Another productive evening. I got all the cross supports/panel mounts done and the body fitted onto the chassis.

I also go the new tie rod made..

Here are new fantom blitz 35t motors--best motor I have ran so far.

I got the pigtails made/soldered onto the new motors. Got them mounted/backlash set. So thats done

I also managed to get one panel cut before I ran outa steam.

One thing that I am pretty mad about is the fact I ordered a new punk dig switch for it on monday and the damn thing has not even been shipped yet. I am pretty dissapointed there.

So as soon as I got home from work friday I dug into the rig. The plan was to get kyles ready and mine.

Well this was taken at 1am saturday morning

Kyle couldn't get any paint on his way to my place so the panels for the comp on saturday had to go clear. The side panels are temp to make it legal.

And here they were ready to get up at 4:30 am to head to rimrock for the comp.

So I am waiting for kyle to get get me the paint he wants and the punk dig switch so I can put all of his electronics into it.

But kyle was totaly stoked and had probably the best time he has ever had at a comp. He was ALLLL smiles...
