Doesn't that partially defeat the purpose of moving the motor forward?

Don't bother me with your logical arguments Mr. Spock

I’m glad I purchased a kit from Jeff when I had a chance. It’s been stashed since September-24, but with the current situation there’s no excuse not to build. Initially I was going for a MIP Legends feel with a powder coated chassis, but now I’m just going with a gold pan. Haven’t decided how to ori...

"fixed" the world's worst running JRX (that somehow isn't winning POS of the month) hopefully this time at least 1 camera will work.

Well it was more my wife but we finally got around to doing some sublimation prints and they turned out ok! Pretty amazing technology. This really opens up some possibilities

Plus, I when I add things...

Rear Stealth Transmission build! Neat seeing the belt drive on there. (I didn't know about the after market third party conversion kits till I got this car, and came here and read about it. So, I feel a bit bad about having this kind of weird counterfeit-yet-official car. But, I always wanted a 4WD ...

Other side with the 81 Tooth spur gear and the slipper clutch. I'm going to pair it with a 18t pinion gear, see how that works out.

The two transmissions, together! Ready to rule the track as ... uh...father and son? ...

Front end is tight! Has a lot of stuff crammed in there.
