The Wookies Jato 2.5

[CertifiedMike]

A few minor touches left. Front shocks, brakes, servos etc. My nitro stampede i modded a header to run a pipe out the back. Toying with the idea on here too. Just need an exhaust deflector to get the last inch or so.

Custom right rear tire heater/oiler!!! This could ONLY get more fun if it was doing 70mph!!!
When you said you did a rear exhaust, I thought you put a stinger pipe on it.
Make sure you post pics when you work it all out!

I would if it wasn't for oil. Kinda makes a mess.

Keeps the chassis rust free tho!

....and, if set up correctly, will help you to get away, during those hostile car chases.

Nitro lines and heat shields in. Getting a big ol jug of alcohol this weekend with a glow igniter.

Gonna rob the servos off other cars as well as a reciever.

Just make sure your brake is working good

Also, the car desperately needed the sway bar installed. I think all the sway bar parts were there in those bags. If you turn it at any kind of speed it just collapsed towards the outside of the turn and began cartwheeling. Even with the sway bar, I can't imagine it would turn without wiping out unless you dropped below 30mph or even less. She's a handful!

I'm used to a stampede. 20mph and under turns unless on a slippery surface.

I should probably put the brake back on it. On the list for tomorrow. I am getting the double disc when money allows.


Probably throw this in the backpack and run my crawler to my current compound you showed you before. Then throw it back in tge pack pack and run the crawler home.

You should run the exhaust straight up like a deisel stack.

If i get that rc10 6x6 I will put stacks on it when i nitro convert it.

Butter smooth braking.

 

[Doom!]

What kind of butter? probably apple butter.

Plastic shock towers, fuel tank, and the charging adapter will be delivered today. On the way home I'm getting some fuel, a glowplug igniter, a jato body, and trx summit yellow paint. I think i need a reciever and 2 servos after this. But I'm impatient and gonna steal those off another car. I can smell the nitro in the air.

 

[Doom!]

Put a lid on that nitro, must be evaporating pretty quickly if you can smell it in the air.

Mr postal delivered these so today they go on. Thursday I'm hoping the closest hobby shop has fuel. The gold screws are wrong. They are for the wing.

Why is all that stuff still in bags? Slacker!

Chances are if it's bagged it's easier to find!

But if its stored in sealed jars, it stays fresher.
