Tested out the Mamba max esc today, still have the vxl motor in the slash. Its night and day difference between the stock esc and the Mamba.

Got a tuning cord on order.

Smashed a rear hub today to, time to upgrade

fast lane machinery makes great parts for the slash. if you want plastic go with rpm.

Picked up the Traxxas aluminum pieces today, good to go till I smash the fronts. Prob upgrade fairly soon me thinks.

Traded my wraith/blazer for a scx10. Kept my tsl's as well.

It came with steel bumpers and stuff, blazer body, 2.2 crawler tires.

Swapped my tsl's on, love the look if it.

X3...

Yeah there's just something about that whole look that works for me!

 

[Bowtie85]

Yeah kinda lost some crawl ability with this thing. But hey it looks prettier on the shelf more than the wraith. And it'll get used just as much.

Needs a little love, front axle is binding and possibly something in the trans/motor.

 

[84CUCV]

those are great tires. i lowered the body on mine and cute the fenders

 

[79rustyk10]

Needs more wheel speed, wider tires, and a diet. Otherwise it did pretty well in the snow today.

 

[magik235]

I wish my Jimmy had traction like in the picture.

 

[Bowtie85]

Finally got all my parts to convert the front axle back to scx outers. PO had put wraith outers on and nothing fit right and the tires were majorly toed out. My run last 10 minutes till I hit a stump and Broke the knuckle/bent the aluminum tie rod around the diff

Might just order alum knuckles for it, still got a spare plastic one to break though


Figured I'd take a pic of it flexin on some pilsner

 

[bmxbryant9]

My AX-10, don't know too much about these but its pretty fun!

need to do some minor fender trimming, tires are rubbing all over the place
