I wanna build a trailer for my t-maxx to pull my jato around on anyone done this yet? I'm planning on building it out of steel but that's about all I know I'm sure someone out here can help me look cool :hehe:
 
let say the trailer weighs 7lb with a 6lb truck will it pull the 13lb fine or am I going to tear stuff up
 
I think you'll have clutch issues. Nitro trucks aren't meant to put around towing stuff, so the clutch will be slipping most of the time and the engine won't be getting the air flow needed. If you try towing it at normal nitro speeds though, you'll be picking pieces of your Jato and trailer up. I think you'll be ok if you do it every now and then for short periods, maybe use it as more of a way to "display" them in storage.
 
I just thank it would be cool to trailer it maybe 100 ft but thanks for you input and I would only got 10 mph tops with it
