I like the end as well, looked like things were going to get ugly there for a sec. And that rock bouncing into the camera topped it off.
Looked like getting that battery in one handed was a bit tricky Nice roll cage though.
How do you like that 1515 2.5d, quark and 5s combo? That's what I use in my maxx and I think it's a great setup.
Are those tires about 170mm in diameter and very hard with no foam inserts? A nitro car dad bought about 5 years ago came with tires that looked like that. I raced them with my e-maxx for a fair while. They worked well, even though there was no traction (full throttle drifting the whole way) that was when it was stock though.

they are the stock mgt tires i boiled off the stock rim, i think there a hair under 180. they do really good i wanted a light weight tire that had the same or similar rolling diameter as the stock stuff to i figured the cheapest way was to stick with the stock rubber. the tires do have foam insert but its that really crappy foam that brakes down not the hi density PE. i really i enjoy building them the most, driving them around second so racing is really out of the question. i just wanted something purpose build go all/anywhere brute.
