Gorillamaxx chassis T-MAXX... - 01.09.2008, 02:45 PM

I like my gorillamaxx brushless E-maxx and how it handles so much that I decided to transform my T-maxx to a gorillamaxx Chassis. this way the weight of the fuel tank, rx, battery pack and bottom plate could be lowered 1 3/4" this adds up to 450g with fuel. Also the tranny and servo's would be lowered another 1/2" (250g)... And by running Gorillamaxx shock towers I can lower the body and 4 shocks another 3/4" lower than stock (250g) I think this will all add up to pretty good performance on the track and maybe scare a few truggies as all this will add up to a light T-maxx tipping the scale at around 3300g (7.25 lbs) RTR with racing tires and fuel. Only problem is I can't use a bumpstart as i'll mount the engine on the back top plate of the gorilla chassis, but it sure is going to be nice to show something different at the local track on race day! I'm starting this project asap and will post pics when I'm done!

So what do you guys think? dont be afraid to speek up and bash me if you want to! lol


Working on:
Twin CF GorillaMaxx (8S motors on 2x2slipo)
2WD AL. GorillaMaxx (7lbs with batteries)
