Default Trevo, my new idea.

So I have had a lot of talk about making new RC innovations on the buggy forum and what not. However, this time I am actually going to make this. Here is the deal I am going to fab a truggy style chassis for the revo components, but I will be using some OFNA MBX engine mounts, engine, pipe, and fuel tank, also the dogbones (for a longer chassis) I promise to you I WILL do this for real and will post pics at the end. I am using a 1/8th gauge 12 x 24 inch sheet of 7075 aluminum to construct the chassis and w/e else I want. Now I have a couple of questions. Will 14t clutch bell with a 40t spur make it torqy or fast top speed? Has anyone else done this? ok guys now time for your input. (fingers crossed) I hope you like the idea. Also I will be sending it into Traxxas to encourage them to create some 1/8TH SCALE! lol
