thanks dude... you shood pick one up...its very therapeutic to take an occasional break from monster trucks.:005: |
if i had skill i would build one man. i love it so much that my words cannot explain!
|
AwwW shucks man...now you gone and made me blush!!.....:007:
HAHA...do you have a tube bender?...coz thats was like the hardest part.....getting them two square rods to bend exactly at the same point and at the same degree.......you could use a bench vise and bend both at the same time....but then...i dun have a bench vise:035: hence the sorry use of the tube bender...:020: |
don;t have either!
|
Very nice work, even if it doesn't do what you want. you'll have a heck of a shelf queen
|
haha...i guess you're right....cept that i dun have enuf shelf space for bashers let alone queens....:024:
and if i do leave it on the shelf, there'll be a higher chance that i'll tear it apart again...and try sumthin else...sad but none of my projects stay in one piece for long, not coz i wreck 'em buy coz i get bored very quickly....:027: |
I am absolutely totally impressed! And trust me, I rarely ever say that! I fab stuff for RC cars and more frequently for full size drag cars so I totally appreciate your enginuity and craftsmanship. AND I absolutely LOVE the paint scheme. Absolutely COOL!
The only recommendations I can make from the 1:1 scale racecars (probably way too late now) is that you will have enhanced stability with a frontal track that equals or exceeds the rear track when drag racing. Also, a very slight offset or the rear axle(s) to the right side of the truck will help sometimes offset torque steer on launch. Once again.....AWESOME IMPRESSIVE AND WICKED COOL! Great Job! |

thanks for the tips...who knows?...perhaps a version III will materialise?.. :eek: |
well, sad to say, yesterday's "Draggular II" speed run was cancelled due to bad weather...rained all day!:mad:1
but it did get to stretch its "legs" a little in a covered carpark.... the hauler drives very unlike a hauler....quite nimble for sumthin so long...turns well too. much to my surprise actually...LOL. the shocks work well due to the rigidity of the chassis.... all in all, i am quite satisfied with the end result. i will get a speed run recorded on vid soon so stay tuned folks!!:027: .... |
It is always nice for it to handle better than expected. I looking forward to a video of it. Hey you may have started a new trend and don't know it yet.

but i guess it would be a real kick in the pants if "Draggular" does indeed start a new "class" of RC......racing 3 speeders!!!...nice ring to it eh?...haha. hmmm. actually, one of my buddies here in singapore says he's gonna do one up for himself.....maybe...just maybe.... |
completion date.....06-2006

very sweet ride
|
Sweet! I love the backround, but even more the truck! Its absolutely beautiful! Im speechless.
|
thanks dudes.....:027:
here's a short vid.....hope it works... performance was not up to expectation as this was the 3rd or 4th run on a crappy neglected pack...... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4..._Draggular.jpg |
Very fast! If you put a nice matched pack in there you will be up on your lid very soon! :)
|
One of the nicest conversions i've ever seen - and i've seen plenty - looks AWESOME -
