Here it is side on. Looks nice eh ?


And here's what it looks like underneath. Theres around 4.5" of ground clearance (it'll go up but I built it with a low CG)


Here's the truck attacking my friends PC


Here's the truck attacking it from the front. Dig that suspension travel


Here's the truck venting my wrath on a PC that refuses to work


Check out the articulations in the chassis ! Stupid PC


Action shot ! Just so you all know, its hard to line up the shot, taking the photo and drive/control the truck all at once !


Another action shot, this time pulling some hoops in the dirt. Again, its hard taking these sorts of shots on your own.


Attacking some truck ramps I found out the back of work


Since those shots the bodies been cut back for more wheel clearance (and articulation).
The wheels have been narrowed 1/4".
The tyres have been nipped and narrowed 1/4", the heights increased by 1/4".
Fitted 9 tooth pinions.
Have to fiddle with suspension mount points and the links to get everything out of harms way.
