Look out Losi.....It's a Little bit bigger and a whole lot lighter.

 

[rampage idiot]

HAH gotta luv it!

 

[Guest]

Wow, what is the wheelbase?

Looks awesome!

Although I use the weight of the Losi to get "pushy" with the lighter trucks on the track. Sometimes weight is an advantage. Not in a drag race, but rubbing in a corner it's helpful.

thats beastly ... i love it .. id love to get my xb-e that long and wide ... no pun intended ..

 

[Ol' fart]

Wow, what is the wheelbase?

24" and the width is 21" with trenchers. bumper to bumper will be about 38"

I'll make an electric one too.

I have two projects in front of this one so don't look for them until Dec some time. I just set the wheels on and I had to show someone "cause it looked so good.

Since is costum made wasnt the Mt fuel tank a better option? Im curious cause a lot of people complain the x series tank is not enough.

I'm sure it would be an easy swap.

 

[Ol' fart]

Good call. I'll order some.

Light is always welcome.... You can add weight any where you want it.

I've known a lot of women that would love to be able to say that!

Need some ideas for a bumper design. T-bone type, or??

She's a big,n!

That's the wheel base of the Dune Runner and the 5ive.

What are you thinking, truck, buggy or maybe truggy?

 

[Ol' fart]

This on will be a buggy. I'm going to try something different this time. The buggy will come with a full chrome-moly roll cage with super thin SS inside the cage. That's it for a body, kind of like they do on some Baja 1000 buggy's

Just pop-rivet aluminum to the inside of the roll cage and they are done. I'd like to run a bumper like they do but I'm not sure an all steel bumper will hold up in the long run so....plastic?? If I do go with a steel bumper it will be separate from the cage so it will be relatively cheap to replace.

 

[Guest]

That's going to look sick!

The T-Bone bumpers hold up pretty good. Maybe get the cage built first, and see how one looks.

 

[Knuckles]

Take a look at the RPM baja bumper. Otherwise T-bone is great too.

 

[Ol' fart]

Thanks guy's. I'll take a look at the RPM one.

 

[Guest]

The RPM version will need to be braced. They snap easily right at the bend if not supported.

 

[Chief409]

Is this going to be a RTR or kit?

 

[Ol' fart]

It will be a "roller" No wheels, engine or radio. However, if you want a rtr I'll put one together to your spec's.
