Traxxas Truggy vs HellFire Truggy

[Mike.L]

i also for bl maxx.

if you get the good stuff:P then no doubt the maxx will win

[Re~Mix]

With the slipperential and all, I know I'm possitively drooling all over the trucks on these forums. It's simply a work of art, gorrillamaxx, rc-monster, and lehner/neu/quark.. a combination too good to be true.

If you going to keep it nitro instead of converting. Why post it in the brushless
section.

thread moved to truggy section.

i posted here because it involved a bl maxx

i would search for a 1/8roller and convert that cause unless u are going to race in unlimted 1/8 truggy is going to take over

Get the hellfire, run it nitro until you get tired of tuning and cleaning, then convert it to brushless. Most truggies have the same basic layout and are more stable than a maxx conversion IMO. I have an emaxx and a LSP, and the LSP is night and day a better handler than the emaxx, plus it will be cheaper in the long run converting a truggy to handle brushless power than bulletproofing a maxx.

The official rule governing MT or truggy is, how the motor mounts. If, with wheels removedand suspension compredded, tie motor mounts 1.50" or below, its a truggy, if 1.50" or above its a MT.

If keeping nitro with eventual (maybe) electric conversion, I'd go revo. I got to see Steve Slayden and Mike Mattille run at a MT extreme race in north Ga,they were 1 and 2 till Slayden broke a part in the rear suspension and had to drop out. Mike had 4 laps on second at the 40 minute mark (45 minute race) when the front suspension broke, still won by 2 laps, over a few LST's
