it's longer than a stock e-maxx, 2wd, but weighs less than e-maxx, heavier than normal 1/10st...this truck is 1/8th

maxamps 3s pack will be used since i've already got em(8000mah), and will pickup mamba max esc, what motor should i use? can't be smaller than l series if i want torque...really could use xl series to be honest it's a huge truck

any suggestion would be greatly appreciated..thanks

Im not sure that the truck can handle a high powered BL. May the novak 5800 might work on the truck. Parts for that truck can be hard to find.

lol i know....but i am gonna put a different diff and eliminate the slipper...should be ok on decent setup..maybe i'll just get a novak hv maxx those aren't aht powerful

truck looks good, looks like you have the the bajaking. I actually have a thunderking and those trucks are durable. I havent run the thing in like 10yrs though.

I think you are right, the novak hv should be enough power for it, especially since they are 2wd.
