I have been running this for a couple weeks tested it on an outdoor track with huge jumps works great.
Are you using fuel tubing as an uptravel limiter?

Near perfect weekend of racing at Round 6 of the FORCE Series. With just 1 battery pack and 2 tanks of practice, I TQ'd Truggy and E-Buggy. I qualified 3rd in Pro Buggy due to several traction rolls. I went on to win Truggy and Ebuggy and finished 2nd in Pro Buggy. The INTECH BR-6E was on rails and super easy to drive. I lead every lap of the 10 minute main. In Nitro, I tangled up with 2nd at the start and dropped to last, but worked back up to 2nd by the 20 min mark and stayed there for the last 10 minutes. Billy Easton took the win. The track was super grooved up and smooth as glass.

I don't think the truggy will happen. Gene has mentioned 1/10 buggies they are working on.

Yeah, i know it's Agama.
I thought I heard or seen where Intech just may release a truggy. Maybe it was a dream of mine.....lol
Popularity isn't the greatest though.

I am going to keep racing the Agama truggy until INTECH makes one. But they have no plans to make one even though all the USA drivers would love one. Truggy is only popular in the USA.

I wonder what it would take to make a truggy based on the buggy parts.

Chassis, arms, tie rods and camber rods, possibly extra chassis bracing, longer driveshafts, longer rear center drive shaft, bigger fuel tank and lots of testing.
I'm sure gearing change could be done right on the spur gear. Wouldn't take much overall.

They already make a 13t and 48 spur, so just the other things would be needed.

I'm just saying that lot of that can be made here in the U.S. and sold as a kit. Cost is the main factor as anything is. I know a company that can produce molds for lower quantities pretty cheap. They won't be able to run millions of parts but there is no need for that.

Just a thought. Most of the parts are already done.

Man Im dying to get my car on the track. Have not run outdoors since October. Was planning on racing this weekend but this winter storm is heading right my way and looking to dump a lot of snow in my area. So now it maybe a few weeks till it dries up. Getting tired of running 1/10 2wd buggy indoor lol

You can look at it this way. We will have some setup options for you by the time you get it on the track!
