but you're a total tool constantly referring to yourself in the 3rd person. you probably don't even own an r/c and are beating behind the bush on mommys pc.
The funny part is, ThunderbirdJunkie is aligned with you politically.
You're a crappy Libertarian if you judge one solely on one aspect of their social interaction on an internet forum. Try going outside and getting some sun
It'll make you feel better. Really.
If you're seriously going to go out of your way to go off topic to insult somebody on a toy car forum, perhaps it is
you that doesn't even own an RC and is "beating behind the bush" on mommy's computer...whatever that means
Seriously, try to make some sense when you post. Just because it's something your older brother who's a Junior (UPPERCLASSMAN! TOTALLY COOL!) in high school said doesn't mean it's smart or even funny.
More to the point, none of the posts ThunderbirdJunkie has seen you make in this thread pertain to the SC10 4x4...or RC at all...so where are you
really going with this?

If you run a stick pack in the truck, there is no need for the chassis brace at all.
I dont know what is up with the a arms, but the second set f stock a arms have not bowed on my truck. With that said, I did go ahead and by the RPM a arms, and they seem to be better.
It is easy to be a back seat driver, a monday morning quarterback.... just saying.
You're absolutely right. They have chassis braces.
BECAUSE OF THE FLAT CHASSIS with very little support otherwise.
In case you haven't noticed, AE's SC10 4x4's chassis is
not flat. Show ThunderbirdJunkie an RC that
has a chassis that
isn't flat that
requires a brace to
prevent the drivetrain from coming apart under normal use.
Seriously, do you people even think before you post stupid shit like this?

no matter how well something is built, people will want more....
Yet, we're not using a chassis brace to enhance performance...the chassis brace is being used to
prevent the belt from coming off. That is
far different from modifying for performance...it's modifying to fix something that should've never been wrong in the first place.
