High speed G-maxx for ISC event, 100mph or bust

[Rivermaxx]

I lengthened the chassis again this time with a mono block and I am using the long hardcore titanium skid for a wheel base of ~15 inches Hopfully to get more high speed stability. I was going to order a custom shaft from rc alloys but found out the savage xk rear shaft might work perfect. I started trimming the slipstream body up figuring out I should of left some of the plastic on thats supposed to be trimmed off. I figure out I screwed it up for the best setup for high speed. So it is going to be used for my g4 maxx now . So I started trimming the Jconcept body up to the best of my ability. I know some of you dont like the looks of it and I am kinda partial to the slipstream body also but this body looks like it would be better for the build after I mounted it. At least until I get another slipsteam I need to move forward. Understand I still need to trim the bottom up but I am planning on running a thin lexan sheet on the hole bottom of the truck to help with reducing drag on the bottom. I left the front of the body long also because I plan on running a front wing off a 16th scale ofna model that matches the rear wing almost perfect but alot smaller.

The front wing still needs to be mounted up.


Does it remind you of somthing ? Not exactly but you guys know what I'm trying to do .






Notice the esc is sticking out of the body because the body sits so low. It will still be protected by the roof and the wing. It couldnt of worked out better because it is perfect for keeping the esc the absolute coolest and easy access to the switch. right on top.

hmmmm....maybe you could have just left that horozontal piece of lexan on the front of the body instead of trimming it off - could have been your front splitter built in for free!

But in all honesty - I think to reduce drag, that front wing needs to extend to outside of the wheels so that it can open a pocket of air for the wheels to pass through.....I think......
