Just curious who all has them and what they have. Post any pictures or links to videos here.

I have a nitro T-maxx 3.3. I haven't ran it in years. The last time I took it out I lost the screw that attaches the arm to the steering servo. After reading some of the post last night, I need to get it out again. I bought it used from a buddy at work and haven't been able to run it that much. It was a lot of fun, but I'm not gonna lie, I Think I got in over my head. I'd like to meet up with some of the more experienced guys so they can going to teach me the basics. How to tune it right. General maintenance. Etc.

I was in over my head 10 years ago! Since then youtube has been a help on learning to tune the car!

Then and now, I just terrorize the neighbor hood. Have never tried out a course!

Let's try to meet up sometime then. I need to make a trip to Hobby Town in Kennesaw. I need that screw and a decent set of hex drivers to work on my truck. All I have are the standard allens. They're a little short and a pain to use sometimes.

What I thought was just a broken control arm turned into a bent axle, bent control arm mount, and stripped out differential bulkhead

Need to get a new body for it!

I know there is a track in Covington. Where are some others at?

Thanks. They are fun for sure. Money pits tho. The yota was WAY over built. Point and shoot rig. The sticky tires probably helped!
The wraith is fun to bash around on the rocks.

Are they geared down or will they baloon the tires? I think they look cool, but I gotta go fast!!

They are geared down. I have a 45turn motor in my wraith. I forget the pinion and spur,80 and 18-20 I think.

The green wraith you can kinda see in the pic has a brushless system. It will fly,and still have good crawlability. Prob not as fast as a slash or the like,but seems super fast compared to mine.
