We all started somewhere, and thats exactly where I started e few years ago now.
I agree 100%. When I first got my Revo, it was bone stock and I was SO proud of it even then. People gave me a hard time too. Now my Revo could thrash theirs several times over. My very first truck was a T-maxx pro .15. Your's could beat my T-maxx even in its stock state. I think the T-maxx is a very good truck. It is simply and easy to work on. For starters I would get some performance upgrades (pipe etc.) and just get an upgrade every once in a while. Before you know it, you'll have a really nice truck!
I'll give it an 8. It is incredible clean and not abused.
