Re: I bought a Hummer

Sweet! I want a Traxxas. Next is either a truggy or a truck(Revo 3.3). The CT5 is my first Nitro, figured I wanted one that I could grow into but its almost too fast. Taken it out probably 5 times replaced the front bumper (x2) and 1 set of tires. Now after cleaning it I saw that the control arm is busted. Haven't figured out tuning, yet..

I need one that can take the "beginner's" abuse.

Re: I bought a Hummer

I'm thinking of getting a Hummer so I can sit in it on cold days untill my ass and the FJ warms up.

Did you know they make those Truxxus r/cs in Plano? They are pretty sweet looking.

Re: I bought a Hummer



I'm not sure I've ever seen a toy as cool as that right there.

Hey, it's not a toy. Seriously, they are real as any real truck, just smaller. Gas engine, 4WD, disc brake (one brake on the center diff), rebuildable coilovers, electric start, 2-speed auto tranny with adjustable shift point, fully adjustable suspension (camber, caster, toe, preload, ride height), it's all there. No, you can't sleep in it, but you can sleep with it. Not that I would, uhh, know or anything.

Regarding the beginner abuse, we have busted almost everything on the T-Maxx, but nothing on the Revo. Worth every bit of the extra money it costs.
