gt2 electric conversion

[xtmracer]

so ive had my old gt2 sitting around for a while and it looks sad just collecting dust, so i figured while i was back home in texas on my break from college in cali i would convert her to electric. since gas truck has vanished of the face of the earth i might as well put the gt2 to use seeing as how gas truck was my first rc love and it made me the driver that i am. i threw a xxxt spur gear and pads on. i used an old motor plate off a xxxt as the new motor plate. just had to drill a new hole next to the transmission input shaft to widen the hole so the plate wouldnt hit the chassis or the diff outdrives. then just make 2 new holes to line up with the old hole that mounted the brake setup. im gonna rig up some electronics this week so ill post some new pics as soon as its done.

Nice clean, neat install. Looks like it came that one from the factory. Pitty Gas Truck racing isn't around anymore. Was the one class I never got to try out and sure looked like alot of fun. What motor and esc are you planning on running in it?

thanks man, yeah gas truck was so much fun. if you were fast with a gas truck you could be fast with anything. it took like an hour to make, i just finished it tonight lol. im not sure what electronics yet, im doing the starving college student thing right now so i might have so settle for some cheap stuff. i havent raced electrics since like 05. if it runs good i might convert it yet again to a short course truck.
