:wban: If you are planning on buying this car please read this first, if you own this car please reply and tell me what you did with it! I just got back from bashing my 1 month old 4tec for the last time, I have never had a decent running day with this car , I am kicking myself in the butt daily for not buying a tc3, which is what I am gonna do tomorrow,YES! I did break the engine in to the T! I am not new to tuning engines, The 2.5 so called racing engine has got to be the most ridicoulous tuning nightmare that has ever been invented, no matter what your settings! A little lean and it runs great for a short time then cuts out during acceleration, richen it up a little and it runs like a sloth, and thats if it will keep running at all! ok, mabye I did get a bad engine but from what I have read about them I dont think so, I have heard alot of tuning probs with this engine.SO! If you are interested in buying a 4tec I can only recomend you do alot of reading first, I wish I did! My suggestion would be run like @#%$! And then run like @#%$ to your LHS and get a decent car, like a tc3,ld3,hpi,ofna,cen,mugen,schumacker,anything!
I should have know this car was a toy when I saw the survo tray wrapped in a childrens balloon, geeee!! for the price of one of these things you would think they would have designed a servo box with a clip lock like the big boys do! I guess all that smart designing went into the 2.5 engine NOT!
THE END! Traxxas nitro 4tec RTR (Ready to Rubbish)
