I know some say nitro can't crawl, but you should see the piles of rock my nitro will crawl over
I'd bet anyone my nitro will out crawl anything on this forum.
I'll be at the nationals this year to prove it

Some of us are being Sarcastic, Others just try to get the guy to say something that would totally not make sense.... But Sure, I guess some would believe anything..


PedeCrawlerguy - No Nitro Can... I'm thinking he went up against a bone stock Scorpion, that wasn't set up very well... But Again, I say T-maxx Jokingly.

Well I have to jump in on this. First off I think this is a good JOKE. If you do have a nitro crawler then I have a few questions. First how long have you been working on it? If it is water cooled then what kind of cooling system are you using? the next is the gearing? The last is we need pics

Hype! It's one thing to just bash on rocks, it's another thing, a completly other thing to crawl and hit a gate, or a series of gates.

Not impressed.

driving skill is involved too, big deal, the revo just is alot louder and faster on the rocks, why does everyone get their pantys in a bunch whenever this is brought up? i know im not having a nitro crawler because im better with electric but it can do everything any other crawler can

The wb on my 2.2 is comp legal 12.5"
I'm using a SW3 chassis
The super is 17" wb, with an NN chassis
Both crawlers are running Hyper 21's
and both have ofna titan trannys
The 2.2 uses X-factor axles/w the savage axle swap
The 2.2 has moabs, and the super has jumbo kongs
The cooling for both is handled through a perry pump running into a custom brass radiator, with a cooling fan from a nitro blizzard.
Gearing is 11/76

To answer your question Bob, I've been working on the crawlers off and on for the past 2 years.

I'll get some pic's up tonight.

You will all see, nitro can crawl, when I take first in both classes at the nationals this year
