You should have kept both the chassis' diff mounts, and ran two 2200 combos, each on 5 cell. That would have been crazy!

I'll race ya...

The foams are surprisingly sticky, plus I can always put some traction compound on them! The chassis will probably just get painted whatever color we are spraying the day I decide to paint it...

This is a cool project. In board shocks with cantilever suspension, narrow chassis, hmmmm.... I see an F1 or an Indycar. I thought FTW was for Feed The World.


No brain, no headaches.

Yes, it would make a cool indy chassis with some mods.

oh yea I have some of that tire compound.
wish you knew where you got those tires. that's heck of alot easier to mount than my FG wheels with square hub and 5/16 hole

How did you find the body ? very cool to use a truck, maybe slamm it or do like a stock race car/truck or somethin

Hey Linc did I infect you with the super sizing of a emaxx/revo ? Glad to see someyone else doing it

I got the tires from an old hobby shop that went out of business. I just wish I kept the packaging... I really like projects, and the larger scale stuff is just cool. I have wanted to do a stretched revo for a while, just did not have a body to go on it. This truck will be slammed to the ground, street only!

I will get the number off the body ,and google it to see what it is supposed to be used on, probably a FG or something similar.

You liked it, so I guess it was big enough for you. And given your considerable experience with this sort of stuff that says alot. I still cannot believe you spiked my drink, I guess there was no other way...
