i like the gorillamaxx for racing inside on the tight carpet truck because of the suspension geometry and it is really lightweight but the integy would definately be better for outside bashing and highspeed racing

Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

I prefer to think of coolhandcountry as our "Stress-Tester" :003:

Electronics run on smoke... if you let the smoke out, they stop working.

Probably a mere coincidence.

This is really the only positive feedback I read about the integy racer ripp off.

But let's face it, everything got a breaking point. If your not going to bash hard(like high jump's) even gpm alum arm's will hold up. But when you put them under stress you will soon know what will be better. And integy it is not.

Well now. I been gone for two days and look. :D I have crashed the suspension the other day. It snapped two pillow balls off in the suspension. I got them out. The arms that broke the pillow balls are still straight. I crashed with 26 cells on the truck. That is alot of weight. For the front knuckles they are different than the ones on site. The suspension is just like the ue. Yes they did copy ue. Did they pay ue to copy there suspension? That is my question.

With 26 cells and a truck that runs 55+ mph it is hard not to break stuff up no matter what kind of suspesion. JMO

I would buy the suspension again. NO questions.


Peace!

there is your proof of its toughness only 2 pillow balls were broken in a 26 cell truck the inertia of a truck that heavy its self would be enough to break it.
Coolhand what motor were you using and how fast were you going when you crashed?

I was test running a 2250 10t with 26 cells on it. :D Not sure on speed. It was moving along kind of quick. I was on the brakes to.

you must have gotten your problem with your 36120 figured out which is good to hear.once you get everything up to par you will need to make a vid showing its awesome speed :004::004:
@ squee i kinda doubt that the 9xl could handle 26 cells for any length of time

Well the problem with the 2250 and 36120 is not fixed. I am closer to figuring it out. Hopefully in anoter couple weeks it will be flying.
