Well, i started out looking for a nitro truck, so after researching and talking with MiRatlhed , i purchased ashort WB revo 3.3 from him. I have done some mods, adding a swaybar system, a wing mount with wing and a new lid.
reworked the shocks and added two more sets of tires and wheels for different apps. I have now added yet another revo 3.3 to the stable. its pure stock right now I cant wait to start modding this one we have bad weather tonight but after i clean it and have good sunny weather i will get pics up of them both got it just in time for the fall points series w/ no limit R/C of florida and will be racing both in the small block class Last edited by CPH extreme; 08-21-2010 at 06:08 PM.

took the stock revo out for a run today...
its time to MOD the thing.... drives total different then the one w/ my race set-up I have started the MOD list, I just dont know what to do first. my first two choice's (mainly due to money) 1)remove the EZ start and put on roto-start back plate and drive wand or 2)Sway-bar's? Either one gonna cost me about $25 |

Sway Bars get my vote.
![]() I have a new Tiger Drive for a Traxxas engine I paid $20 for it so I will do that price shipped. The package is opened because I thought the old guy at the LHS sold me the one for a Ofna Hyper like I wanted but he sold me the wrong one. I don't have any Traxxas engines anymore so i don't need it.

i was sold a tiger drive for a 3.3 but its not even close to a traxxas motor.
and not long after i got it the LHS closed down. if i can find it i will send you a pic and measurement maybe it will work for you and we can work out a deal |

If it has a part number on it send that as well, I got the one for the Ofna but I have a couple more engines here I might be able to use it on. I have a OS .18 and a OS .30 so maybe...

Here's a pic of my first revo. its ready for the fall points series coming up.
thanks to the help of 93-306 and MiRatlhed hopefully i can drive the truck better than the last race. now that i feel i got the shocks and swaybars dialed in, it should be a rocket |

That is cool you like it, we sit together and brain storm over ideas. I told him to add a text box with "Racing" or "Race Team" underneath that one and he came up with mounting them on a sign post.
You can still have some changes made Jeff if you like, just whip him up a email. He is all back into creating things again now that his online school is over for the summer. Regular school starts back up here on Sept. 8th. So I am gong to be learning how to do this also so we both can work on ideas together. I am glad you like!! He really enjoyed doing it for you and liked the reasoning behind the logo idea.

I could not choose just one , so i had my family look at them and the really liked this one, I would not change the design at all, only change might be color's, my best friend finally got his new PC done and loaded all his vinyl graphic's programs , So now i can take the body over and check out colors on the white body. Then i'll get my screens for the screen printing machine
and make some shirts |
