So Having found the pics brought back fond memories of bashing this truck, so I decided to make another.

Dug thru the spares and found a 3.3 revo chassis and a decent selection of small parts. Ordered the needed parts off ebay, when they show up I will take a group photo!

Thinking I will run a sidewinder 8th system (for 150 bucks it seems like a no brainer...) on 4 or 5s. I do have a few oddball motors that I may try...

Going to lock a nitro revo trans in 2nd gear, and make my own motor mount. I need to make one for the other revo based project anyway.

Necroing AND double posting?
Tsk tsk linc.

Man, I miss RC.
I wish I had the cash flow OR time here in college.

Better make this build more kick ass!

Not to worry scholarbuns, I shall make this a build to remember. Or at least a build to forget.

Might even go outrunner.... who knows!

That would be the one for you than.

Took you almost 4 days to come up with that one, huh?

One day we shall meet, an epic battle of will and wit shall ensue. Insults will fly and tears will flow. When the dust settles there will but one victor, who shall evermore bask in the glory of RCM member's deep gratification, while the other shall be doomed to the pit of desolation in which he shall have to laugh at Jerry's jokes and translate jayhay's posts into discernible conversation. My heart longs for this day, yet I feel some trepidation as my victory is not a guarantee. I must bring my A game and only through diligent preparation and careful application may I triumph over you Harold, my arch nemesis.

It shall be a bittersweet day, oh Pimp of the Lincolns. While I have the utmost respect for your intellect and ability (and girth) I shall bar no holds when I maniacally and systematically break down every iota of inner strength you possess until you lie quivering naked in the middle of the floor in a puddle of your own filth and tears. (just like we did to Bondo in that Super 8 in Bakersfield! :yes: )

In the end, there can be only one...

The R/C-lander!!!

Thats my boys going at it as always.. I'll try to make a decipherable post as im mostly sober.

miss you all keep up the good stuff

A sober post from jayjay!!! Truck looks good dude, I like the stance.

I feel your pain on the emaxx reassembly. I am rebuilding my workshop and had to move all of my half finished rc projects. The 6x6 Maxx is one of them, and only really lacks a modded set of bulks to tie it together. Also found the 6x6 lst, that needs electronics which I need to figure out. Lots of fun to be had and even more money to be spent!!!
