RC Driving Style
i have about 1000 bucks to spend. i have been looking at all the cars on the market and i am leaning twoards the titan twin or maybe a pimped out txt-1. those are just 2 ideas i need to be the coolest (fastest) kid on the block (these little p.o.s. schumachers are really pissing me off) i am up for anything as long as it is a truck.
 
Get a Savage then upgrade to cvd's all around. Get the dual .21 conversion kit and put 2 24.7 pros in it. It will be rediculously fast. But it probably still won't come close to beating a fusion
 
If thats what you want then go for it however, be careful what you wish for.

2 engines doesn't mean its faster. You will get greater torque if you are able to tune both engines properly at the same time. If they aren't, you will loose power and have less than 1 well tuned engine. You will have 2 times the maintenance and twice the trouble as a single engine RC.

It has a bling factor unlike any other but will not achieve your goal of having a fast RC.

Think twice. If you do get one please post lots of pics and get a second full time job to support you new hobby.
 
Get an hpi rs4 3 ss, .18 siro, supercharger, nos, every aluminum part you can find, all the 6 cvds (like me:banana: ) upper deck, good radio, boost botte, and i garuntee youll like it.

Get a Schumacher Menace 21 monster truck. Just as fast as the fusion only tougher. 1/10 scale truck, .21 engine, 3 speeds. For experienced drivers only though. Unless you have $$$ for spare parts. Hitting something at 70mph tends to break stuff. Shoot, hitting something at 50mph tends to break stuff.

Fasteddy is right, 2 engines is not the answer for speed. Its all in the gearing.

Forgot, check my gallery if you want to see pics of the Menace 21.
 
i work at a hobby store fixin cars all day and all i see any more is menace .21 with totaled front ends(i almost miss seeing all the tmaxxs with smashed front bulkheads). they have really crappy construction :wban: and i hate them. yes they are speed machines but they lack in every other department. besides i would never trust a 70 mph truck with a belt drive(i dont care if it is 10mm or fully sealed). i might try a 3speed in my maxx with a sirio 11port .27 with a nos running into a supercharger with foam tires a milled out chassis light weight everything 1/8th scale diffs and last but not least an f.o.c. conversion.
:buggy1: VROOM VROOM :bow:
 
Let your feelings out metallicamax, now what really is troubling you...JK:jester: Yeah, I wouldnt trust a belt driven MT that can go 70. I would just buy a fusion, then just hop it up like mad to smoke ur neighbors or who ever.
