Novak can suck it, this is big boy 1/8th scale hotness @ 2650kV, running 3s for bashing, 6s to do 90mph and crashing.
The Traxxas one shit within 30 seconds on 3s, it literally smoked on the first WOT punch. My cousins died within 2 days, then he replaced just the ESC with a Mamba Max Pro and the Traxxas motor lasted a day on that before the magnets became detached from the shaft.
Heres a little comparison for you:
L to R: Stock VXL, Mamba Max Pro 2400, Mamba Monster 2650(my new one)
