RE: What is the fastest badest traxxas truck available?
don't get a shumacher, no parts support
Get a T-Maxx (if you want to bash) or a Revo (if you think you might ever want to race)
Those two are the best trucks all round
A jato is like an unguided missle, tires ballon and it becomes very hard to control, btw, if your not too good w/ rc cars yet, the jato will spin out in turns all day long (you turn, it spins out) if you take off and the wheels are turned one direction just a little bit it'll spin out (same with the schumacher)
