As long as it's still in the box, it should be a real surprise when you open it.

Stop it!! JK, congrats man. I've wanted a merv for a long time now, and I'm doing well to fight the Tower 3 pay thing. Did you get the VXL version? With paddles, that thing would be the ultimate snow toy for my parking lot.

Ya its the vxl. You should just go for it, they are a blast! I was thinking the same thing about the paddles too, had those on my emaxx once and it would haul in the snow!

Why replace the rear bulk and shim it for 3s? I haven't had any problems on mine and all I run is 3s.

My buddy has had to replace his diff on 3s and i had to shim mine on 3s, the other one is on 2s and it seems fine so far...

Without even trying. Lightly touching the throttle landed it on the roof. I installed a center diff just to keep the front wheels on the ground.

Interesting.
Sounds like a future upgrade!
