hkenvy91 - this is Joel here in Charlottesville. I have an MP777 buggy with the novarossi bf 21 engine on it. I just put the JP3 pipe on it - great combination. When rebuilding my buggy this past winter I went back to the stock/standard chassis braces front and rear. I noticed on your truggy that you have the upgraded stock style on the front and the rigid cnc style on the rear --- is there a reason that you went with that set-up?

I went back to the stock style chassis braces after reading where a couple of guys said that they liked that set-up better because that chassis was designed to have a little flex in it. So I thought I would give it a try myself. I have only run the buggy one time this season (last Sunday) so far and not sure how I will like it.

How do you like running a .21 on your truggy?

Hope to see all of you Powhatan guys this summer for a race!

just put a washer and nut over the top of the pivot ball so it can't pop off!
