Vanquish Currie F9

[fr8cture]

Gotcha. I probably did pump up SSD a bit much but I'm pretty pumped they are here:mrgreen: On the same note my SSD housings are equipped with VP VVD HD's and stage one kit. If you produce quality parts I will buy them.

I agree my next project is probably gonna run the SSD plastic housing XR modded with the vp scale wraith stuff. "thumbsup"

 

[SCREAMER]

OH man, can't wait to see that fr8cture!

 

[fr8cture]

I have to. I'm a big fan of the vp scale stuff. SSDs new scx stuff is similar but just not the same. lol

SSD has a $100 version of the ford nine inch they're calling the diamond axle. They make it for the Wraith and SCX10. I wonder how the Vanquish version will differ besides the obvious licensing. I love the faux welds on this and my Curries. Can't wait for more info.

Pretty sure the SSD Diamond axles are scale Diamond axles. At least I would assume so...

Vanquish "tig welds" are sweet "thumbsup"

Just saw a pic of the chunk. I can't wait to get a set of these for a monster build.

Looks like a stock locker. Thats a problem with drop out 3rd member is can't run vp locker with set screws.

That's not a problem, you are better off with a a Holmes Hobby one anyhow.

VP says they're coming up with a new locker design.

Great, more money to spend. Honestly the vp locker without set screws is perfectly fine and has a ton less play then stock or other lockers. But I am curious about this new locker.

Haha, less slop than stock is stretching it.

My SuperShafty (same as the Holmes Hobby ones) have far more use and still actually tighter than my VP ones were when they were new.

 

[gbean]

The F1 is the tightest of them all.

 

[distinctive pd]

Seriously? My stock lockers were terrible. My vp is a ton better.
