About a month ago i decided to goto the hobby shop and look around for a few moles etc, and what do u know what caught my eye. The ecx ruckus.. thing just  looks awesome and pretty cool for a monster truck. So after getting my models and looking around for a while.. i decided to buy the ruckus. I couldn't wait to get this thing out and run it.. after unboxing checking everything out and charging up the battery,i was deff outside having fun was the fastest 10 mnutes i have ever had it seemed. Cant tell ya how big of a smile i had on my face.. but the low power of the 20t motor and small esc had me wanting more power quik.. so after frying my motor and esc about a week later, i thought about going brushless. so i went to the local hobby shop and ordered my metal tranny set.. and talked to the lhs about going brushless. What did he have?  the element system . so i got my hands on a 3900kv 4 pole motor and element esc.. just had to wait for my lipo and charger to come in next.. so i finally got the lipo and charger last week. and wow. idk what to say this thing just freakin rips!. about a hour later i already tore out the stock shafts :/ but just waiting to figure out what i should do with these traxxas shafts to get my truck up and running again. but will deff be shating pics and more info as i go./or when i fix or install new things so far im loving it.. feel free to leave some comments or advice thanks...

Looks good but I wouldn't drop a ton of money into it. The amount of cash it would take to make the Ruckus something really special would pretty much buy you a race-grade RC, or a Savage

Yup exactly im not going to put alot of money into it .. just enough to make it more break proof etc.. right now i got mostly everything i want to do to it. a 2s lipo ,brushless system and traxxas shafts.. maybe a good pair of cheap wheels.. so i can actually fit a tire on there.. heard these have a weird bead or something

ThunderbirdJunkie approves of this truck. It just needs a Revo 3.3 Proline Raptor body and some Masher 2000s on RPM Slingshots

What Thunderbird Junkie said. Masher 2000's are the best all around tire for bashing a 1/10 monster truck.
