XTM Racing Mammoth ST truck

[digger]

Thanks for the link digger. I see many of the mods I was planning are already covered on his site. Nice.

What have you done with yours?

Sorry bro. Haven't had time to run mine much. It's all stock and was starting to get a good tune when I put it up last year.

R9's site is about all the help I can give ya. Just what I have read there and on the XTM forum. I'll try to find a link or a post if you run into something.
Good luck with it. Wish I could help more.

Where did you guys buy these things for 340?

The RCX show in Anaheim, CA had them for sale at the Hobby People booth at 349.99. Are you planning on purchasing one?

Just googled it and the cheapest I see is 399. Funny that I just went there last weekend and they had em for 349... WTH? Hobbypeople suck.sorry had to vent again.

I'm looking into them...I want to pick up something new this year. Looking at this and the hellfire and the H8.

Are you planning to race or bash? If you are looking into racing the truggy class, you may want to consider the ST-R or CRT instead.

If you plan on bashing only, the Mammoth ST is a decent truck, but be aware that many things must be upgraded for durability. See this thread for what I have done to mine.

How much money in aftermarket parts was that SweetD?

 

[sweetdiesel]

Total cost of the tear down and rebuild was just a hair over $400. This is considering the engine and electronics were not new purchases and the stock engine was sold for $100. I can dump another $200 to make it raceworthy but at that point I could have just purchased an ST-R or CRT and called it a day.

For YOU it would be very pricey. You might want to consider taking up another hobby. Knitting seems to be right up your alley. It definitely fits your personality.

I am not afraid to do that. I can knit you up a sweater in your favorite color....PINK
