[ss_burns]

anyone have any experience w/ these? Look like a pretty good deal, and was wondering what the pros and cons might be.. thanks.

i dont have one, but i would chose a mini-t, hpi micro rs4, or the xray m18 over a duratrash, duratrax*

Hey SS burns, Tower Hobbies has them for $79.00 RTR all you need to do is charge the battery. It's the best real out there. They are discontinueing them soon and bringing out a better one but for twice the cost. If your not racing and just running in your house,you can't beat the deal.

ended up buying 3 of them.. one for me, and a pair for my twins.. for $80 a pop, seems like a pretty good deal! :cheeky:

I'm sure you and your twins will be happy with them. They are a great deal and disregard the people who bash the Duratrax. I have co-workers who own Nitro Quakes and they beat the crap out of them. And one guy has had his three years and two engines later without breakage. Congrats on your purchase.

[ss_burns]

Thanks.. I hope so. Considering the only other choice in that price range was the X-mods, it seemed like a no-brainer.. Dura Trax advertizes their stress-tech guarantee for those, also..

I just ordered one up too. Just gunna use it around the house, sounded like a great deal to me, only 80$

It is a great deal, I should have bought one instead of my mirco rs4. I would have spent extra money on springs and wheels to bring it up over $100.00 and get the $10.00 off at towers. Oh well, I will still be bashing in my basement with my rs4. Congrats on your new rides gentlemen. Good money spent. Let the winter bashing begin!!

Scott.

 

[AC48]

Yeah, I bought a second battery for mine, and some wheel covers (20 Spoke). I also got a screw set and that brought me to like 101$ so I got the 10 off.

Sweet deal, I will try to sneak one under the tree this year for myself. Any idea how fast these go? 15 mph would be plenty fast for my living room.

 

[AC48]

I dunno how fast they are, but I would assume somewhere around 10-15 mph. Plenty fast for any living room I would think lol.

 

[sweetdiesel]

I just watched the video from Tower's website and they look like much fun. I'll be ordering one soon.

 

[AC48]

Yeah I saw the vid too. Looks cool. You can get a few hop ups like a graphite chassis, aluminum upper deck mounts, harder shock springs and stuff. Does anyone know what size motor it is? I might want to upgrade the motor in the future, but what ones would fit? Anything that fits the Micro RS4???

 

[Throttle]

Wow,it looks like we are all going to have some fun this Xmas bashing in our homes. The ESC in that car is $50.00 by itself. Great score on a nice ride.
Have fun with your cars guys.

Scott.

Yeah, definetely some good value with this ride, especially with the Stress-Tech Guarantee. (sp?)
