| Man, I'm starting to miss my mini already, even though it is a mini mauler, not mini-t. I set out to build a truck to out bash my freinds basicly stock mini-t, and I never finished my extended chassis. That tiny truck with a 5 cell was too much for the stock wheel base, I'm gonna go 6-8 cells when I finish my new chassis. Hey guys, what's the wheel base on your mini-t's? Stretching to fit mini-t bodies was also part of my grand scheme. |

Tonight we will be running a mini class at the track for the first time. Should be interesting. 4 of us running b/l mini's. I usually race 1/10 nitro stadium truck ( OS 18CVR) so they are actually pretty similar (ridiculously overpowered) | |

| Sound like your having a blast with that Mini-T  and thats what its all about. Plus the hop ups are endless for it. I had a a Mambafied Mini T for a while. I was running Trinity pre glued street tires and the wheelies were endless on blacktop and tons of fun. It all ended after a day of golf with my buddies (and a few beers ) in the parking lot, I pulled a wheelie at around 40+ and flipped it on its back, slid for about 20 feet on its lid into a parking block butt first. The 8000kv motor can dented so bad it froze up, parted it out on Ebay after that to fund a 10th scale. Still miss it:-(Enjoy it man, endless fun! |

| WOW, you guys dug up a 2 year old thread! Gotta agree though, put a Mamba 8000kv setup in mine about the time this thread was started and it's still a white knuckle drive for me! |
