ive been looking at the nitro RC cars/trucks for a while and finally got one..

this is the Traxxas Stadium Maxx -- havent made any mods to it yet.. but comming down the line is the tuned pipe.. and 4x4 conversion for it..

this truck is simple awesome.. eventually im gunna get a street car as well..

Roxxy · 09-22-2004, 08:02 AM

Cool pics andy!

How fast can that thing go?

CE_BigB · 09-22-2004, 08:08 AM

My kid has an HPI Savage for sale...

it has xtra rims and paddles...

Race motor... K&N air filter.. hypo disc brakes.. metal gears, race clutch...

I think 600 would take it home with the radio and tools

WTS_andy · 09-22-2004, 08:15 AM

Roxxy - out of the box.. which is how that one is it will do 40+ mph.. with the mods im looking at im not sure what it will get up to.. am still new to the RC world....

CE_BigB - i looked at the HPI Savage.. those are some sweet trucks.. alomst bout one instead of the Traxxas.. with all the stuff you listed 600 is a damn good price... hell just to get everything i needed to run mine i spent 550... and thats just stock

that was my reasoning for the longest time.. til i started looking into them..

the most expensive part is up fromt.. my set up ran 550.. thats everything to get me running right then..

but parts for it are cheap.. break an A-arm.. 7 bucks.. axle.. 10 bucks.. course new engine will be 150ish.. with rims/tires comming in around 60 or so..

but they are tuff trucks. ive abused mine pretty good since i got it and havent broke anything.....yet
