New VXL Rustler guy
 

Well I sold my Slash and ordered up a VXL Rustler. I should have it by Thursday and will be running the Medusa I had in the Slash and the MMM. The VXL is going in the Slash and then shipping out to the buyer. The Rustler really is more my driving style. I am a basher and love to wheelie and do high speed runs. My buddy has a VXL Rustler and it does everything better than the Slash jumping included.

So I ordered up the following:
RPM motor protector
Wheelie bar bumper mount
caster blocks
wide front bumper
A arms all around
Traxxas wheelie bar.

I will eventually get the rest of the RPM stuff front/rear bearing carriers, front/rear shock towers, and the camber links. Hopefully it will be virtually indestructible.

I had two Jato's one being a 2.5 and the other being a 3.3 and really love the driving characteristics of those. So I am really looking forward to getting this!! With the Medusa and MMM I should be able to run pretty fast and hard and still be efficient. I will be running the 32 pitch gears on here too.

ESC, RX, mounted up. The Monster Mamba Max sure looks mean on the little Rustler.

I had to rob the rear shock tower off the new Rustler to put on my Slash that I sent out today.

Ahh jeezzz... You do this kind of stuff in the garage or shop for the sole reason of not having to clean up!! :lol:

That looks great. I like the motor choice and your esc choice is definately adequate. If you ever want to trade your mmm for my mm just let me know... The mm would feel more at home then your mmm feels...:rofl:

I would but it is cold out, not to mention my workbench out there needs a good cleaning.:smile:
