So, I sold my HPI RS4 nitro AWD touring car, and got a Traxxas T-Maxx. This thing is highly addictive. Shamefully it has taken away some of my turbo fund, but I've already replenished it so its all good. I bought this one used, but I have already replaced most of the major parts, so its damn near a new truck. This thing has a 2 speed transmission and reverse, which is not the usual for nitro RC cars. I'm guessin that in its current state, it will do about 50 mph. Last night I did the equivelent of a B16 swap, I swapped in a .16 from the factory .15, about 1.2 HP. Its got a tuneable pipe and all steel gears, lightened racing chassis, the roll bar is custom, actually all of the aluminum on the truck is custom, and the wheels are aluminum now too. Prolly about $600 into it. Anyone else have one? Let me know what you think. I have a nicer body in the paint shop, this is just a bash around body.

Haha, I used to have one. It was electric and slow as ----, but it was fun. I beat the hell out of it and sold it. They are fun as hell, but it seems like everytime you take them out they break. I think I broke every part that could be broken on mine twice. The ------- hobby shop loved me. I always wanted to get a gas one, but I wouldn't know what to do with it. I would just get drunk and crash it into a wall at 50mph and that would be the end of it, kinda like my Civic.
