We have been running one for about a year it is my grandson"s we like it has done good for a 10 yr. old. if you are going to buy a redcat soon i would wait for the new XT buggy to come out it is lighter and cheaper and will make a better racer and basher we have been bashing the prototype XTB for awhile and i love it. The TT in the pic is a V-3 i have included a pic of the redcat XT buggy

Yeah, I agree with racetruck...
I'm about to convert my Dune Runner to a TT(should be completed next week) but I want to get a XT for something lighter.

The is a guy named squirrel that has a long youtube series reviewing the TT so you may want to check that out!

The price is 500.00 for the XT buggy. Here"s a video of the redcat XT truck prototype that rob64n and myself have been playing with since the power jam race in june i was doing a little playing at a parking lot

bbuzzard cant wait to get his XT! He thinks it'll help him beat my FG baja..hehehe I say bring it! @fourwheels0 I have the Redcat MT v1 and after 2years of trial and error it's finally running good, the TT v1 didnt suffer from as many problems as the MT did due mainly from the tire size difference- If they had originally came out with a better body for the TT I would've gotten that.

All of the early reviews do look very good for the XT, especially with the belt drive hop up- I'm looking fwd to this so I can install it on my MT! Good luck with whatever one you choose-

PS: We should all get together when this weather warms up. I know bbuzzard and sherv will be down for a good race!

noyb98098 i'm actually looking at the tt v3 not sure how much different it is from the v1 you mentioned.
but the xt does look good so far and if it is $500 on the street that's even better for me.
i have my 5t for now so i'll wait and see what the first impressions are on the xt.

we're running friday and saturday 11am-3 or 4pm both days this week if you guys feel like a road trip. temps are gonna be in the 50's.

I have 2, both V1 versions, really like them both, doesn't really have the top end of a 2-wd, baja but the handling is great. Just heard about the XT/XB sounds great. plus' are that parts are easy to get, easy to work on, some Baja parts work on it. New things under development from the aftermarket side is a belt drive and a 2 spd. conversion.

no problem buzz, just giving you guys an open invitation. we are picking up a huge drivers stand and a lot of pipe in the morning. one of the guys who had a track in the area a few years back is giving us the stand and pipe. we will have things good to go when you have time to make a visit. i think fourwheels0 is looking for fresh blood! you guys have a nice holiday.

That sounds good to me I just bought the Rampage TT V3 with the JetPro exhaust and I am impressed.
But it probability wouldn't take much to impress me because this is my first 1/5th scale vehicle.
I have about 30 1/10th scale cars. I just wish I would have known about these big boy toys a long time ago.

With JetPro Pipe and tuned RTR cost $800 total including tax.

I only have about 10 to 20 minutes of play on it because I didn't pick it up until 8pm EST 01/ 03/ 2011 so didn't have time to play. But will make time tomorrow.

So everybody Have fun out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


By the way does any one out there actually know what the TT stands for in the name ( Rampage TT ) of this vehicle. Just courious is why asking?????????????????
