The grill really makes it pop, looks good with all the stickers on it! :love:
Thanks! I was trying to beat the rain and was rushing so I forgot to lower the rear for a better picture. hahaha
Now it's raining!:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Stance is spot on ah'd say!
Thank you!
The way I see it is,
If it was someone else's rig I would be like "eh it's ok"
But it's like weed...I grew it and all of a sudden it's the best stuff ever!:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Got the new Derecho out for it's 1st proper off road bash today after work 😃 All I can say is- wow!!!! So planted & those knockoff mojave tires are killer for the terrain @ my local spot!! Just glides everywhere, even over the grass. In love with my new buggy!🥰

Finished getting my Typhon set up as a street truck and I think I'm in love! 🤣 I know why I see so many on this board have 2+ of the same rig.👍 Its going to be so hard to resist getting another Typhon.

Question: Running 25/42 gearing currently on a 1650kv Hobbystar 4082 motor with 1/8 buggy tires about 4.5 inches tall. How many teeth will I need to go up on the 42/100 GRP's? I have pinions up to 30t right now so I can go up as many as 5, will order 31t and bigger if necessary.

Also, is there any benefit for performance if I get the Limitless towers and shocks or is that more of a cosmetic thing? Not focusing on speed runs, just general street bashing. Just curious if it would have a different feel with Limitless towers/shocks.
Cant wait to bash with this tomorrow!😎

Love it!! Really like the paint dude, well done 🥰 When I put the limitless towers/shocks on my street basher typhon I thought it really helped keeping the power down to the ground by eliminating a lot of the body roll thru the corners. Maybe just me but being able to pin it coming out of a corner was just awesome- thought it looked like a little f1 car zipping by 😃😍

Can't make a Coors Light one....too much water in that sh!t, it'll mess up the electronics!! 😂🤣🍻✌️

Nice build! you would need to go up to a 29t pinion to have the same speed as with the buggy tires. That will literally be like the same speed.

Thanks! Ran it with the stock Katars Saturday & found out I need a better parking lot. Too many light poles and curbs in the one I was at, lol.

Busted the suspension arm mount on a curb.😖 Didn't hit it super hard but it was a cheap ebay aluminum piece. Hot Racing replacement is on the way.

Will get the 29t put on this week. Already found a much better parking lot without all the light poles and curbs! 🤣
