Default Got my Mud Slingers today!

First off, big thumbs up to RC4WD for super fast shipping to me in Canada! Next, these things are huge lol! I'm still adjusting to the size of them. Also, foams are included with the tires. I have them mounted on some pretty narrow Clod wheels and I don't have the foams installed. I just mounted them for now, can't wait to get out and sling some mud. Anyways, here are some pictures for now.

Yes they do come in a 40 series tire, though RC4WD $40 a set. Those tires are plain nasty.

im gonna have to say that i had no interest in the type of truck like that until i seen yours.

i just bought a complete clod & ordered a set of those tires tonight!!

i had to have one of those

Rc4wd says they are out of stock of those tires but there are 10 sets available from their ebay store.

i hope they really have those 10 sets





where did you order yours from???

lol thanks man, I ordered from the rc4wd ebay store.

I'm running the EVX esc with the Titan motors and two 3200 packs, I did loose some torque but I'm going to change the pinions to get it back. I'll give up a little speed for some low end grunt.

Hope to go brushless someday.

Yup, well actually 14.4 volts, it's basically the original E-Maxx powerplant. Provides some good wheel speed for hill climbs, bashing, and good enough for me for some light crawling.

I have the two packs mounted down low in the chassis.
