Looking good Viruss!! (a bit familiar.. :) )

virusss 02.10.2006 06:31 AM

Hi serum, thanks, no i dont see the vertigo rollcage do you have a link?
For you the rollcage is necessary?I hope to try the truck and the buggy this week and i made a video for Rc-monster forum friends.

Yeah, they make more very nice products;

If you keep that motor low, you won't need one.. But they look soooo sweet.. :)

yes is very nice, but dont is in stock for now,i buy is late,for the moment i run without the rollbar

I'm gonna drop the body on mine down as far as possible to make up for the super low slung chassis, I'll pull them out of the standard spot which is on top of the shock towers, and mount them so the top is flush with the top of the tower. I'm going to run a ProLine body as well, not sure which it'll be, but their bodies are by far the most durable I've ever used.

A user on savage central, twisted toys, he makes this nice shocktowers, that are wider and lower (better for the ofna shocks imo) because they are lower, the body is lower too.

dabid 02.12.2006 04:15 AM

Yeah, they look pretty good and seem like they'd get the job done, but $60 is a bit much. I'll see if I can get the body low enough with the "free" mods I'm going to do first.

Very very nice savage, looks awesome!!

ON the savage tvps. Do i need the servo stuff or front plate or anything to go nitro?

dabid 02.14.2006 01:57 AM

Nope, it'll work fine even if you keep the stock stuff and bolt it up.

coolhandcountry 02.14.2006 10:07 AM

Thanks dabid. I just wanted to make sure. Hated to order it up and see I need more stuff. I just wanted to stretch the stock and lower it down. Not totally sure on the stretch yet. What do you think about it?

dabid 02.15.2006 03:39 AM

I'd go full stretch, I wasn't sure about it at first, but my truck now handles amazingly because of both the longer wheelbase and lcg. I'm sure the standard length one is nice too, and the bonus would be that you don't have to get a new body, I'm still trying to decide if I want to use the extended F-350 I got a while ago or attempt to use a MGT one.....

Have you got a link to those towers Dabid..? i can't find them anywhere..

dabid 02.16.2006 01:41 AM

http://www.freewebs.com/twistedtoys/index.htm
This is the closest I could find to getting the tower's page, just can't find it. I had the page the other day, but have no way to find it now.
