|  Very Unorthodox....
Hey ya'll....first post here, and I really need some help. I'm in Afghanistan and me and my buddy decided to get some RC trucks....I got the INTEGY IROCK ( I know the rep, but it hasn't given me any problems) he got the E MAXX....He keeps hounding me about his speed and my lack thereof....Is there any combination of motor/gearing that I could swap out to at least be able to race with him? Like I said, I know this is very unorthodox, but some info would be very helpful |

Try a Holmes cobalt puller motor. Tons of torque and wheel speed. Just be prepared to break stuff!! I don't know if that would let you beat him or not, but it will help ypu keep up with a Maxx. Good luck...  |

Be careful putting any kind of power to the Irock. The 4 we ordered all broke their axles, and the 3 that broke the quickest had upgraded motors... Go crawl some rocks and have your buddy try to follow you!

E-Maxx: built for bashing, geared to drive the wheels while giving it some top end speed for the thrill factor IROCK: built for rock crawling, not really a bash factor or geared to go Fast turn the tables on him, try having his truck do what yours was built for then bust his stones when he cant do things you can. youll spend more money on parts trying to beat him then its worth. |
