Default Project Street SupremaZy

So begins my 2nd project- make a street body MA-10 with something new to try my luck in this class and in hfay.

Started off with my body of choice -







Put a solid band of Invisible Shield all-around. Added 2 styrene pipes to reinforce the bumpers. Nice and even total weight

Next came the chassis with fresh batch of parts:






Stock with alum rims, 1 degree camber 3Racing knuckles, Ver3 3Racing ball diffs, PN Pro III spring double-stacks(softer up front, stiffer in the rear), 30s front, 20s rear.

My curioucity aroused when I noticed that PN springs were half as tall as the stock ones and it got me thinking as to what should I do... naturally I tried stacking them and this worked out perfectly. I have high hopes for this 2-step suspension since it could probably double as a damper and help alot in the corners.

Now the Version1 of this 202 gram beast:






Watch out 175-180 gram MR02s, my plow is out to get you now!
