The Box, was shrouded with some stock tires and rims...just to see how it handles vs the Trac-Ta-Gator from proline...And man, what a difference, the car not just wider, it can even slide ..that was impossible with the Trac rubbers. I dont use any Foam in the tires and i think it handles real good. Dirty... -

ohh yes..but i think it is kind of perfect not to slooow or to fast...since the 3rd mod and oilshock mod the box is better...no, from this run i hav edrilled the rear pistons, realy hard so there is not much "Pack".. -

Kind of used to over motorized cars i will ofcourse use custom made carbonfibre bodymounts. And im aware it will be kind of difficult to drive, in that case, il throw in a bonded 7.5r . I will use a Lexan body, the stock one will i save =). May i as, how does it handle with a 15?. maybe if it is so hard to drive, il get a 13.5 ? "stock bl" -

Ok, so i took the motor today...my choice fell on a Novak motor, the new one with Sintred (this is used,some scratches, but ok) rotor.a 6.5r will be good. First some Mr Muscle bath, to remove the most of the Purple color.. Middle ring is done.. And the result..enjoy! -
