Default Don't get MAD, But

Hey guys since I have built my course it gets kinda old drivin it by myself and none of my friends will pull the trigger on a crawler. I am allowing myself to "blow" a small portion of my tax refund and I was originally going to buy axle components for my 1:1 around 230$ worth, but know I am wanting to buy another crawler instead so my gf, little brother and just regular people can crawl with me.......Ok ok and I want another rig haha. I don't want to have two of the same ones and have narrowed myself down to an Axial RTC, Seems like a good out of the box-er, good tires, good shocks, 2.4 radio system. I found them for around 250 at TCS and Rpp and also put a wanted add up in the classifieds. What do you guys think?

Sounds like you are asking permission from the wife lol. No need to ask permission from us, we aren't axial guys lol I have an ax10 tuber, rs10 and am building an scx10. I say get whatever you want, just don't start trashing all rs10's when you do. That's the only thing that gets me is the die hard guys dogging the rs10. We know it's for fun, they kind of get lost in the comp too much.

the rs 10 will still be my main rig just trying to see what the people in this forum think of the decision. If I wasn't a Rs10 guy I would be over in the axial forum saying I finally saw the light blah blah redcat is trash blah blah.

From what I have read, the losi comp crawler seems to be the best out of the box crawler. Do a little reading on the comp crawler and see what you think

Why not get another 10 then when sombody whoops up on the other it's not because they were driving a different rig.

I just think it's cool to have a MOA and a shafty and mod both. No point in having two of the same ones. Although I cannot find anywhere that has them in stock for a decent price, to bad zno doesn't sell them.

That's pretty much the same reason I got my ax10. My younger brother plays with them until they are either dead or the batteries are lol So I have those two and am building an scx10 so he has another option to run dead.

I picked up a maxstone 10 a while back and was actually impressed with it after fixing it out of the box! Cheap as dirt too.

I have two maxstone 10's and they are awesome. I have put more money into the rock that I built my course out of then I do my crawlers. The ax10 guys all think that it is one of the same untill I tell them I have less then 200$ into it.
