I'm thinking it'll be kinda fun in the sand ..... rollin buggy style :buggy1:

It could end up being too squirrelly :marshall: If so I'll just put the drivelines and diff back in. :cheers:

Yep .... Kinda a Razorback look. :thumbup:

It shouldn't throw very much sand into the chassis.
 
thats awsome lookin....i like what youve done to the front wheels. nice rides. looks like its gonna be a nice sand dunner :hammer:
 
when I took my tmaxx to the dunes in pismo (ca) I ran paddles on all 4 tires, it shot big rooster tails, but it was slow. I put some bowties on the front, it made it alot more fun, and a touch faster...(running it in 4wd still) I later was told to try and running the paddles backwards so that you dont get the retension of the sand, but you get the benifit of the paddle. I dunno if its true, but I will def. try it when I go again..

I've been down to Pismo a few times to go dirtbiking and have seen a few people there with rcs. I want to bring my maxx down there, but i think the sand would kill a lot of moving parts, and i dont want to wrench while I'm down there...
