Guys I had a cool idea. In 3 weeks they start a season down the road of A local 4x4 club that holds mud bogs at the local fire department. Real trucks not RC..


Anyways, They have some really nice truck that enter the bi-weekly event and usually have 20-30 trucks and I am going to head up there and see if they will let me run my MT in the 100ft long mudd pit. ITS SLOPPY but I think I will do fine.


Anyone think its crazy? If they let me do it, then I want to see if they will let me pay the entry fee and compete with the real trucks. 12-20 sec run times from what I can remember. I think the MT can do it in 9-12 from the 40ft take off.


Any ideas for a 28.5cc / TGn sidepipe running stock MT Tires? Wondering if I could get me a new set of tires for a deal so I can run new ones. So, if You have a deal on some MT's (I have new rims) shoot me a PM.


The video will be awsome. Wanna put 2 camera's on the run. 1 in the truck and 1 on the line of FLIGHT! :D
 
I think as fast as my 28.8 is with the TGN pipe IT SHOULD


Glide across the top.(hopefully) :D

make sure your servos and rx are as water proof has you can, something i do to help with the servos is i buy plasti-dip in a spray can and spray 3-5 layers on it and put o-rings on the outbut shaft with grease
 
Thanks for the tip


Never though of the O rings;)


I will take a video when it happens. :) :D

OY YEAH, GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Hey why not make a snorkel out of abs pipe for the air filter? That's how they do it around here with 1.1's. I was thinking 2" and face the inlet to the rear.
 
Something a lot of us do with chevron tires on Maxxes is switch the chevron "V" to point backwards instead of forwards. It makes the forward bite more like a paddle or scoop. I think on the Ramp you can swap L and R sides but if not you can take the tires off the rim and face them the other way.
 
Thanks guys!


I was thinking of doing a 3" stack alreay. I figure with the 2" I would not get a full backdraft from the pipe facing the rear. So, I will try and run it a few times on a some high speed bursts to try it out.


All help is welcomed and appreciated! Any more idea's I would be happy to hear them.

I was thinking that if you cut out every other stack on the Rampage MT tires, that you would get a something like paddle tires. Is this a good idea?
 
not gonna happen, i race in the mud and unless its smooth you will be upside down the first 44 in. bogger track you come to,
