Default My Budget tm2

My take on the tm2, using saddles as I don't have a shortly.

Work in progress, have still to do a front brace and finish shaping the chassis.







x2c front end and x4pro rear end with minimal disruption to the original parts. the rear diff housing had to be dremalled inside to allow the diff to be flipped.

What material did you use for the chassis and is it strong considering no top deck to limit bend or flex

3mm grp, seems quite strong and I've now fitted a top deck. As there was a little flex.

Car felt great after changing to a thicker shock oil, 45wht all round, blue front springs and red rear springs (ansmann)
Could have pushed harder but was still seeing what I could do, unfortunately in the final I power wheelied it up the straight, off a jump and ended up being stranded on the roof at the end of the straight and then getting hit at full speed, side on, it did break a driveshaft but proved the chassis has strength.
Will be putting it, through its paces this coming Friday once again.
Oh and I'm now using a slightly modded x4pro she'll.
