Traxxas sand rail !!

[9x19]

I was completely on the fence here then my LHS , owner needed some bobcat work done at his ranch , I spent 3 hours helping him out and the Traxxas thing is on its way , I’ve done construction and all that comes with it all my life and the barter dealings have always helped in someway I’m very fortunate with this and the connections I’ve achieved , I still owe on the thing but it was a deal I couldn’t refuse still being a child n all

I look forward to reading your report!

Gotta admit. Pretty cool. And add a flag whip? Like a 1:1... That'd be awesome.

Anybody that puts this new Traxxas sand thing down , HASNT DRIVEN ONE !!, just by trying to lift it you would thing it’s a 5 scale gas ran rc , I’ve jumped and pounded this thing around like crazy , no breaks , but I replaced the arms all the way around , right out of the box , I have a huge dirt bike orv park nearby and that’s the last place I’m taking my sand thing , it is a freekn blast of power at my usual Bashn area and I won’t and haven’t had not one front brake issue , I did loosen the brake cables 4 turns instead of the recommended 8 turns and the thing has great breaking , just don’t be throwing stones unless you can replace the windows yourself , me ? I can replace ANY widow

1. iv never dated Rachel Zegler ether, but i know i don't like her.
2. already replaced the arms. starting to sound like a typical traxxas.
3. hell iv got a 1/18 Dromida that's a beast. all RC's are beasts these days. its easier to over power one than not to over power one. and i have a Radio Shack that's so durable its never broken.
4. i can't hear you over the whirling sound of my sling shot. but it's ok cause I'm a television repairman, iv got an ultimate set of tools.

Just got back from a 2 pack run with some guys , still no breaks and I’m hitting the ramp at higher speeds now , getting some good air control on the magma tires , it needs more of a grip tire up front , think I’ll try sledgehammers see what happens , this thing spends allllll day on the wheelie bar , does the whole park in a 50mph wheelie , it’s like Talbot always says the best rc is the one that puts a smile on your face , today I saw several while it was flying around , anybody that says this thing isn’t a Basher does not l know what there talking about

Great to finally have great weather !! Took Sandy out today with a couple other rigs , sandy took a ten yard end to end roll from a long wheelie , no breaks at all , just another way it p eh loves , it CAN be a Basher that thing jumps like a middle , another great two pack day

I put my xrt stock tires on it and it’s a drifting type of racer , really a lot of fun running it on the xrt tires , it’s weight is perfect traction action , my granddaughter Carter was just laughing the whole time driving it with those tires on it , PRICELESS !! Darn thing is worth every penny now strange how some try to find bad in new rc’s , there’s bad in every single rc out there , but with a long senseless stair , I find the technology n thoughts of how to rebuild and recreate ,,, LIKE ANY OTHER RC !!! For crap sakes , but keep staring you’ll find something else that I can finish n fix LIKE ANY OTHER RC !! I’ll be trying the stock tires up front today , maybe better steering on our track , we shall c

I'd love to see some large scale off road races! It would be so much fun to watch a track full of these things banging around to the finsh!!! The crashes and accidents would be fantastic!!!
The problem I have with large scale 'changing personalities' is the lack of selection in bodies and of course the pice tags don't help
I'm glad you're loving this buggy!!!

It looks absolutely huge up on your ottoman!!!

Well ,,,,,, the stock xrt tires are no match for Sandy , tore the thing right off the wheel , mass torque on this thing. , going back to magmas
