I absolutely loved reading through the evolution of this rig and to hear how you learned new things as you went along. Keep it up!

AX10 Scorpion RTR turned NMRCC Trail Class Build
- Thread starter Chingon
- Start date
I had another competition on March 23rd, and as I posted in my 1.9 Trail Class thread, it was a good turnout. No changes to the truck other than putting it back on the old Moab tires since the Ruptures are illegal in the class now. I want to pick a set of the 5.25" Tusks, but they have been back ordered for a while.
The truck did really well and the courses seemed to suit me pretty well. I ended up with 3rd place and got to set one of the courses (Course 3) for the first time, which also ended up being the hardest of the day and only half of the competitors were able to finish it. The first course I only had 1 reverse against me, but I wasted a lot of time recovering from a roll without a penalty and had to skip the last bonus that I could of made because I didn't have time for it. The second course I only had two reverses against me and I decided to skip the last bonus because I wasn't sure if I could make it and it had the potential to seriously ruin my run. Screwing around afterwards, I was able to get it on my 4th attempt, so a good call to skip it probably during my run. The final course I set, you were doing pretty good if you could just finish it without pointing or timing out. I tagged a few gates and skipped a bonus, but I was able to get a finish.

Enjoyed reading about the build thread. I have 2 of these AX10s and in between other projects, I have been working on one and seeing how it goes.
Thanks! They are a little long in the tooth, but still a relevant platform performance-wise.
