because the electric start is heavy and a waste of space.

i would nt get a genises till they address all the problems they are having with the truck. the lst would be a great choice but you might have to wait a bit seeing how most likely all the first trucks are spoken for.now the tnx would be a great truck to. i have one and have nothing bad to say about them.

i hadn't really considered the tnx but i keep seeing great reviews about it and $379 shipped, wow, can't really beat that, especially since it is a quality piece.

i'm very tempted to order one today.

possible to broadcast his id and name , addresss ..... etc

Is his paypal account verified and confirm ? , check it out and make a fraud report to them , do what you can in your capacity to get back your money .Paypal offers more help to US rather than in other countries

This f**kers really need to be shot , tortured , parade them on streets

So would this be a good one for a beginner? My LHS stocks them.

I'm into Heli's, and Planes.. But have never owned a car/truck or anything
ground based.

Thanks!

Okay!! Great to hear... My LHS has both the MGT and the TNX, But being a long time flyer... I'm leaning toward the OS engine.
Been there done that!!



Thanks for the info.. I think I'll give them a call!

This is a pretty good article showing what tips and tricks Mr Jun used. I have powerstroke shocks on the way based on what the guy are saying on terracrusher.net, and the Tamiya article just makes me feel better about my choice. I have mulcher tires on the way, cuz nothing else works at my track. I might try the weight saving tricks, and the radio box/battery box relocation thing, and the rotostart, but the truck is so damn light already I love this thing.

I'm SOOOOOO tempted to buy a TNX, but the REVO is so cool too... I guess it just comes down to pricing, apparently the TNX and REVO are almost exactly the same for performance. This will be my first real R/C. Any tips for an absolute newbie? (besides my 14 years experience with toy R/Cs)

Tamiya is apparently going to start including a Tuning/"look how good this truck is" DVD with the TNX, should be helpful to newbs like me!
