I remember when my neighboor got the fancy “New Bright Hummer H2”, and wanted to race my tiny beat up Humvee. Never saw that thing out after a grassy dig race.

I’d be at quite a dis-advantage. But I’m down, I’ll have to pull it apart to tighten the rear-diff up some. And maybe purchase some lower range gears if I can find some.
The mechanical speed controller blows when it comes to low speeds. Unless someone has an old electronic one laying around.

does anyone have a big backyard where we can have a primitive bash? Just to get together, and see where we can go with this? And snow should be fun with the trucks also.

I’ve got a Duratrax Maximum S/T or something like that. Only has a Torq 12 engine on it but still rips pretty good being only two wheel drive. Me and Mindless managed to fuck up both of our trucks when we had them out a couple weeks ago in a matter of a half hour :lol:

Didn’t think about the Dodge relation to your screen name, but from now on… 😃
I have a 4Tec and a T-maxx (the original one :tdown: ) Neither runs right now.

I have an original T maxx and a nitro Vee… I’m down for meeting up somewhere to run the truck. I have just been driving it up and down my street, which gets pretty boring after a few minutes.

i’ve run mine for 3-4 winters and never once had a problem. The thing is you have to let them completely dry out. I usually shake my savage like it owes me money till most of the snow is off then sit it on a towel and let it dry.
