Still waiting.........j/k! Hope you got some good pics of the carnage! :microwave
 
got back from work... they all punked out cause of A LIL RAIN... as I was bashing in the wet fields and mud... the new gear combo workd perfect for these conditions... anyways.. they said this friday... the sport MAXX will be no show didn't think it could hang with us...


I sold my Force 25 to the guy with a T-MAXX.. he is hoping to have it in by this friday.. saw the damage i did and felt his 2.5 couldn't match up..
 
LMAO...........no guts, no glory........besides what's the harm in a little friendly bashing??? hehehehe:hamster:
 
LOL well thats good the guy with the sport maxx chickend out to easy to whoop. The 2.5 shouldnt be a hard challenge (come on its a 2.5) Well if he has that .25 hmm it might be close have fun.
 
Last nite I was at my LHS to pick up a new Savage body to paint... started telling them about the little bash we are going to have on friday... couple of the customers over heard and wanted to join in... now we got a Dirt Demon, Associated MT, and a Thunder Quake... plus I got another co-worker to buy a Savage 25... plus I am helping him to break in the enigne and tune it..

this will be a nice little challege of MT.. though I can't say I can be part of of the best outta the box MT...

so far:

T-Maxx 2.5 (maybe Force 25)
T-Maxx Fantom 15
Terra Crusher Fantom 15
HB Dirt Demon .26 (stock)
Associated MT .21 (stock)
Thunder Quake .21 (stock)
Kyosho Mad Force (Stock)
Savage 25 (stock)
Savage WASP 26
Savage Outlaw 26

then on saturday we are going to hit the BMX tracks and see how they REALLY HOLD UP

turns out that the T-MAXX couldn't get the Big block in due to the cost of the BIG BLOCK CONVERSION... damn $150!!!! shoulda gotten a Savage 25 and still save... $ 399 for the T-Maxx, $150 - $200 for a big block engine, and another $150 for the conversion kit, $60 Exhaust and header kit :ponder:

Yeah I can't wait to get my Savage and see how it does. My maintenance guy is going to get a savage 26 for Christmas so I have to beef up my motor quite a bit though. TRD did you beef up gears as well??? I would imagine that a bigger motor will strip spurs no problem.
 
Actually I beef up all Drive Train parts:

RRP Metal Spur Gear 52T
GPM Gear Set
HPI HD Silver dog Bones
Titanium Center Drive Shaft
NuEra Aluminum Brake Hub
HB Vented Disk Brake
GPM Alloy Wheels
HPI Heavy Duty Cup Joint
4 Spider Conversion Differential

All Gears are grease
 
oh yeah today is the challenge...Sun is out weather is nice.. hope there won't be any punk outs... should there be a lil wager???
 
actually was rescheduled for Sunday morning at the BMX tracks... 5pm here it's alread nite time.... damn day light savings!!! but the Terra crusher and T-MAXX came to play we messed around in the parking lot... little windy and cold... but the terra crusher with the Fanthom 15.... I still have a hard time believing these MT are running 15 size engines... they are okay on the pavment.. but I will see how they perform on a dirt BMX track
 
This story intrigues me. Why? No ending. How did the bash go? Who out performed whom?

Never mind...just found the update thread.
