I had a Losi XXX-T, used to run it with an Mamba, then a Mamba Pro, on 5700kv Castle motor. Tons of speed, but didn't go much anywhere other than pavement and dirt.
Mamba is how.

Every time I run a 3s on my Slash is hit thermal with the stock stuff

i had ALOT of hopes for the ttr corr pro2 truck, but it just never took off...

Pre-Orders are now being accepte

they were developing it before the short truck craze came around, and they just took too long on it... by the time it was ready the slash was available.

the 2wd slash would drive circles around it, but man its scale and just cool.

if i was wanting a hardcore 2wd basher for skateparks and obscene abuse i would go slash.

Been thinking about picking up an EXO kit and a Wraith kit just befor I leave, then while we are waiting on all the construction to be done, I could a hybrid using the EXO front end and the Wraith chassis and rear in. JasonInAgusta is doing one now.

Watch some videos of it. If you want to bash, I think it will be hard to beat in the dirt. Not a bashed in the class of a Slash but better off road as far as I can see. If I ever get another go fast it will be an EXO or a 2WD Slash again.

Ya think one of those EXO's would handle power to the rear end only quite well? I think it would be cool in a 2wd trim with proper wheel/tire combo.
I never looked into how they are set up... I would imagine it would be easy to make it rwd.

It has 3 diffs; front/center/rear. So all you gotta do is disable the dog bone going to the front diff and boom. You could pull out the front arm dog bones too so that it has more of a 2wd look.

Nice.. Thanks.

I don't know.. Something about the RWD with me.. Maybe its the reduced traction, the looseness, the counter-steering.. The wheelies.. It's slower but, it seems more scale with those things.

I might look for an exo and do something like that. The cool part about that is, it can be AWD as well.

But, yeah, I am the same way. Had a blast with both my SC10 and Slash but didn't really care for either in 4WD for bashing, took all the fun out of it without the slipping and sliding around the turns.

i love running my little rc10 buggies.

they only get out of control when you get too much power to them.

You sure, I made a deal and am getting ready to PayPal him but don't want to bio the RC version of cock blocking you. Already had that done to me. I took the note from Johnny to be to me but I misunderstood the chain.

If you want it, you can payment and I will pass it on when it gets here.
