To be politically correct they are vertically challenged :005:

Nice vid by the way. The truck looks to handle quite well with the CRT shock setup.

Okay, i should have asked if the camera man was sitting?

Maybe the camera person just stepped in a hole :032:

Didn't thought of that option.. Must be my limited imagination...

I'm 6'4" so I use the the word midget quite often.
I wanted him to get the truck jumping the depression just before the closest turn. But by the time I got the camera out the trucks batteries were just about dead (the LVC kicked in on the last pass of the video) and it wasn't getting air like it was earlier.
I had both traxxas bigbores with rpm two stage pistons and proline powerstokes on this truck previously. Neither of them come close to the Jammin bigbores. I lands jumps like a well setup savage and puts power to the ground much better (doesn't wheelie or push nearly as much). With the other shocks you had to run heavy shock fluid to keep it from slapping on jump landings. Then it would skip over small bumps at speed and wheelie when you gave it even a little throttle, which made it push when you gave it throttle into a turn.
After I get a slipper natural in this thing I'm pretty sure it will kick my Jammins' a$$. It's pretty close as it stands.

Yeah, it takes quite some imaginition to know he is talking about a body...

LOL

smhertzog 11.04.2006 06:04 AM

Oh, body:018:

It's a prepainted Suburban I got on sale from TowerHobbies for $19. It lasted alot longer than I thought it would. It was very thin less than .40 I used alot of packing tape on the inside.
I like .60 they are more rigid but they seem to crack instead of bend some times.

Yep it was a bluelight special. The bodies (none pickup or crowd pleaser types) that use extended body posts seem to offer a little more cushion for bashing. The only thing is they tear the rear body pins out easily and wear the post ends quickly.
