Is this one man show Dave? lol Poor dude bump lol
#18
Will the Traxxas funny car rear tires fit on it?
#19
Lol, don't worry about it. I mostly do it for myself, and I'm pretty stoked how it's turning out. I like to document my build, and if I go to sell it I can link this thread.
Every time I post something new this thread gets a hundred or more views so I figure I'll keep at it.
Maybe. I thought about them, but I think the offset might be too much. The traction will also be much, much better with these tires.

Good point. I know it is close to the offset of the XO-1 wheels, but i think it is a 14 mm hex.

That will look pretty cool with that Chevy II body in a close up. Definitely subscribed for that.

I've used spaz stix mirror chrome with success in the past, but sometimes their rattle cans are spotty. It was expensive body, don't want to screw it up.
I'm also planning on using the traxxas drag timer just for fun. I've actually been wanting to get one to use for tuning my 1/5 scale. you can use both lanes timers in one lane to collect more acceleration data.

I heard you about the paint. I am not good at all with it. I have used Spaz Stix solid colors, but I am leaning toward picking up a paint gun. I have been reading up on liquid mask because that seems to be the way the pros are doing it. We will see what happens in the new year with my hobby fund.

What does it look like from the side?
#30
No, I'm taking my sweet time. I can only paint body once, I want to look into getting it professionally done, but last time I had bodies painted I got ripped off hard.
I'm also will deciding on motor and speed control. I will probably go with locked rear diff.
I just want this as perfect as a dumb traxxas can be. I'm just taking time. I'm confused about what to do as far as transmission case, and is mid motor stupid idea. Also looking into dragster wheels. I'm kind or scared to glue the 3d printed ones.
