lol wow everyone on here seems to have problems with there tmaxx's. I've had my 3.3 since christmas and only had normal wear and tear and never really broke it to a point that it didnt take 5 minutes to fix and i beat on the freakin thing!!!! With the nitros just make sure you break it in right dont just go run it at full throttle or your engine will be dead as soon as you run it that first time. Take your time and break the engine in right and you'll love any nitro you get. I recommend the redcat product line alot great trucks and great prices, I love my Monsoon!!!!!!!!

P.S. You think you hate your tmaxx just be glad you dont have a duratrax warhead you'd never want a nitro ever again mine spends most of its time on the shelf broken!!
