I want a nitro SCT

[WVNed]

With 4x4. All I am seeing is Nitro Slayers. Is this a good truck? I would prefer something 1/8th scale. I have been watching ebay for an SC8.

Are you looking for a competition or for bashing?

 

[WVNed]

Just bashing.

 

[Meowzz]

A truggy or similar to the sc10 would be the best option. That is cheap but very good quality like the xtm xst which is what I have for bashing and a hobao for competition. The truggy's are very stable and can take a beating.
I can have a look for you if you'd like.
Your looking for a 1/8th?

 

[WVNed]

I have an 8ight-T, Neo ST, Savage X, Octane, LST2, Hyper 7TQ and an FO-XX. They need an SCT to keep them company.

 

[Meowzz]

What ever goes dude if that's what you want you should get.
I want the losing 5ive b

 

[WVNed]

Yes the 5ive-b looks awesome.

Slayer is a fun rig..durable and parts are easy to find,upgrades are endless ect..not a bad choice at all imo

 

[WVNed]

A Slayer is on the way. Thanks

I've never had a SCT, they look cool, and seem really well suited for track duty.

I just returned from bashing my old HPI MT1 and I have the suspension set to the highest ground clearance and there still stuff I bounce off of. I was basically driving on dirt next to a new house build, which there was a mountain of dirt next to, and I strugged going up the mountain because I would bounce off of the medium sized dirt clumps. Was fun though.

The break in has begun

 

[hotrodrob]

Nice

 

[WVNed]

I have done the first 4 tanks. I am either going to have to cut the grass shorter or take it somewhere for the fifth. It is a blast to drive. It has done the eat a small rock and stop dead thing twice now.

 

[Racer 1966]

I always do initial break-ins on hard pack dirt/concrete/asphalt to keep the engine load lower.
Need some pics!

 

[WVNed]

I ran the first 2 tanks on pavement at a church . I did the other 2 on my gravel drive. Now I need more room. 3 seconds of WOT takes some space. Pics coming

 

[WVNed]

Finished the break in today

 

[WVNed]

I ordered heavier springs for the rear and a sway bar kit.
Could somebody point me in the right direction on some tires for bashing. I would like some larger ones (doesn't everybody) to go better in short grass. What can be fitted. I have seen 2.2, 2.8 and 1/8 buggy tires looking on the internet but dont really get a sense of what works well.

What about gearing. It is very fast on smooth surfaces but I like to run on mixed stuff, gravel, grass and dirt and would like some more bottom end.

 

[SchrodeMode]

Badlands are great for short grass. Grab some 17mm hexes and then you can run the 1/8 buggy wheel/tire combo, I'm pretty sure there are some 17mm SC wheels as well.

 

[WVNed]

I am going with badlands 2.8s

Do Slash bodys fit a Slayer?
