Thought ide show my basher project thats nearing completion. Features home made widened carbon lower deck, added carbon upper deck, Home made carbon motor mount, Speed Passion Silver Arrow 6.5R ESC/motor combo, two x Enrichpower 5200 35c.
Its on its second esc/motor after i fried the first set *sob*. Not sure why that happened either over geared or shorted out the motor terminals.
Decided to lock the center diff as i could only fit the brake discs to the front side , and i find it more fun to bash (wheelies n endoes).

Decided to put this up for sale if anyones interested, yet to work out a price but it will be without Radio, batteries, body and possible reciever. It was a custom project i did when i was injured and couldnt work, and has been sitting in the cupboard since september last year.

mine's a carbon plate formed into a right angle, drilled, and a semicircular section on the motors underside supporting it. I tried to find a big bit of angle aluminium but failed.
