Just a thought on your motor sliding. Take a piece of scotch brite or sandpaper and scuff up the inside of the motor mount. Personally, I'd do the motor too - but I doubt you'd like the looks of it.

You can find the information at HPI's website. Or heck Tower has most of the info too.

Went bashing on Friday and managed to get some good shots before I fried the pinion gear. Time to order an RCM one....

The back drop of Picture number 1 is beautiful, no mountains in Fl.

If you think those are mountains, come to Colorado!:yes:

ZippyBasher 09.26.2010 09:50 PM

LOL I thought the same and I am from Cali! But Freeze the first shot looks Sick as well as the body.

But does that body rub the tire when turned and shocks compressed? Pic 2 looks close...

in pic 3 you can see the gorilla tape doing its job, with the downfall of balooning sidewalls (you can see the profile of the tire is actually a "U" shape) and lack of in-air control

Freezebyte 09.27.2010 02:56 AM

Reno, I can make a bigger size of that pic if you want, LMK

Here in FL a mountain is a huge dirt pile at a construction sight, FL is flat till you get up to the state line and then we have "Hills". :oops:

Um... you realize of course that Missoula in western Montana is in the same mountain range, the ROCKIES, that cut through western/central Colorado?! That "mountain" is nothing but a shot of the foothills.

I should go bashing at the foot of the Mission Mountain range. Now those are mountains, I drive by em on a weekly basis and a good family friends ashes are spread up there as well
