Exactly, Brian!

Add a bent upper shock mount stud to the list.

Damn it! No upright in my spares. Going to have to order a replacement and some spares.

Damn Steve I am surprised the chassis didn't get trashed.

I'm digging the metallic blue paint but now I'm scared to drive it, lol.

So now that Brian and Tony are both rocking the Castle motors and speed controllers I gotta step up my game because those guys will definitely out run me. Time for some long travel action!

Started with rear Proline Powerstroke rear shocks on the front, adjusted the steering turnbuckles to the lower pivot position and lengthing them. Now I have to shave a little off the Proline arms to clear the caster blocks, front bumper and the front skid plate to allow for more droop. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

Yeah, that blue is going to look really bad after the SC10's get done with it. OH! Got a new sponsor! Haha!

[hobbyturnedobsession]

Track is looking good Josh!

You won't be able to catch me with my whoop eating long travel Stewart Raceworks Raptor RC Brian! LOL. Got the front shocks mounted and the arms cycled and trimmed for no binding issues. When we bashing again?

That is badass! I used to have MIPs axles in my old slash 4x4s. Had no idea they were making stuff like this too. That is pretty damm cool! Your Slash looks bad ass too BTW!

Thanks Dave. Any updates on the light bar on your 5SC? Got that thing mounted? You should film it on a night run.

Yeah, I've got Racer's Edge 1/2dgr hubs. Was mostly interested in the bigger outboard bearing.

What an absolute blast spending four days in Baja and of those four days we had two days of RC action. Tony, Vic and I all brought out our 10th scale trucks. I finally had a chance to try out my long travel front end and I was really happy on how it handle. Here is a quick video D1cker1 took:



Slash takes the win over the AE, lol.

[yikes]

Wow! That TT just got nerfed by a 5 car.

For the record that was a 5 Unlimited, lol. Man we had a blast out there.

[tcm glx]

The 5 open lost the whole shot but caught up to the poorly built and driven TT. Hahaha
