www.rcnutshobbies.com or try www.rushrc.com
Rush has the best prices I have seen but rc nuts says they will beat any price on the net.
Good luck

Thats the Traxxas Monster Buggy. I haven't heard much good about them, the parts are hard to get and not many aftermarket parts/accessories available.

The Traxxas Monster is the same as the Carson Comanche, that is a hot seller in Europe.

They are both the Monster versions of the FireHammer, SmarTech Traveller or Carson Attack. Upgrades for those will fit the Monster cousins.

Be aware that the clones can use the same rear end parts(except for the diff) a the FG Marder, Beetle and Leopard, but the Clones has a front end, that is compatible with the FG Touring Cars.

I don't think the Traxxas buggy is the same as the Firehammer, attack, or traveller. It doesn't look anything like them. The engine recoil is on the left side on the Monster Buggy and its on the right side on all the others. Just a totally different machine alltogether.

There is no problem with parts. I just call Traxxas and they are here in a couple days. I had some problems with it when I got it 2 years ago but Traxxas was very helpfull with free parts. Some of the part I needed have been upgraded, and do not give me any more trouble. I now have many hour on it without a problem. I would like to find someplace that I can get tires cheaper than buying them directly from Traxxas. Anybody help me with this. Roger
