    I love driving my shorty its got a great turning circle thats great for tight bush work and even for buzzing around town,but yeh can get on some awsome angles sometimes,wheel placement is more important in a shorty for sure.

    the GQ based comp 'trolls (almost??) all seem to be based on a LWB chassis and running gear.

    Some people say its not necessary to put extended rear trailing arms on a GQ as the arches are smaller than a U so by doing so will let them scrub easier or more. But the extended arms are heaps stronger than the standard lil toothpicks that they come with so i'm all for it. Dont go castor bushes on the front they create a weak link, so opt as i said before for the drop boxes or ext arms
