Now all we need for traxxas to do is come out with a brushless e-maxx or Revo.

that 70 mph claim is worse BS than most of their speed claims

you have to gear it 31/73 and run a huge lipo pack to get those speeds

on 6 cells its only good for a claimed 35

I'm sure. But on the Stampede/Rustler, you need 11.1V LiPo and gearing it to the moon to get that sort of speed.

And it's funny how they only show it wheelying on Asphalt. Suggests it's not good enough for dirt, huh? Could be the stock tires though.

I like the new paintjobs and the bulletproofed tranny.

even if you can gear it to the moon 31/73 you can only run it there max 2-3 minutes with out it overheating. dont know why they do that... in that case gear the mamba max 5700 with a 3s LIPO 31/73 and you will do 100 mph... my 6900 will do 80mph and my nemisis will do 70 mph etc, get the picture.. come on traxxas sell the fact is a tuff truck with brushless but dont sell a speed it cant maintain.

Tower will not list a new item until the manufacturer establishes a list price.

Traxxas forums say that it should be about $300-$350 for it. Rediculous IMO.
