  1. Bashing
Thinking of getting back into the hobby as a lot of you know I was one of the only people who actually loved the rustler(brick). I was going to stick with stadium trucks. I have always had traxxas products with the exception of a OFNA buggy but am looking for a change I was looking at the HPI Nitro Mt2 G3.0 I haven't really found anything on here about them

I've been out of the scene for a bit so any info on new products and what you all think would be sweet.

I'm going to dig and post all my old stuff for sale to save up for a new baby so keep your eyes open.

I know you still like Traxxas. I would be totally considering a Slash or a Slayer if I were looking to get one of their products. I dig the CORR look.
 
i have a duratrax stadium truck and a MMGT 3.0 for sale on here ... feel free to browse my add in the for sale section.
 
I have been looking into them, they look pretty nice. I don't race So I am looking for a hardcore basher.

hardcore basher !! i also have a savage 25 ... you can't get much more hard core basher than a savage.
 
From what i heard the Slash is the Best/Toughest Rig Traxxas made in 5 years. I think that will be my next purchase. Also, I heard the Slayer is not so tough.
 
If your going electric. Definatly go with the Slash. A mean tough son of a bitch. And at only $200 new, you can afford to go brushless for insane speeds. The single best controling car i have ever driven.
 
Then have you seen the new AE Corr truck? That is one hot truck!

I saw some of the initial pics and it looked great! But I'm also getting the pinch to seriously consider dumping my nitros and getting a 5T to thrash with!

HELL YEA. That and you should get a slash too when you need to SHHHHH.:hehe:
 
Go for the 5T and the Associated SC8. RC10.com has a new video of it running on a track and it kicks ass. RTR and some cool new features.
 
Well I will say that the slash is the toughest, most duable RC I've seen besides the HPI Baja 5B, but the slayer isn't that way.

I LOVE the SC8, the only thing that sucks is that its nitro. I can't wait to convert one though. Also, the graphics scemes offered by the SC8 is insane.
 
I've thought of going electric because I don't have that much free time I want to plug it in and go, and they are cheaper

+1 on the Slash! All I have been able to tear up was the spur gear...

I am not one to tell anyone what to do, but at least look at the Slash before you buy. It has been one hell of a tough truck and you can go brushless for $200 more with a battery (but sans charger) and keep up with just about any nitro and still have money left over.

Opinions of the writer may be biased...
