i need a new project - 10.28.2007, 10:46 PM

hey guys im not sure if you know anything about me.. but ive been buying/selling a bunch of rc cars that i wanted to do for a conversion but none of them really did its job for me... ive tried 2 bl emaxxes, 2 bl revos, a ofna 9.5, a crt. 5, a supermaxx, an e-muggy, bl rusty, flm pede...
the list could go on forever

anyways.

i will be moving to north carolina with my girlfreind and i need something to do other than her (not meant to be dirty lol) i wont really have too many freinds so i need something to kill time!! i think there is a track so i will be able to go race and maybe make some freinds there... i am giving this project time about 6 months (thats the time when i will be moving) ive sold ALLLLL of my rc stuff (well... about 3k worth) and paid off my real truck so out of every paycheck i will be using some money towards rc. so i have a few questions of which truck to try out...

sorry about telling you my life story just thought maybe you all would like to know lol

ive been doing my best to research some stuff and find out valuable info but there seems to be so many pros and cons for each truck it is really hard to find which one is the PERFECT truck.

everyone has their own likes and dislikes... so here is mine for this project.

-when i buy my roller... i want it to be quality (xt8, mbx5t, 8ight and so on) i am looking for a truck with a very nicely beefed up drivetrain so i dont have to worry about upgrading that.
-i would like for their to be a motor mount in the rcm shop!
-i would really like the "truggy" look
-since i will be spending so much money i want the truck to run nice and smoothe without having to buy a bunch of upgrades for it...
-truck HAS to be bashable. i will be racing this but bashing for the most part.
- i would like for a semi easy project.. i do not want to spend countless hours trying to get everything on and working... i will spend time tweaking it all but ive spent too much time fixing and not enough playing!


most of these are redundant but i just want something that is going to consistantly work.

im not going to buy anything used unless it was very lightly used and ik that it is in great condition.

i have many other things to deal with other than JUST RC (like back in my prime- 2 months ago) so it will be a slow project as stated. hopefully not as slow and gorillamaxxs (i hear yours is almost completed?!!)

i want this project to be a guarantee for me to keep so i dont waste time and money into something i wont use...

here is my thoughts for a project truck
xt8
mbx5-t
8ight (heard these are primarily for racing?)
hellfire?
crt


those are the only truggies i could really think of... hmm..

anyways i was going to probably go neu... what else is there?
and either MMM, quark or mgm... dont really know much about any... ive heard quarks overheat? mgm has breaking problems? idk.

i will be using spektrum in this also.

anyways for you guys who just scroll to the bottom let me know of a awsome bashable easy conversion truggy!!

thanks alot. and sorry for the huge write up
