it just run 2 tanks through my baby , my dad got another servo for me the other day after work so i installed it and ran it. I also lowered the ride height the other night, and I think its about ready to go to the track and race Handling is awsome, it does push a little on the throttle(most racing fans know what I'm talking about#8 baby) but the sidewall flex seems to help it out some, and it can cut very short off the throttle. It did stall once or twice. Today was forecasted to have a heat index of 100 [sm=sunsmiley.gif], could that be the reason? If not could someone help me with needle settings?

Overall, I fell back in love with her.

not once did i hear u say what the temp of the motor was running so i guess we can assume that u dont have a temp gun??????? i know some ppl that say "the temp guns are junk and they would never use them" but it allways seems that those ppl are the ones that die 3 laps into the main...... experience will get u close but still it is nice to know exactly how hard u are pushing it ... my 2 cents.
bash on..........

My Feedback: (1)

Screw that lol, thats what i use to do when i was like 11. Way to much work when its 90 degrees out.

no temp gun, i wish i wouldve spent the extra money to get one, I'll get one eventually.We do the spit test every once in a while like when refilling, most of the time it take 2 or 3 seconds for it to fizzle away, but yesterday i did evaporate a little quicker, but it was hot hot hot.

HPIDUDE

lazy bum... I have $500 from mowing thats in one month

bamaracer0

thats alot, you could go buy a REVO! or wait a month and buy a LST or REVO and make it a race dominator

I mow my grandmothers yard once a week for 10 dollars, thats the only persons yard I mow. If your too lazy to mow yards, your too lazy to lay on the couch.

i've had two rtrs and i am fed up with them I'm saving up for a BK2,MF2,Drake,or MBX-5

Just finished putting a quart through it, stalling minimizes every time i run it. I guess its the enigine opening up. It was still no the hot side today.

Now that I've had time to run it a good bit, its about time to post up my review[sm=thumbup.gif]

I'm gonna try and take her to the races next saturday if any lhs has some. I'll tell ya'll how it goes.

Good luck with your Revo. I am hoping to recieve mine by next friday
Thanks for the heads up on the servos and the screws guys.

I will do a review on mine after i put my time in. I previously owned:
Storm buggy, Mamoth, EK 4 (a riot), Twin Titan (eats drive trains) and for a brief time a T Max.

I am a little leary on the Traxxas 2.5 engine and was thinking about replacing it.
Any one with exsperiance with the 2.5[8D]

HPIDUDE

check out www.nitroreview.com guys there say the engine sucks

bamaracer0

the low end during break-in isnt that great, but it does seem to get better...top end SCREAMS.

HPIDUDE

does it hold a tune well, and what temps does it run. They were the main problems w/ the 2.5

RedDawg303

the engine is a screamer but im still not much of a fan of it, i am one of those victims that had premature engine wear, but just today i got a wasp .18 and im installing into my nitro rustler, 9 months after the trx2.5 craped out. i will send it in for a new one eventually, but i decided to have some with it before it did that, go to rcpics.net and do a search for trx2.5 and you will see.

HPIDUDE

cool ill check it out

HPIDUDE

you crazy sob, that was funny

RedDawg303

lol ya, it was kinda scary because that thing was really winding out the revs, i was trying to get the conrod to snap and shoot through the crankcase, but instead i melted a hole in the bottom of the crankcase.[sm=stupid.gif]

HPIDUDE

a vid woulda been cool, but oh well, did it just stop or what

RedDawg303

it craped out after the hole was melted in there.

HPIDUDE

next time you destroy something....make a vid, im going to bed now good night

bamaracer0

how am i supposed to know, im a r/c noob. According to the spit test it would take 2 or 3 seconds of the spit to fizzle away, but yesterday and today, it seemed a little hotter.

HPIDUDE

get a temp gun

bamaracer0

I didnt know that smart ass.

I do wish I wouldve gotten one, I'll pick one up someday.

HPIDUDE

okay, you asked a question I gave you an answer, everyone runnig nitro should have a temp gun
