DURATRAX® WELCOMES AUSTIN “GATEKEEPER” DUNN —
AND UNVEILS NEW GATEKEEPER™ R/C CRAWLING PRODUCTS

Austin Dunn is a world-class competitor in R/C rock crawling. Known as “the Gatekeeper”, this 29-year-old Alabama native has been racking up an impressive list of accomplishments with his innovative crawler chassis designs and modifications — a list that already includes nine “firsts” in just the past two years.

Dunn now shares his winning ways with other serious R/C rock crawling enthusiasts through new DuraTrax “GateKeeper” products. Only in this exclusive line will you find competition-ready kits and accessories personally designed by one of the most respected crawlers on the planet!

First comes the GateKeeper Mini GC-3 Chassis Kit, with everything you need to turn your Losi Mini Rock Crawler into an unbeatable 1.9 crawler. The kit has already been proven a winner: Dunn recently crawled to a podium finish in the 2009 R/C Rock Crawling World Championships using this very set-up.

The Mini GC-3 Chassis Kit features gunmetal gray chassis side plates, an axle-mounted servo plate (for standard or mini servos), and rear axle link plate — all manufactured from high-quality, CNC-machined, T6 6061 aluminum.

Also included are strong, anodized aluminum lower links and chassis braces; a low-friction Delrin skid plate to cover the entire bottom of your chassis; high-quality rod ends and rod end balls; adjustable body mount supports and a hardware package.

Join Austin Dunn on the winner’s platform with the GateKeeper GC-3 Chassis and additional GateKeeper products coming soon. Watch for them at your favorite hobby retailer!

Austin is one heck of a driver that is for sure. I have crawled with him over in Alabama a few times, he is a great guy. I am not a fan of Duratrax, but I will take a chance and pick up one of these chassis and build a 1.9 comp rig.
