Naaaaws



Johnny, a b5 was my first choise but they dont make street tires for it yet and I dont have a place to run it thats wide open without getting shot at by some redneck. The 5B is $300 more too. The plus side is that its gas and gas. Nitro is $15 a gallon :-\. I guess eventually the 5b will be cheaper to run than the Losi Nitro.

Awesome.

I've been avoiding this thread all night because I figured it was about a real truck, which didn't interest me. I got bored enough that it was my only option though. Cool truck. Back before I had money to spend on stuff, I used to have a pretty big interest in these things. Always got the magazines and catalogs. Now I have money and would rather throw money in a bigger vehicular money-pit. That's pretty badass though, and I like the buggy that random-strike posted. I was going to say to throw a forced induction setup on there...but scrolled down a little more and saw they do have setups. Niiiice (borat voice).

if you like old school motors... its fine. the pro .15 has been around since what, 1997?

spend the extra few bucks get the nitro rustler, unless you want years of nitro rustler/nitro hawk reliability with the nitro sport. throw 5x11 bearings in the wheels, add a header/pipe, and you basically have a nitro rustler.

but yeah, traxxas stadiums are the best for those 'hey, im gonna drive around that cement block' and drive into the cement block moment. 2 years and i haven't broken a single part on my rustler....
