Lucked out on my second TOF as well. A clear Pro, grey 310s purple skarn rings and black ifr rings. Plus hubs and grease.
Very cool score!

Dayum! Sweet! Always like seeing new PRO builds! Very nice win!
I've been holding myself back from participating in the TOF! I'd love to score another PRO before they are gone forever and their price doubles on the black market!
Unsurprisingly I got both of them built up almost right away. Both are still just waiting on servos which are in the mail.
I enjoyed building the pro more, both are a blast to build but I really enjoy putting together the F9 straight axles.
Ultra is getting:
Puller pro stubby 2700kv
Mamba Micro X2
Ecopower WP250T run at 8.4 from the CC 10amp BEC
Xd127 Bully and R35 Nitto MT
The Pro is getting:
Holmes Trailmaster Sport 27T 540
Holmes BR Mini
NSDRC Rs700v2
Wheels and tires are stock Vanquish till I decide what I want.
Oh and both truck are going to be 4S trucks. :shock:
And of course I assembled the wheels.

I’d say you’re doing right by both of those rigs!

great score on both shots you got ... they are looking even better built the purple rings suit the wheel color for some pop.
Both should be a blast! It will be fun to compare they side by side on the trail.
The Wheels look perfect!! But I am considering scale hardware in black or GR8 Gold
Woah, black or gold, now that may look good. Curious to see how either one would look with the purple!
build them with both 1 side of the rig on black the other on gold ... you will never be able to see both sides simultaneously. :mrgreen:
Perfect Idea!

4S?? Isn't that over kill? Is it for running lights, winch servo, really long run time? confused please explain. Thanks Mike
The Mindset for running higher voltage is for a couple reasons, I can drop down a couple teeth on my pinion gear which slows down the low end and makes the start up and slow crawl smoother, but I still can maintain my hiking or speed to be able to jump over small cracks, this reducing motor temps while maintaining speeds. It also allows direct power servos to operate at a high voltage meaning more power and more speed. And when you run the same load through a system at a higher voltage it lowers the Amp draw, increasing run time, lower temps, running more efficiently. Its some something I do in Comp trucks and a couple trail trucks that have capable systems. You have to be careful a lot of systems, winches, and lights are 3s max, which is still great but I like to have a nice slow crawl from gearing but a punchy power dump for loose climbs, hillclimbs and small jumps between rocks.
I hope that helps to explain it a bit!

Understood it all Thank you. Crawlers and scale trucks are all new to me as far as wiring up accessories, when to direct power servos and gearing for what i want the truck to do. If you ask me to set up a FE, Nitro Gas scale Hydro I got it covered HAHA..
Perfect!
I have no clue about any of those nitros and my one attempt resulted in a E converted T Maxx :lmao:
