Got the first two pieces bent, bought wing mounts & a wing. (Not positive I want a wing, but trying it out for now) Testing out different methods of gluing the abs to see which gives the best result (plastix weld, epoxy, gorilla glue, and some other superglue like plastic bonder)
Need to find some tires & rims. Want sand paddles in the back, and smaller thin razors (I think they're called that?) for the front. Hopefully with some good stagger in size. I hate trying to find the right tires & rims to fit rc's, lol.
The bending went really well - they're not identical, but they don't look bad to me! (Bent the outer two rollcage pieces that would go around a driver, used the .375 abs). Going to do the rollcage out of the thick stuff, and the rest of the cage out of the .250" abs. Should give a good look, and a solid build.
Biggest questions are how to do the joints, and how to attach it to the chassis. I'm playing with a few different options on both.
