It's always fun driving around a bare bones chassis, isn't it? Something about seeing it move under it's own power for the first time. Cool.

Yes they are. In 1/14 scale that is only a 3.5in wide arm. I want to be sure this thing will hold up over time.

It will hold up and also look good. Some people don't use heavy enough material and it just don't look right. But if I know you this thing will look and perform great.

Great work Travis
I have been too busy at work and have not kept up with all the action on this thread. I think work will slow now and I can spend more time watching your build, keep the updates coming.
