    Default Shoei1 Super? What!?!?

    So I got this crazy idea to build a super.

    18 inch wheel base

    Well the plan
    -WK axels with extenders
    -Axial trans(x2)
    -novak 18.5(x2)
    -novak goat(x2)
    -custom chassis
    -custom links
    -stick radio

    I still need
    - 1 Goat esc
    -extenders
    -wheels and tires
    So if anyone has those let me know and we can work a deal.

    So here is a drawing of the plan. Let me know if you think I may have some problems with my idea. I know its a lil out of the box.
    BTW this is a drawing of a lower 3 link set up. It would be the same for the rear.

    neat... I wonder how that driveline angle will work? Also, will your uppers clear the spur gear and motor?

    I might have a goat ESC for you. I killed the motor but I'm pretty sure the ESC is fine
    Catch me if you can...

    well I need to fab up the lower link to figure out the uppers. Im sure I can make the upper links work. Im actually more concerned with the shock mounts.

    Jake that would be awesome to get that esc and ya I dont need the motor I have 2 18.5 motors.

    cool, I'll wire it up when I get back from Motorama and make sure it works. What do you have planned for tires?

    Nothing for tires at the moment. Im really trying to keep this cheep. So anything I can use just to see if it works and if I like how it works I will spend some money on a good wheel and tire combo.

    Also no rush on the ESC I still need to make the chassis and links.

    Very cool concept.. althought I dont think the axles will hold up to the 40 series tires and the abuse that super rigs take!
    But... you'll never know until you try, right! This is gonna be sweet either way Tyler!
