Well... she had a long life but I finally decided to retire my Maxx. She started out as a pro .15 .

Went through 3 new 3.3 engines, 2 trannys, 3 sets of shocks, and countless other parts. I traded in her latest 3.3 using the ERP, as it needed a new one way bearing and carb (I figured $50 more, why not?)

When I got home with the new engine I decided to use my engine off my Slayer (all broken in already) for the old girl. When I got the engine in her and ran her I found that she has alot of other things that she needs... cracked chassis, tranny problems, etc...:(

Sorry for the sad story but I figured I could dignify her with this post to keep her memory alive. I'll always keep her as a shelf queen now.

On the plus side.... I have a brand new never used 3.3 engine on back-up:D

Thank you all for your time
