supercharged
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.

Re: Bought another truck today.
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).

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....
