Shakemandril builds Dlux, Superlite Bounty Hunter
Getting the thread started here so I can start adding pictures. The build is well underway but I do have some pictures to add in. I was originally going to build an AMX and had been collecting parts for it. I needed something different. Having tried the Remedy on XR axles because everyone else was doing it, I learned my lesson. Do it my own way! I never did get the Remedy where I wanted it to be.
Fast-forward a year and I'm still driving my Secret Agent (which I love) but it just needs too much upkeep (money!) to justify. I got my ass kicked by Hittman at the NM State Comp this year and he called us all out to do better. My rig did well enough to net 4th but I was behind by well over 100 points. My shocks were toast and the rig just wouldn't sidehill with the big boys so something had to be done!
I had already ordered my superlites before the comp and they showed up the day I left for the State Championship. Luckily, I had bought some raffle tickets and I won a few picks and the Dlux Bounty Hunter was on the table. I had fallen in love with the looks and it's capability on the videos online. I decided to snatch it up along with some Dravtech wheels and RCBros shock cups. HUGE THANK YOU to all of the sponsors from that comp, it was amazing!
Hundreds of dollars later, here I sit with superlites, bounty hunter, loaded dice weights and wheels and lot's of work ahead.I chose sidewinders, brood chaos and big bores to hold it all up. Pics soon! "thumbsup"
