab.... still had Moab dirt on it. :)
