RE: The Official Traxxas Slash short-course race truck

RE: The Official Traxxas Slash short-course race truck

RE: HBX, Who else owns one??

On my brushless Revo I duct tape the inside of the tires not the foam and that elimates the balooning altogether.

RE: The Official Traxxas Slash short-course race truck
