Not exactly like that, what I know is that He collaborate with the Tamiya's engineers in designing and developing the chassis. If anyone known more info about that, fells free to leave a comment.

Project juggernaut 2
Flerbizky
I've always loved Jug-based project, and this one is getting ever better! Perfect job on the paint removal, I'm doing the same with some brake fluid (in the garage..) and it seems to be a long long job..

Tlt based project - step 2. part 1
il_maligno
Thanks mate, the original project includes bigger wheels/tires (from a Mad Bull) but the wheel openings of the Jug body are too small for them, reducing the suspension travel. That's why I left the smaller TLT wheels ;-)

Finally i've found my favourite rally car.

Hugernaut - part 1
il_maligno
Glad You appreciate xrayal! Go to 'Hugernaut - Part 2' for a few pics of the chassis, I'll add a few ones more since I fixed the front/rear body post, and added swaybars to reduce chassis roll.

Bizarre project..
il_maligno
Ciao Max, piacere di risentirti! Benissimo, tu? Uhm...speriamo di no, sarebbe un bel peccato... Aggiornamenti a settembre credo, le officine meccaniche ad agosto nn fanno un tubo, quindi...
A presto! Bye Oscar

Tlt based project - step 2. part 1
il_maligno
Thanks for Your tips guys, however I disassembled the project since I was unhappy with it.The car handles really bad during corners and under accellerations, so I will change the suspension geometry, use different swaybars, lower the Jug body and the battery and install smaller (YES smaller) wheels and tires. This modifications would improve stability, on the bad side probably I'll dispense some wheel travel..

The major the hassle, the better the result..

Thanks for the hint SJoerD, I fixed the model number now.
