Help me out here... cen ct-5 or my Maxx??

[TWOCANE]

I have a chance to trade my Maxx for a cen ct-5. there is a lot of land for my Maxx but there is also alot of places for a fast car. Pros- Cons on what to get into.. thanks, Wayne

Well it depends. Do you like on-roads or off-roads? I'd keep the Maxx if I have a lot of land (Like some extra land on property or a large backyard/frontyard). I would get a CT-5 if you had a very close on-road track or you like drag racing along the street.

i like CEN lot but keep the maxx.... parts are more readily available for the maxx

thanks guys, I have no idea about cen RC cars.Keep it coming,guys

my question is what condition is your max in.. the cen is a sweet on road.. and i almost took the offer. maxx's are easly abused.. maybe you have a nice rig. dont know. but i have seen "the cen" its a little dusty, but fairly new. parts are a little slow to get couse its mostly mail order. but they are good rigs and very tough with awsome motors. not to mention they do about 75mph...

You have a nice Maxx bro. I'd keep it if I were you. Every once in a while I consider getting rid of my Maxx and getting a different MT but it was my first real r/c. Even thought nothing on it was truly part of the original the idea still stands. They are still good trucks, they just need a lot of upgrading (which you've already done)

keep the maxx!

 

[TWOCANE]

Its all been rebuilt down to new screws. And since being built onnly 1.5 tanks have been put on it. Did you get offered the same cen?

Thanks Lessen, I hear you on the upgrades.

I think you should keep the maxx. I think about doing the same thing, but I know personally I can always take my maxx out back and have a blast. I would have fun with an on-road car in front of my house for about two days, then I would be bored unless I had a track nearby (which I dont) I don't know what the CEN costs, but I know about what you have in that maxx, and I think if you're just wanting an on-road to play with, keep the maxx and save up and get an on-road that isn't too expensive, then you can have the best of both worlds

 

[TWOCANE]

Charles you are the man, I was thinking the same. I do have alot more in mine than the CEN would cost new times 3...my wife never lets me forget,LOL

I'm looking into getting an on road myself, and I considred trading but the numbers just don't match up unless you go up to a full race grade vehicle, which is not what I want because I want to be able to bash in the parking lot. Have you looked into getting a rally car?? Then you could have an on-road car yet still have a track set up on dirt too. I've been watching some videos and the look like A LOT of fun on the right terrain. Almost like on-road, off-road, and drift car combined.

I'm loving the RPM arms by the way, I think you'll be very pleased with them. Now you're getting that thing set up where you can just go out and bash and have something dependable. It's gonna take a pretty good crash to hurt most of that stuff.

RPM make some good stuff, e bay has some good prices. I no cause I shopped around a lot.
