Does it still turn smoothly and nicely? And, how much smoke are we talking about and when? If it's after you get done crawling (Which I'm gonna say maybe?) yes, that's bad. How hot is it when it smokes?

I was gonna say the same thing.. A 19T in a crawler? You relize that 55T is the most common right? Your running a little quick of motor. My guess why its smoking.

That's what I figured. Either that or a rock racer. I ran a 55 geared to the moon and it worked a little better than a 17 geared low.

Mud truck is synonymous with scale so I think he should be ok.

Oh yeah, we joined at the same time, I know what flaming means. Back when everyone was basically allowed to be a complete asshole to us when WE didn't know anything.. But using a quote implying his post was irrelevant is kinda b.s. too. You didn't post any kind of tech and accomplished nothing other than trying to put him down.In the newbie section...
