Griz took a bunch of photos of it that are up in his account. You'll need to look in the MSD forum for them.
She performed really nicely down in Montana. Too bad I didn't end up running it for the comp and TTC :mrgreen: Thanks to the owner for loaning her to me for the trip ;-)
Well back in January Chris parted with his beloved FatGirl. Since the FatGirl changed hands not much was heard about it. Until MSD, where it suddenly showed up out of the blue. I don't think anyone was expecting it there and yet there it was.
I was unable to attend MSD even though everything was lined up for me to go. So the day Chris left for Montana I met up with him as he drove through town. Along with some back up Lipo's I gave him the FatGirl to take down with him to do what he pleased with. I had stripped the FatGirl of the mod's I had done to it since it wasn't ready. But here is how it currently sit's ( as it did before i gave it to Chris ) . Some trimming, painting and drilling has to be done but you get the picture.

Looks great with that hood on there Justin. After running it in Montana, I was sorry I sold it, but glad it went to where I'm still able to visit her once in a while 
!
!Hopefully you found these by now. Not a ton but I did take a few pics.

That new hood along with the Rock Lox makes her look proper. "thumbsup" The Slingers were just a bit too small.

Thanks Chris. Well your welcome to borrow it when ever you like"thumbsup". That's one of the reason's you wanted to keep it local right:mrgreen:. I wish I could have seen it in action down at MSD.
Thanks Chris, Chris(ecoli) told me you were a bit of a shutter bug when it came to the FatGirl. Thanks for sharing the pics"thumbsup".
If I had the Rok Lox' at that time I'm sure it would have been wearing them. I just couldn't get my hands on a set :x. But Ecoli told me the slingers hooked up pretty good.

The Rok Lox look great on there. Can I try it out next?:ror:

Yep, the puller and MM definitely have a distinct sound to them. I was hooking it up in my basement the night before, and combined with the digital servo, I got in trouble with my wife for all the noise it was making :ror:
Crappy video I took. Trying to drive and film at the same time. That wasn't even close to WOT up the hill!
I'm trying to convince Justin to bring her down to Scale Nats next year so everyone can have a chance to ride her...I mean drive her :mrgreen:
I had forgotten how low the FG rides. Sitting next to my 1.9 Cherokee, the roof height is probably close to 1" lower than the Cherokee, and that's with 5.5" tires and 90mm shocks "thumbsup"

Thanks. You'll have to talk to Jester666 if you want it, since he owns it now. I doubt very very much that he'll sell it though :ror:
My Class 3 build for 2011 will be something along the same lines as the Fat Girl. I just love these southern buggies "thumbsup"
You never know. I don't even remember the last time "I" ran it .:lmao:
