Yep, I pulled the trigger on another buggy. Since i received the 3s from @bicketybam, I've found myself wanting to stunt less, and run the tracks more. I have three tracks to run at, only one where the 3s won't get killed. So I'm building a 6s to take to the other two tracks. Let's begin. First, thanks to @joostin420 for helping me to score a sweet deal.

As of today, the build includes:
-GKA chassis braces & servo mount
-Full swap of Fast Eddy sealed bearings
-Arrma dif cup in the center, filled with a 200k/500k hybrid mix (mostly 200 with a jelly bean sized scoop of 500k)
-60k front, 30k rear, factory shimmed
-Hot Racing suspension mounts all the way around. Likely upgrade to Voltage or CRCU in the future, but these were bought locally, and should help to keep things in check during my preliminary outings
-M2C Racing shock stand offs (front only)
-Tactic radio and receiver (on order from Jennys)
-Animos 25kg servo
-button head droop screws
-Speed pinion installed
-RPM skid plate

Waiting on:
T Bone Typhon basher bumper. All necessary screw heads to fill the counter sinks in the chassis already made.

Future considerations:
-M2C Typhon chassis and shock towers
-RPM arms

Can't wait to see the outcome Bam.?
Bam??? Now that is gonna rub him the wrong way. No one would ever confuse Notorious J for the dashingly handsome @bicketybam!?

? sorry, had saw the start of your thread, and went on a Typhon shopping spree, then came back with a brain fart.??? OMG that's funny
I was probably thinking @bicketybam & @Notorious J are the two guys that constantly break the sh!t outa their trucks. ??? God I'm dying over here. Give me a break I'm only a quarter of a cup of coffee in. ?
 
Very nice @Notorious J !! Can't wait to see the finished results!! If I may I would recommend that I didn't see listed, is possibly those Rear A Arm/driveshaft protectors. What a huge difference in regards of one of the rear wheels locking up being stuck by a lodged rock!!! Doesn't seem to mess with the aerodynamics or with jumping, that I noticed!

I'm in the process of making some out of some light sheet metal. I thought the exact same thing about debris getting tossed around back there. Hopefully they don't look too home made when I'm done?

The tie wrap around the motor is holding a piece of a backflip tire. That's my home made solution to supporting the motor. Works well on my Notorious, so should be fine here too.
 
Hell yea @Notorious J , that is looking good! I am really diggin those Rear Guards, bro! keep up the great work!!
I'll be keeping a close eye on them. Being sheet metal, if they bend, they'll wreak havoc in that area. But now I have a template that I can use to create something out of plastic. Thanks for the props???
