Nice. Next thing you need to do is post a vid of it haul ballz [8D] BTW where did you get them at.

89ram

so what do you call those? wheelie nuts? suppose they spark when you drag em?

ScRacing

Why put hte pipe like that? JUST make it come out side the body, it is more eficient and benifits the entire truck more being on hte side.

Miami RC

Wanted to do something different.....My brother is the Mad Scientist and he builds some awesome cars......this is just another one of his wild rides....they don't just look good they also run HARD !!!!

do you think is a good idea to lock the front diff we lock the rear but not the front it does to much damage.but that thing looks real good im going to post some pictures of mines soon when i get a chance

Miami RC

we are going to try it out....since we are not bashing or jumping....we hope it wont be so bad...this is a straight line truck for the most part....the thing is, during the third tank of break in and only temping 180 degrees...when it would hit second gear...it would "change lanes"....lol and we think it has to do with the limited slip front end...so we are going to experiment with the solid diff front and see if it solves the problem..if not we will have to tune the suspension even more so... to compensate for the engines torque....we will put up video as soon as we get it all dialed in..

i have the same problem with my revo when it hits second its out of control!!

Miami RC

lol, ya man when that powerband kicks in, whoa nelly !!!!

revopqrs

looks cool! i ran that motor before the nova, i liked it. kinda picky tho. well actually mine was the turbo head, so that could cause that.
i just dont know how you guys can avoid jumping them?

ScRacing

i like doing cyclones, spining doughnuts so fast you pick up the inside wheele. It6s allso fun to jump off of hills, i know oyu southern guys, not the south, but people living south of me don't have hills like we do. But it is so cool to just jump you revo out so fare off of a hil and because of the forces involved, you can go really bigt and not worrie aobut herting your truck. And btw, running on pavement is about as boring as watching leavs fall from a tree.

Miami RC

Down here in Miami we like to run 132' and Top Speed....We don't exactly have many "hills"

bennyblanco

boring you don't know what you talking about its fun meeting with a bunch of guys racing there cars whats so different about that and you jumping of a hill praying that nothing breaks i know i have fun we dont have hills in the dirty south so we have to come up with something!!

MiamizFinest

id like hills but its miami and there is no hills...................unless its that big land fill in coral city.................25 miles inland and we are still at sea level where would u like the hills to be????????? lol street raceing isnt boreing if your halling ass...............

bennyblanco
