I haven't seen that body for a slash before. That looks really good. As for onroad, at one point I owned a nitro tc3, but got rid of it pretty quick. Looks good. Are the vaterra pretty nimble or more for straight line?

There's only one problem with those pics: NOT ENOUGH DIRT! Go play at the track now!

Actually, it got pretty dirty yesterday. Or dusty. I have a steep dirt hill in my back yard and I was blowing my roomate and his sons mind with the roost this thing could make.

This is my first experience with a sensored motor. It's so smooth.

Very nimble! mine is just geared to the moon making it more of a straight line. If I use 2s then is way more enjoyable for "front of the house with nephew" kinda day. Vaterra also has some killee bodies.

yours is 2wd right?

 

[grgbulldog]

Yes. The track is a smaller indoor track and the 2wd stuff is the most run there.

An old losi mini lst popped up on my local craigs in good shape minus battery for 40 bucks. Should I go for it?

 

[EfrainCG]

lol! I dont want to tell you how to live your life but, i love those minis!

 

[grgbulldog]

Dirt. Track was dry and dusty. It was fun. I was really getting the hang of it there at the end.

@hamz9561 hope that is enough dirt!
sweet ride bud!

That's not enough to give @Rolex more than a case of the shakes. I was wanting enough to give him a heart attack...

Only mild shortness of breath. Bash on...

So my dirt webs look like this.

I found some 2.2 road rages on ebay. Should help my need to drive it around the cul de sac and driveway.

 

[EfrainCG]

very nice wheels!

Road rages are pretty good on tarmac. The warmer the asphalt the better.
I had some 2.8 rages a while back on a ridiculously over powered Speed-T.

Sucks the disco'd the 2.2''s I have no clue what to run as a general pavement/whatever tire. They definately have better grip on the asphalt than the dirt webs.

 

[Rooky78]

I dunno what's up with Pro-Line. They're discontinuing a lot of stuff. They keep on, they'll only sell premounts.

 

[grgbulldog]

Got some goodies. The bro codes were 6 bucks on Amain. I couldn't resist for some old new tires. Everything else is just wheel nuts, MIP diff rebuild kit etc. My 6 year old dynamite 2.0mm he driver is worn to hell, so I ordered an MIP driver.

 

[grgbulldog]

Regretting blowing money on this. The track that's been there for 5 or 6 years has now closed down. That's the only reason I even got back into it. It's now 700 dollar junk that will sit in the basement untouched forever.

Damn, that sucks Braden! I hate to hear that.
