i bet that would be a sick machine. that sucks on the not being fired in years. it's a wonderful piece of work bud.
thanks, this build has came a long ways from just a little freshening up.

got some of the little things worked on tonight.
put fullforce extended cups on the front, didn't like the sag, much better now, and got the kraken chase cage adapter installed. had to tie it into the extension piece that came on my sc due to the pipe. but should be a little easier now. had to work most of the day, then watched the fights tonight. so hopefully going to get the other break-in tanks through it tomorrow.

Well both boxes showed up Monday. Here's some pics. Will be doing some installation over the next week or so hopefully.




Just need some rear hubs and some irp steering turnbuckles and I think she'll be good for a bit.

YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


also took it out today and was messing around in a spot i normally do, and right near the top of the jump it grabbed traction on wheel wheel and launched it at an angle, and broke the rear bumper. go figure, lol. it rained last night and was hoping it would mean better traction. but its dry enough it soaked it all up and you couldn't really tell.
at least it broke that instead of the cage

well took advantage of a sale that ddm was having and got a few things
irp turnbuckles and standoffs, new air filters, and rpm rear loop.





also got to take it out yesterday before the superbowl, here's a vid. towards the end of the day i decided to put the hpi tarmac busters on it just to see what it'd do with them

Got a few more things on the ddm sale that showed up today
X2 chassis, some more hostile boots, hostile nightmare rear tires with zero growth hard foams, hostile outer beadlocks with silverback inner, umbrella seals, and some other miscellaneous bits.
Not sure if the twin will get the x2 chassis or if it'll be the start of a ground up build. But couldn't pass up the price.

been messing around with my fine line air brush a little, and decided to try it out on some rims, and a new gear cover. get those matching the rest of the car

painted inside and out of the rims, this way you can see it through the spaces in the rim too. let these cure a day or 2, then i'm going to get some clear on them and get them installed.

Really like the detailing on the rims and cover... matches the rest of the chassis nicely...

had a bad connection on the plug wires, hoping thats that running issue.




tried an msd coil wire kit, and it ended up being a little short, so i found some wire on ebay, had some coil wire ends i had at the shop, and took the msd boots. here she is now.


here's the leftover wire


found this was broken when i had everything off


have a spare one, but i think i might upgrade to aluminum, as its my second on that broke in the same fashion.

have some other parts on their way, should be here tomorrow or next day. some new gearing, and my side body mounts that were missing when i got this. more pics later
