| 1/18 scale Nylint
Just quickly, Are the 1/18 scale Nylint crawlers as strong as the 1/6 scale ones? I mean, size for size. I know the 1/6 is wicked strong as a crawler, but is the 1/18 the same? Are they worth it, as a means to have something to do while the Jug Bug is charging? |

I bought a 1:18 first, I now have a jeep and scorpion 1:18 and have had no problems with either, been running them hard for about 4 months now. I also have 3 1:6's, the first gen 1 chassis broke the axel pins and the last 2, gen 2 and gen 3 chassis have held up fine for me, been thrashing them pretty hard too. Troy |

I haven't broke anything on mine yet, but I also wheel it within its means. Meaning if I stuff a tire hard, I take a second and go pick it up. I don't keep on the throttle till it breaks something. Treat it like your 1:1 rig and it will last, unless you like to beat on your rig. |
