Thank you. That Gen 7 is the first crawler I ever bought. It has evolved over the last 5 years into what it is today. It has won the last three competitions that I entered it in at CrasnN Bash Hobbies in Cedar Rapids. I would like to travel with it and see how it stacks up against other comp trucks around the country.

Nice tires man, they look pretty decent even for injora made. If it were me I would of paired em with some brass wheels to help keep em planted and prevent that torque twist. Its unreal what a bit of weight on the lowest widest place and do for the rig. Just did a vid on the C10 with new brass and its night and day when it comes to traction and staying planted. Got an older vid with just the alumium wheels if you want to compare :)

The front wheels have brass ring centers. It is a pretty pinned down rig. 😀 It won the only comp I ever entered it in easily. When I do competitions I generally only do 1/10.

Glads are 345grams the Kanga Ax24 are around 295 and the C10s are the same ish as the JLU around 280 per set.

Thank you. : ) I figure if Rory can show 12 minutes of his front tire driving over rocks and have a successful channel, it wouldn't hurt to take you along with me on testing days. 🙂
I could barely hear you with it turned up all the way.
Damn brother! Way to break in to action! Glad ur ok man. Had a venom pro2 for a long time now luckily no big probs. But the first time i used it somehow it charged a 3s to 13.6 volts i saw it and turned it off. I was nu to hobby but i swear all settings were spot on. I was very meticulous about it being I was new to the hobby read, watched and checked everything again and again nervously before I started my 1st charge. Never figured that one out.
Sounds like we both got lucky 😀
Add deep disk rims,take care of the turning being the tires from your rods
Awesome video of you and your dad out crawling - thanks for some Mini love from Iowa, great to meet you and your dad, take care brother!
Awesome place to be crawling at! Musta been some good times :)
That is Mini Moab. It is the eastern Phoenix spot to go apparently. Anytime I can hang out with my dad is a good day. 🙂
That was some pretty good crawling, other than wheels & tires it looks pretty stock.
Well that's pretty cool because they are 1.9 beadlocks with Rover (Red) tires. 😉 They hook.
Lovely upload my friend, place looks amazing!
Utb seems to be perfect for these types of hikes, not too big but not a 24th which would be just too small to keep up. Twisty lil rig too, makes for some smooth crawls! Noooice!
I gained a new appreciation for it. It is very capable and durable. It rolled down a few cliffs on the trip. It survived three days in the desert without breaking anything. I thought it would have broken the first day. The only thing wrong with it after continueous abuse is a bent right front stub axle. It is still perfectly drivable. 😎 I wish I could have brought my 1:10 Capra to Arizona but it wouldn't fit in my luggage. This is exactly what I bought it for. It was pretty great. : )
