I had a Maximum MT and I really liked it a lot. Simple, fast and fun. The Torq .16 is a pretty good motor. I liked my MT a lot more after I converted it to a ST by installing ST wheels. I do recall that for whatever reason, the Maximum jumped great.

The 2 speed transmission on the Pro can be problematic. If it acts up, I would recommend looking at installing a transmission from a Non-Pro Maximum truck. I would also look into installing the big bore shocks from the MT on the front and rear. They are some really great shocks and will provide more dampening than the ST shocks.

I liked mine, but about after 2 gallons, the motor started running and needed replaced so I parted it out.
