when the revo couldn't get anymore insane...

Based on the "1/10 scale is dead" and the "traxxas is red cat racing quality" comments I don't think it is his.. Though i may be wrong.. wouldn't be the first time.
 
his springs could be too short, so therefore he is using the zipties.

A: i dont run OS engines. I strictly run STS mills.
B: I will never run a traxxas product (can't race one according to my contract lol)... although, the revo is the only traxxas i'd consider... but its got a gearbox instead of a center diff
C: there isn't enough 1/10 scale action here to even consider getting a small monster truck.

I had a revo with the sirio .23 and it was very hard to drive way too much power , but then again maybe i'm not a good driver.
 
i remember first generation of sirio .23's, they sent rods thru the case.

Olds, as far as i know, its not even available yet. I have no clue as to when its supposed to be available. With GPMD controlling prices on OS engines, it isn't going to be cheap lol.
 
I have an XTM 24.7 in mine and it's pretty much undrivable on a track. I took it to a MX track yesterday and it was like driving a snake that wheelies... I had to be so easy on the gas that I couldn't get it to hit second gear. If I wasn't easy, it would either spin out or do a wheelie off the line. When/if it did hit second, it would pull a wheelie and I'd lose it. I'm considering putting my 18TM back in it... I just need to get the RS4 header so I can still run a side pipe.
 
well ya... that 247 outperforms the Ofna Force .32. I can easily understand why the darn thing was all over ;)
