Unfortunately Matt is at the mercy of the CNC shop owner, which keeps putting his project on the back burner due to more high priority work. I would imagine that it is because he is getting somewhat of a break on the price so he is lower on the food chain. It is taking a while to get it all completed, but this project is a serious one of a kind setup that he has made some very cool (re-designed) changes to, and it is worth waiting for. When he gave us an update last month the parts were about 80% completed, so hopefully we will see some movement soon. Hey Matt any luck yet???

Thanks Matt for the update. Glad to hear that things are still moving in a forward direction. Sorry for your stressful situation. You get delays from him and demands from the guys on our side of things. Thats ok, I aill wait as long as it takes for this creation. Dont let it get to you. Keep up the good work. The pricing sounds very generous.

Is this project dead in the water? Haven't seen anything regarding the new chassis in a while.

I just exchanged emails with Matt a few days ago and he was checking on the CNC progress with the machine shop. The matter is not dead, but he is running into a lot of issues with the shop that he is using. Because the shop is giving him a pretty fair price his work keeps getting put behind higher priority stuff. After all hobby stuff really is not the CNC shops bread a butter. It may still be a while before he sees any of them completed, but he is still working the matter and remains hopeful.

That is one beauty chassis you have there... really wish I could have had something like that when I had a maxx truck.

Cool, that's good to hear, I'm definitely still down for one. Bummer that the shop has been pushing this project back for so many months already.

plettenbergs · 10.15.2009, 08:32 PM

I still have the list with the names and email adresses of everyone who wants one!!The first 12 should be ready soon.Every piece is custom and there have been many CAD drawing changes.....My guy did sayfor me to come by and see the progress ASAP!

IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT!!

FOR SURE!!

DIRECT DRIVE...NO TRANI...MORE DROOL OPPORTUNITIES!!

It looks like a awesome truck but why isnt the motor towards the front . With the definate possibility of the truck doing wheelies with brushless power all the time. My g-4 maxx with setbacks comes up all the time with ease @ 30 mph and it has more weight forward than the maxxler. If it was possible I think designing it so the motor toward the front would of been a definate design improvement. What is the number of teeth on the spur it looks really big and is it steel with nitride coating or some sort of brass alloy.

plettenbergs · 10.16.2009, 08:42 PM

hey River,
i changed several other things about the maxxler but not the motor position...too much of a pain in the ass...my chassis will not have the titanium nitride coateD spur...it will come with the 68 or 72 tooth RR spur gear...they are cheap and easy for anyone to replace...mine will have STROBE!
"Controlled" wheelies are fun as hell anyway!
I want to see a 100mph whelie!

Rivermaxx · 10.16.2009, 09:52 PM

I just want to see 100mph but a wheelie could be catastrophic and be costly.

plettenbergs · 10.16.2009, 10:00 PM

I HEARD THAT!
i hope you have some extra bodies and wheels/tires, there is bound to be some small incidents as you aproach 100 ? those tires are the RIGHT move,they seem a little skinny,i thought they would be wide like a Lambo or Porsche 911?

Bondonutz · 10.16.2009, 10:18 PM

Wow, Sick looking trucks and machine work. Nice !
