Default RE: Question for first truck


ORIGINAL: Evil Genius jr.

Ok I will keep that one in mind. I found a traxxas slash for cheap. How do the two compare?
never driven one. i have issues with traxxas (mainly some traxxas owners) that i wont discuss, but the slash is like most of their products; overpriced for what you get, incompetent on the track (anyone who says the win with a traxxas are either A) full of it, B) racing against other traxxas rc's C) racing against drivers more interested in crashing or dont know throttle control, D) can race a toy grade against an rc12r5 and win by 5 laps or E) got very lucky), is sold by gimicks and sold to people who dont know much about the hobby.

getting a traxxas isnt the absolute worst thing you can do, espesially with parts support (you can quite literally go to pep boys, get spark plugs for you car/truck and a shock tower for you truck).

ALL COMMENT IN THIS POST ARE MY OPINIONS. I AM IN NO WAY CLAIMING MY OPINIONS ARE FACT. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY OPINION, KEEP IT TO YOURSELF.
