Still a work in progress but its built and running
Dingo kit
Found a small rock pile near the train tracks down the street
After first round of upgrades.
Plasti-dipped electronics, Axial Aluminum servo horn, Vanquish Products Stage 1 kit, Currie titanium tie rod and drag link.
A few of the Treasure coast scalers at house of refuge in Stuart Florida
trimmed and ready for paint (also going to lower the body mounts a few notches- it rubbed with the stock fenders, but with the dingo flares, it's got WAY more clearance)
Painted the wheels silver so they'll do till I can find cheap silver 8 holes
latest shot, more to come later today after i get the mail and more goodies
scale replica build is complete
Just a few more touches (Crawler-Dad LED light bar and rock lights), hitec servo and bec and it'll be finished
And some of the Treasure Coast Scalers
Family photos
Ran my first scaler comp yesterday and thanks to steelerzman for the pics

Ready at the start gate
Managed to pull the shock out of the shock tower which required a trip to the pits, you can see it's not there in this pic
Through 1 of the tunnels
Then managed to strip the panhard mount free 2-3 times i think which all required trips back to the pits and finally ended up just HD Zip Tying it to get me to finish
Trying to square up for the bridge and failling
but it made for an interesting line, which I did get across
hung up at the pipe riser but was able to back up and get going again
Do work driver
And across
PVC bridge with random rollers on it. First driver rolled over backwards, so used all of my skinny pedal
Well. .. that didn't work
but managed to winch off of it
attempt 2 was less skinny pedal and more winch
Still managed to roll off but was able to winch myself upright
no bounderies so i was still able to clear the gate at the end of the bridge.
Home stretch!!
and the last descent to the finish. In the words of Jezza. . . .
POWWAAAA!!!
nose dive but stayed upright through the finish
