Ok, I see you have the setup I was looking to do. How did you deal with the wires? Are they still just zip-tied to the TVPs or did you find some tubing to help protect them?

BTW Looks real sweet. Now go bashing!!

I'm really diggin this build & here is why:

1. i love the look of those tires.
2. i really love the clean look of the tvps with the battery box in back.
3. the shocks & wing look kick butt on there too.

Now, are we gonna keep talking like a bunch of ladies at a bridge tournament or we gonna see that thing run? :bolt:
 
Ran it yesterday and did some tuning. It is running strong. It's power is more controlable with the ext flm tvp's and midtank keeping the front wheels on the ground or at least keeping it from flipping on its roof. Cant wait to get it in the gravel pits and flying like a bird.
 
Think I will take it out to the dump and run it around a bit today after work. Than to the hobby shop on sunday to race the owner and his buggy again. This time he has a nova motor so wish me luck.
 
your gonna get the ercm and hit the gas and blow a diff, wreck your tranny and snap a bone all at the same time. better shim those diffs, shim your tranny, and get some flux bones. Once I get the rsc, flux bones, and a digi thr servo I'm gonna send the picco up to robin. by that time I should be just about the 2 gallon mark and broken in just nicely.
