OFNA TITAN
Well i'm thinking about getting the titan twin, but want some opinions first.
How is the suspention?
Is it fragile?
What do you think?
Oh and i am just bashing, and maybe a little bit of racing w/my friends.

RE: OFNA TITAN
ofna makes some pretty good monster trucks but 3rd party support stinks. If you dont plan to do extensive upgrading go for it. If you do plan to upgrade pick up a Savage.

RE: OFNA TITAN
Does anyone know anything about the pricing on the Twin Titan, I have heard that hobby stores will be selling it for just under $700.00, has anyone heard anymore details?

RE: OFNA TITAN
if the gearing is the same 2 engines wont make any difernce in speed than one. But, with two engines you would be able to gear higher so more speed.

RE: OFNA TITAN
Be sure to take whatever I say with a grain of salt. I've been known to be wrong and yes!! more than once. LOL I think the Titan is a pretty strong truck. I've seen it tumble down the hill at the track many, many, many times. I'd be a bit more concerned with the driveline if OFNA doesn't make it a bit stronger. I would think that they would, no?It seems to handle the terrain pretty good for such a big truck.

RE: OFNA TITAN
How big is this to the Associates MT??? Which is bigger. I have seen both but not side by side to compare at different hobby stores. I have not seen either at any track yet. Would like to.

RE: OFNA TITAN
I had a titan deluxe. got rid of it for a savage. the clutches burnt up while breaking it in. i put in some aluminium ones then. the next thing to go was the front dif. i rebuilt it using savage spider gears and put diff lube in both axles.to run the failsafe you need a hump pack, normal batteries not good enough.it did handle good the center of gravity was low could slide it around on pavement with out it rolling.it wasnt the best for jumping it was to heavy.
