project is looking very good. cant wait to see it with that bus body on it

[snookerd1206]

You can use 2s lipos with that evx esc in the photo I see, just need an lva ( low voltage alarm), I am pretty sure they advertised that esc as being able to handle 4s total, but I don't think there is a low voltage cutoff

not a fan of lipos

i am looking for a tall rear body mount to fit a bus body (aluminium)

Traitor!! J/K. You like Blue i thought

I like the build pretty good on how you setup the batteries there and tires look like they can grip what your going to do

[james843]

I picked up a Traxxas 16.8v EVX-2 ESC i am having 2 custom 7 cell packs made with the 7th hanging off on the inside and i am going to run 2 7 cell hump packs on the top

On the lookout for a new body the bus buddy does not fit it's not wide enough

Sucks that it won't fit it turned out so good

You know its ironic cause I just reserved Fast and Furious at my local video store like 5 minutes before reading this...

Looks great. Now all you need is a DeWalt motor and logos... Or CAT. Howd u mout up the supercharger? Just CA glue, or did you put it through some how?

Been wanting to put a functional scoop on my hood, just havnt had time.

[james843]

It's actually not mounted yet but there is two screws that held it to the Muscle Machines car I'm going to just going drill two little holes and screw it on the RC body

I am actually considered selling or trading it

ok so i lost a lot of pic os i am goingto repost a lot so sorry if double post some

Holy crap I love that LCG chassis, got a link? Wow.
Second, who makes that CNC front bumper, I have one on mine and am still trying to figure that out. Thanks, beautiful build.

[Zane_Grey]

You can find the chassis on Ebay every once in a while. I had found a site with them on it once but can't find it anymore, maybe James has a link.

[Oldrcguy]

Thanks Zane. I've started replacing the integy stuff with FLM now. Starting with jacked up front bulkheads and the X braces.

[james843]

Sorry I got the chassis off eBay And the wife got me the bumper as a gift I believe it came off ebay also

Took the E maxx out today With all intentions of making a video To post up and was Driving it around and all of a sudden It only has front wheel drive So time to tear down to see what's wrong with it

[Oldrcguy]

Haha have to love those shakedown runs.

[james843]

Well its something easy seems that the wheel nut either came loose and let the pin in the shaft come out or the pin broke and loosened up the wheel nut
