Huuuuge New Truck Out !!!!!!!

[Lessen]

Saw a Genesis in person today

well, I was at one of my HS's today and they had a Cen Genesis displayed out on the counter. I'll tell ya that thing looks pretty bad ass, has an opening in the chassis already to accept another servo for 4 wheel steering, seemed to be pretty rugged and damn that engine is huge! I just don't get the concept for the 5th shock they have across the top of the tower. Interesting skid plates too... they are actually two pieces, one piece on the bottom is aluminum and the upright section is plastic. At 20 lbs. I'm sure that'll be a popular 1st hop up. Anybody else seen 'em in person or own one?

it looks like a nice truck, but some of the parts, like the pipe for example, look kinda crappy quality

i wonder if the engine is the same as the truckzilla,if it is then going to have some pissed off guys!!

 

[waasssup]

from what I've read its not,they make thier own engines,but thats what i read,so dont hold me 2 it.the truckzilla motor is 4.8hp and this motor is suppose 2b 5hp.the truck is suppose to run in the 50mph range,w/its 3 speed tranny

yeah, it looks crappy probably cuz it's not finished up real nice like most aluminum pipes. I did notice while checkin it out that the pipe itself is two pieces not including the header

those vids are pretty cool.. actually I think I've seen 'em cept for the wheelie one. The 2nd one is good... it seemed to take that hit fairly well.

 

[Domination]

how muchg are these things going for i imagine it has a pretty big price tag?

 

[waasssup]

thier suppose to be in the $450 range,but i see them advertised on sites for around $529-$549 and up

 

[Domination]

not bad. I'm thinking of getting a new MT my MAXX just can't take thge beatings anymore even with lots of hopups. I was gunna go with Savage now I'm thinking maybe Genisis.

 

[waasssup]
