Some really nice work. :mrgreen:
G4 is great to work with, especially when trying to make stuff that always doesn't work out the first time around (cheap to toss and start over). I used to use it first time around, and use the finalized version as a template for the CF version.

I did a new straighter chassis some suspension work, and a fresh bit of paint for the Hank Perry 240 up in Spokane It has been 20 yrs since i raced there. they had a fresh new track and driver stand. Qualified 6th in the A, and ended up 5th after three mains. Best run was 3rd in the 2nd rnd. Mite have pulled off a 3rd or 4th overall but had some serious dildo turnmarshals and stayd on my lid for half a lap till someone finally looked over and saw me. my set up had too much steering. as I made small changes she got better and better. I started the event by plugging my batt in backwards..pffft i havent done that dumb beaner mistake in a while.

That looks awesome. With bracing like that, you could actually do away with the tub and make a chassis out of a narrower strip of G10.

Very nice truck and it looks like it's dialed! I was at that track in Spokane in April and then a week before the Hank, hoping to get in a few laps of practice. Track was still being built both times :roll: ,wast of time for me. Seven hour drive with 3 cars and charged lipos. Oh well! :| Some friends went down from Calgary to the Hank. Mark Huges raced his T4, not sure what class. He may have raced with you!

Can you give us your setup on the 10T? Where you from Sancho?

Ontario OR is home base race in boise area. We got a Pro race this weekend. I put in a stock gear box to use the newer slipper. She lacked a little grunt from the RPM i was using. when rolling it would pull the front off the ground with ease. I slide the rear blocks back and had run it that way for awhile. The track was so much diff than i was used to. I spaced the axle forward which put it just back of half way and wrked better. i had lightened oil all around to give a liitle more suspension action. Even though the track was hard packed the 8th scale really tears stuff up. (When I got Home I bought A MBX6) oh back to truck. a few more runs and it would have gotten to a better set. If i can figure how to get the RPM gear on the Newer shaft i think that would be badd A$$. I painted all my rigs back to My 90s color scheme Little bit of accent changes. . Then I painted all my rigs to Match (SC10, Jammin Corr, rc8E and mbx6)...OH YA
