Looks like it has plenty of power, now we need to see a speed run in second gear, LOL!!

torque twist to the maxx!! hah, nice truck flm

 

[flm_savage]

that WAS 2nd gear. lol. Its geared way down for super torque but with a fast enough 2nd gear to make things interesting. Its a perfect trail truck which is where i ultimately wanted to be. More videos.

Very nice job on the build, looks like you did a good job of building it to last and making it fun too. definately a scaler to aspire to IMO.

i was really thinking the stock pinions would have blown by now. I left the axle's stock hoping to get some cool carnage but nothing yet. haha

as soon as the axles break and i can get the hardened setup in there, the weak link will be the shafts which is great because they are cheap and pretty darn strong.

2 more days.

oh yeah, i was thinking about getting started around 8ish. that should be late enough for you kiddo's to get enough sleep. i just don't want to be out when its smokin hot and if we run early, i can still get home to be with the fam later.

haha, thanks. I'll throw some more pictures up tomorrow. I had to grab some turnbuckles to replace the lower rear links since the truss messed up my pinion angle. Now its a touch low but it will be just fine. The little extra wheelbase is nice too. I will be trimming the body soon and maybe even "flat-blacking" it.

 

[SMaxxin]

That thing is sick, tons of torque!

sounds good. still gotta convince smaxxin

I can't make it this weekend, family business all weekend!

update to the truck. The mamba monster was just a beast to have on there and i wanted to go brushless for more speed so out went the electronics and on its way to me right now is the following.

Mamba max pro esc
