I kind of like it white. Its different and will be unique compared to others.

The cab, so to speak, is 3" wide and a separate part of the chassis. Sets on the outside of the sideplates. The V1 has just the 2 sideplates, with 2 small bumpers to push the width to 3".
The V2 is not so attractive either. :oops: |
Dome on the roof is the key to help with rollovers

Yes, I am very interested to try out the dome in the roofline now. It is no BeetleJuice but it rocks pretty darn good on the workbench. :yes: Just got a new Tekin FXR to try out. Had nothing but MM's in all my crawler since I started. Somewhat impressed with how small it is. Interested too see how well the drag brake holds. And I should have said the cab is 3" wide at the base when it is spaced and mounted to the sideplates. It is 2 1/2" at the top. You can see the 2 delrin spacers bowing down slightly as they are pulled together. I've been thinking about going with even shorter shocks. These chassis' really like that. But going much shorter may be too short. I'm running 80mm shocks now. Add Punk R/C dig and CDW OTA steering & she should be squared away. While all this is in limbo. I have been crawling my Kamikaze Zero-T Berg. And I like it ALOT so far. :gasp: |
I'll try and get some non-poser shot's in TN this weekend at Southern Cup. It's gonna be my first big event. :party:

And maybe some Vanquish SLW wheels :yes: http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...lw20120web.jpg |
Those are quiet possibly the best looking crawler wheels I have seen. Should look awesome on there.

Got some from the Bullhole practice though. http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...9/DSCN2820.jpg http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...9/DSCN2823.jpg http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...9/DSCN2817.jpg Fall Series starts in 2 weeks. :party: Wish me luck. :yes: |
I'm running the T1E moon buggy at the moment - I met all the VP guys in Donner, CA when I went to the worlds - They do some really nice work. I got from the LCQ into the main event but had some challenges in the finals...
I have a few nice builds in the works for the next RC-Crawler specials I don't think you'll be disappointed when you see what's going into them... All three are showcase builds... |

Well if you met Tom & Steve I'm sure Silas & RockShow Mike werent too far behind. Really good guys. I had no idea you were into crawling to the extent that you are. :oops: |
Hell yeah - Up to getting 2nds now in my NJ club... This is my moonbuggy...
Silas and VP are hooking my up with some goodies for an RCDRiver review :) http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04756.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04757.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04759.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04762.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04763.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04766.jpg http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/w...3/DSC04769.jpg |
I have a fair amount going into a rebuild this week...
New shock setup this was just to get me running - 88mm shocks with RPM adjustable pistons / losi golds CKRC steering setup VP DH/SLW wheels PS in Charlotte Wed -> Friday! |
Quote:
The 88mm shocks should do very nicely. I always thought just a tad shorter than 90mm would be just about right. You're gonna like the wheels alot too. A local bud just set his new rig up with the CKRC steering. I'll see that Saturday at our Fall Series comp. Thanks for the pic's too. How are you liking the high rise links? Enough to notice a big difference? Looking forward to seeing the rebuild. :yes: |
Oh Yeah, I Made Final's
Took my RockShow Berg to her first finals appearance this weekend. :party:
Had my stuff together but still kinda took me by surprise........literally :whistle: Put myself on the podium in 3rd........Wow, I'm still in shock. http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...9/DSCN2852.jpg |
