Nitronewb, get yourself the March 08 issue of X-Treme RC if you can. They have a really good article on page 36 that tells about running in the snow, tuning, and maintenance. Keep in mind that electricity and water don't mix, and the control system on the truck is electrical so you need to take the right precautions and you will be running in the snow for years. If you run in the snow a lot and you have bought the new truck yet, you could consider a Maxx cuz the E-Maxx is set up completely waterproof out of the box, and you can upgrade the T-Maxx with those same parts and have a factory waterproof truck. Plasti-dip works great for waterproofing stuff as it is almost like covering your stuff in spray-on bed liner. only a lot easier to clean up. Good luck, and put up some pics and videos of that truck running in the snow once you get set-up.
Oh yea, in the march issue they are running a special so you can subscribe to XRC for one year and get another subscrition completely free. RC Driver is running a similar special that you can find on their website. There's always so much good stuff that you can learn in a magazine issue, and I've learned a lot from them although it doesn't even compare to this. hmmm, rcnitrotalk magazine anyone??
