I have a:
traxxas rustler
traxxas revo (rpm a-arms)
big monster truck that needs a pullstart, and a body
the revo is hella fun. fast, goes over everything, etc. actually haven’t ran it yet this year, just been busy. might be looking to sell if anyone is interested…

so i’m more than half tempted to do something stupid and get a 3.3 jato… revo… or tmaxx… jato is just a badass with a decent price tag… but i’d worry about the suspension and disintegration on impact … revo… pricey… tmaxx… a bit slower, but a nice basher.
any nice places to run in williamsville area … nitro (noise) friendly?

get the revo if you are considering off roading at all.
its handled everything I’ve ever done to it. I jumped 20 concrete stairs at ralph wilson stadium two years ago 3 times in a row, 30mph, nothing broke. (one of the parking lots with a grass hill near it?

i know a guy who is real good at tuning in rc’s. I was crazy pissed because I couldnt figure out why my dynotrax buggy with the big block engine in it wouldnt stay running for more then a minute. I called up dynotrax and they recommended a new fuel tank, etc because it may not have the proper pressure to feed the fuel into the motor. Well tried that still to no avail, so I started talking to my guy, he says let me look at it. I bring it to him and he figures out that when the buggy way manufactored, the pressure line from the pipe to the fuel tank was never drilled out all the way so it could not build up enough pressure. I was so happy he was able to solve the problem.
