Duratrax Maximum ST
Ok I recieved this car along with another from my neighbor a LONG time ago.... its been sitting (stripped for servos) and I was wondering if anyone knows:
1, any weak spots on the car (anywhere, for general driving around) 2, do they make parts for the car 3, is it worth my time and $$$$ to get a nitro engine for it and poke around the yard with [&:] It looks like a fun car but I dont want to go dumping $90 into it (new motor) and find out it killed something 10 mins into the break in [:'(]. Looking over the car it seems to be in good condition but looks can be deceiving |
RE: Duratrax Maximum ST
If you had a motor,I would say its worth it.I had two of themback in the late 90's,i still have one thats modified to electric.Heres the cons of that truck.
Thin chassis with almost no support,it flex's alot and will strip you spur gears,Plus if you hit something head on the chassis will bend out of shape easily The Composite spur gear is weak and strips easy,I dont think there was a steel replacement,I tried to convert mine to a Traxxas Rustler spur but the traxxas was too large,But im sure theres a spur out there somewheres to fit. The engines didnt last long and ran hot,both of them,Im a very experianced nitro guy.If you get a new engine and you stay away from high output engine,like the Traxxas 2.5...it will kill the tranny/spur Goodluck |
