The weather has been really weird here in the pacific north west lately and with work i haven't had much time at all to take any of my Rc's out for spin

Before i get ahead of my self here, a while back i had bought some Proline Maxx mashers for my gf's emaxx and to use on my MGT, well when i converted my MGT over with a 1717 and 6s it started to eat 14mm hexes in the rims and i had already patched them up with JB welded hexes inside... So i got bored and decided i would boil them off and boil off the half bald truggy tires i had and mount the mashers up on my 17mm hex truggy rims! While i was at it i also ran a single 1" strip in the center of the tire to keep them from ballooning


Well while the gf was at work i decided to take my mugen back out sense the last time when I destroyed my Slipperential... I feel the stock diff with the same 30k oil felt better to drive all together. I got good traction with the mashers on there and on 6s i could get a little wheelie out of the truggy, I was only gonna run for a couple mins beacause i thought the 1512 would have a hard time with all that tire mass now.


I ended up running half the pack before i decide i should quit while i was head and i had started to get trigger happy while playing in the snow I also have not water proofed anything Don't mind the no wing lol, I have on on order.

I was so impressed with how this actually turned out! I really wanted to keep my truggy for strictly on the track...but after seeing what its capable of I'm very impressed and not sure what i want to do once i get a actual truggy motor for this thing!
