MY INTERLOCK COURSE CHALLENGE

This is my revised backyard course with added challenges:


first up is the cable bridge,

seems easy but you have to align your wheels on approach or else. . . .

next is the 50degree wooden bridge ascend,

super slippery. . .

then the 60degree cable bridge descend,

a bit difficult if you don't have drag brake or worm gears. . . your rig will topple. .

the log bridge crossing

need to align wheels to the crooked log or you'll slip and fall off

bridge-interlock crossover climb


a tricky ascent. . . careful not to bind your axles on the interlock edges

60 degree interlock descend

slowly or your rig will end up upside down. . .

interlock bridge


go over and under





REVERSE COURSE
60degree cable bridge ascend,

d@mn difficult. . . bridge swinging, and you need to go full throttle while
steering left and right for tire grip.

aaaaaaahhhh!!!!! . . . . . made it. . . .


video coming soon. . . .

it's possible. . . .

drift track. . . . can't. . . my area is all interlocks. . .

sad part is. . . i might shift next year. . . .

WOW.
That's brilliant!

About the drift track, yeah Chardiboi is right, it won't go very well. I drift on the SAME surface everyday.
I've had to trim my shells side skirts and front bumper so it doesn't flip over continuosly.
It's not too bad, but it's no fun, not consistent at all.

Good part is, I'm moving/shifting next year...Hopefully it's got a nice and smooth surface so I can setup a track

@Chardiboi, don't that track go real high at certain places? You might hurt your electrics if you fall off...

AdBull.

LOL...your wife must be super-impressed with her backyard :-)

J, I normally end up crawling when I am drunk.....or falling...

That course looks tough.....the other day I pushed the 'add to cart' on the Joker Chassis.....and some shocks, and some wheels, and some shafts and some axle lockouts. Re-built the CR-01 axles, and the R2 tranny....now all I need are some tires......

It better bloody go through that course of yours, or I am going to be ticked off...

just ADD to CART? when will you push checkout or buy now?

don't worry dude, the course isn't that tough. . . i bet your rig will go through it easily. . .it's a bit challenging though. . . you need to find good approaches. . . .

Richard,

I see you finally came right with the lexan side panel!

Hmmm really like the main sponsor!

yeah, i got it from DMG, the guy i ordered the chassis from. . . . got it with the ESC guard for free,. . . just paid 7$ for shipping

didn't install the esc guard though. . . it's a bit large. . .

sweet deal! thats a bargain man!

if you not gonna use the guard what you gonna do to protect the ESC now?

i improvised a bit. . . i'll let you see this weekend . . . . and would you believe i got it from Day to day. . . . .

cool! i like improvisation.....waiting to see what you have done!
