G2R Bling Bling teaser pics -

I just got these from the machine shop today. Can anyone tell the difference between these and the stock ones? I'll have more pics once I clean up the edges and mount them.

Coooool, carbon fiber
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise |

Chris,
Get those finished up and mounted so you can show me at the track tomorrow night :003: Electronics run on smoke... if you let the smoke out, they stop working. |

Nice! You got a head start on George!
The difference between yours and the stockers will be these extra two "ears" on the front upper deck, right? |

Let me guess. Some kind of roll-cage?

Not a roll cage, but that is a good idea if this was going to be a bash truck.

Looks really good, how would this be manufactured, what machines?
Are the ears for a Anti-roll bar? |

Very nice ccristo! But 1 thing worries me, the flex, already the aluminum has a bit of flex in them, and i dont know if carbon fiber will be too durable , but in bling factor its awesome! :)

Carbon Fiber is not as flexy as aluminum. In most cases they either crack or break, but dont bend.
Nice to meet you! |

well than it might have cracking problems lol, the g2r is a bit more suffisticated(sp?) than normal g-maxx chassis, thats why im wondering if some if not all those plates hold up to everyday running.

Nick - The parts are made on a cnc milling machine. The ears are not for an anti roll bar/sway bar, but hat is another good idea though. When I get home I'll see if i could add that.
The CF is very stiff. It's 3mm so there is no flex at all. I don't think they will break, but I'll have to wait to run it to see. |
