If my LST or Savage were to hit anything that hard they'd be mangled, twisted wrecks. I know this because they've both been wrecked at around 25 - 30 and required extensive repairs. I cannot see the Revo or Maxx faring much better.

For the record, I've never had any Integy parts and I'll not buy any either. I figure there's a reason they've got so much bad press. The old saying "where there's smoke, there's fire" has a basis in fact.

Status: offline 		Well i was out at the track yesterday and wouldn't you know it, within 5 minutes, another of my shocks had come apart. So I put the stock shocks on for the night and ran it with a sagging rear end for the rest of the night. when i got home i pulled all of the shocks off and JB welded all of them like the one pictured on my previous post. Now i guess i can expect to see the rods break. By the way...i got my new 3.3 extended chassis in, as well as longer drive shafts and steering arms. I'm excited to see a difference in handling and less wheelies. Now i have to paint yet another body.

Status: offline 		You should post some cool pics after Steven when its done.

Im in the process of painting mine now...its going to take so long, just applying the masks and working out what is what and where and why.

What and how are you going to paint yours Steven...? is the crownd pleazer for the 3.3, or JConcepts Illuzion Body for the Revo 3.3 or something personal...?

Status: offline 		I just finished mine tonight...its a bit rushed but who cares, its just a race chassis and not really for the whole expert visuals yet, especially when its going to get seriously trashed. But it looks good so far.

Status: offline 		Yeah I was trying to take it off topic so the MOD would just kill it...EVERYBODY hates INTEGYllence...I saw their new offerings and the material quality is of course better but the overall design and finish is typical Integy as well as having no design evolution and moreover, not listening to what the customer wants...etc etc etc.

Status: offline 		integy blows i could get better customer service from a room full of monkeys. i have hade 2 sets of mini t alloy drive shafts fail on me and didnt get the replacement parts through them for free because i used it "knowing they where defective" as they said and i was like **** how am i supposed to tell that their its impossible to see their defective. I was lucky enought to have bought them through towerhobbies where they sent me the replacement sets for free. thank god they did knowing how good of a customer i am!

Status: offline 		Integy stuff is fine if you use it for what it's intended. Read some of their ads and it states "SHOWTRUCK" items. Anybody that knows anything at all, knows aluminum is not for bashing. It bends or breaks and costs more to replace. If you want to bash, buy RPM accessories. Sure it may not look as nice as Aluminum, but what do you want to do, look at it or bash it?
