P5 in a Revo. EB Modded P5 in a Revo.
 I like it. Nice job Gabe can't wait to see it at the races this Sunday. That thing has got to have insane HP. I guess I'm going to have to put the screws to the Supermaxx Predator this week and get it tuned and race ready. I have done very little to keep the Predator running so I guess now is a good time to check it over. It's been the ultimate in durability and reliability so it shouldn't need anything other than a good running engine.

An extended chassis will help imensely. I'm also running the rear a bit stiffer so it'll push the fronts down some at 1/4 power through turns. who knows, we'll see.  I need to switch the gearing from 16T CB to a 17T CB and that will also help alot. As far as it being sooo modded and not having parts when I break at a race, could be a problem, depending on what I break. I'm also thinking diffs, driveshafts, and tranny aren't going to last long if I start driving it lead fingered.  RBS5 RB2045 All Futaba

Its all in fun experimenting and trying new things out. At least you can say I have a BB Revo.
Tex with throttle control, I'd like to see that....J/K

oh....and I just made some lexan shields for the rear lower a-arms/driveshafts (like the supermaxx shields if you've seen those) I also made one for the chassis where I removed the throttle servo box.
Looks kinda cool and it'll make the truck easier to clean between races. RBS5 RB2045 All Futaba

You definately need a 17t clutch bell. Racers Edge makes a good narrow one. You might want to think of adding 1.5-2 ozs. of weight in the nose. I use 1 oz. on my short chassis and that works very well. I tried 2 oz. but it was too much with the TZ might be better with a BB though.
When/where's the next race after this coming weekend?

lol  we'll leave it at that. Naw, total including revo would be $1500+ 35 hours of modding and building. I think I payed like $1000 for everything because I bought some used stuff. RBS5 RB2045 All Futaba
