What an awesome looking car - I really like the rear suspension and the overall look of the car.

Have you run it yet? Looking forward to hear how it ran.

I've not had much time to work on the FF buggy of late but I've found that it excels on smoother tracks and esp when conditions are a bit loose for typical RWD buggies.

On rougher tracks sometimes the front wheels lose traction.

Seems FF buggies work best by carrying as much speed around the track as possible as they will not out-accelerate a RWD buggy.

You should mount backwards the rear shocks, this way only the shock piston and shaft is movement mass not the entire shock body with oil.
Good work!

Very cool mace... I really liked the FF that Bloodclot did aswell, was really impressed.

Like everybody else I hope you'll put up a video or 2 showing how it performed.

Thanks, Jon!

Thumbs up

nice job mate.

i did a chassis similar to this, the only problem i had was the steering become very light when the battery was layed out across the chassis. you'd be better using a saddle in there. another thing you may want to consider is around 45grms up front of the chassis.

if you get trouble with the rear traction, a trinity 3deg pivot block will help, you may find the car will seem to have more turn-in at the rear.

let us know how it goes.
