Scale CORR Truck
Starting my project tomorrow at school its gonna be a 1/10th CORR style truck built to the exact scale except running a electric motor
my plans are 1/4in aluminum chassis 4 link rear suspension independent front suspension bypass shocks on all 4 corners dual stage shocks solid rear axle(not to sure on that yet) scale roll cage either F-150 or Silverado body not to sure on tires ill have to make a trip to toys r us soon when i finish it ill be running a novak GTS spectrum 2.0 and at leat a 15 turn motor either myself or my schools machine shop will be making all the parts any suggestions? since this is my first car ill be building completely from sratch my chassis plans are here: http://www.corracing.com/pdfs/Pro2Chassis.pdf ill post pics through out the project |

Wow, I saw the "Desert racer" prototype but I never heard about that version.
|
I thought it looked pretty sweet, I would guess that it will sell pretty well, but i doubt that it will really catch on and im sure there wont be much racing of them.
|
it looks nice and looks like i might be borrowing some ideas from it but i want to get my hands dirty on this one plus i get a grade in shop for it so why not? itll be cheaper to and i can get everything exactly the way i want it

There is no one best manufacture out there.
|
That's funny, because the non-Ford teams I deal with all have Fords for pre-runners or they use Ford suspensions under their "Brand X" or "Brand T" trucks...LOL :sneaky:
|
Yes, there are pro's and cons to every truck or car, but is there a truck/car that is absolutely perfect? No.
|
well i was planning on the 4-link since its on the full scale but ive decided on the ford body since it looked better than the chevy
ive git the design finallized and some other little stuff im cutting the chassis tomorrow and deciding on the motor position and how im gonna make the axle probly going to see machine shop and seeing if my teachers or the seniors can weld up my chassis since i cant cut it out of one piece on the plasma cam ill try and get some pix up as soon as i get it cut and fabricated |
That would be a fun class! Like Primus said though there will unfortunatly not be many for racing but still, would be neet to see a class run.
|
i figure if i build one and leave it t my LHS for a few days everyone who sees it will want one so we might get a class going
my chassis should be completly ready by friday and then ill have to finalize my rollcage and axle and a-arms and have them made up im hoping its done for december |
another quick question anyone know were i can get plans for a solid rear axle? i cant find any and dont kno how to deisign my own

If you can find a copy of a tamiya TXT-1 TLT-1 or Juggernaut you can get some design ideas.
Or you just buy the completed axle on ebay and design your chassis around it, its what most of the Custom Crawler guys do. a quick google turned this up http://myrcmt.com/review/kjrtire/spider_files/gears.jpe Heres the one off the tamiya High lift http://www.tamiyausa.com/images/prod...58372/axle.jpg |
