Sold all my nitros off (finally! :roll: ), and bought myself a brand spankin' new E-Revo. I've wanted one of these for ages now. It just shipped out this morning, and I should have it in my hands monday. Others at the top of the list of must haves are a Summit, and ofcourse a sweet Clod. Anyone lend me about $1200?? :lol: I'll post up some pics when it arrives, and after I clean up the drool on the floor.

Congrats man! Make sure to show us some pics when it arrives. It will look like a black sheep among all of your Clods though...
:lol:

hey guys...had to post this up on another forum, so thought i' share this here as well...

this helps to brace the chassis and rear bulkhead and help prevent the chassis from snapping...


here's some pics...the 6-32 threaded rod is inside the aluminum tubing...originally i just had the threaded rod only, but after a few jumps, it was tweaked at about a 150degree angle, so i put the aluminum tubing over it for more bracing...was kinda trippy to see it, as i never woulda thought the chassis would flex that much without breaking itself or the rear bulkhead...the green end is just a ball end, and the yellow end is a rod end from a clodbuster...a shoulder screw from a clod knuckle fits PERFECTLY into the clod rod end and the revo's rear shock tower mount...i just used the stock revo shock screws to hold the piece of aluminum plate in...

as you can see, the screw i have holding the green ball end has started to tweak a little...

Why the brushed version you ask? Well, Price was great, not really a fan of Castle Creations, and if I do go brushless I have some nice electronics for a clod build. :)

Motor's are now properly broken in, and have installed the long rocker kit. Here's a little comparison without a squat drop.

Took the thing out for a run with the long rockers on, and good thing I bought me a wheely bar! Boy does this thing boogie. Managed to blow a rubber boot off, and blew a tire. All in all I'm loving this thing! :)
