Snow wheelin', RC style....

[BCarlson]

Well... this is my first post here on though not my last. My new to me XJ should be at my home this week, once the foul weather passes through. I've chatted with "cshontz" on other boards on the net. He told me I shouldn't feel like a total n00b posting on here, hope not I'll admit, I am coming from the land of Toyota's, the darkside as some would say.......

Anyway, as the topic states... Some RC wheelin' went down today as I got to leave work early.

Some pics for you guys:

Thanks for the welcome.

And yes it does tilt to the passenger side..... it's known as the Juggy/TXT-1 tilt. Caused by the rotational forces. Dual motors into a center mounted tranny then out to the axles via driveshafts(like a real rig). There's a ton of force out to the axles causing it to tilt/lean. If I had some sway bars it'd help slow it down but I go without them. It might even be less if the axles were not locked up but since this is a dedicated crawler I have to keep the diffs locked up.
