Jammin X1x CRT
Bought it as a extremely beat up roller
Slapped a Mamba Monster 2200kv combo(had it laying around from my savage I took it out of, had to find something to put it in ) in it with a rc-monster motor mount set. Running on 4S I can pop wheelies on demand at any point during its acceleration(even 80% throttle).
Battery trays were made from 2 Stampede chassis's
This is probably the fastest RC I own currently, and can easily be geared up to be faster (like it originally was) seeing I geared it as low as I could.
I've replaced the wing since the pics with a black one (that one in the pic was dyed black and you can see the white scratches)

Edit uploaded the pic of before I put its wheels on prior to its 1st run(just found it)

yes i made it. Using 5/32" carbon fiber tube, 4-40 rods &amp; tie-rod ends, nylon bellcranks, and a modified 1/24 scale model car tire. The upper bar was adjustable, which allowed me to lower or raise the bar about 3/4" or so.

It unfortunately got destroyed the first time the truck took a tumble. Have a new, stronger one in the works.

Couldn't say from stock nitro, but I find the handling is pretty good with the motor upfront. Its actually seems to be pretty balanced left to right, and front to back with the 2 lipos on in the back on both sides.

will do..but its gonna look pretty much the same. Just bigger diameter solid carbon rods this time, and aluminum bellbranks instead of the nylon.

Just curious, I saw a picture of the Losi Strike awhile back and it made me wonder how much motor position affected handling on an electric.
