RE: Shocks for monster gt??

Just upgrade the shock body and caps to the factory team aluminum versions. The factory shocks are valved very good from the factory. Also upgrade the springs to the red springs and your good to go.

I recommend you look at ilikenitrocars threads. Most of your answers will probably be found there.

RE: HPI or Traxxas? That is the question.

With the cost being a factor and since you want to race the two you posted are not your best choice. I would have to say the TNX or MGT are your best bet. Those trucks are under 400 bucks and...

RE: Tamiya TNX Pro Racing Edition

RE: ??going revo even though i was so against anything traxxas? ?

The OS .18 TZ and TM are not completly the same. From what I understand the sleeve is also a little different. The TZ puts out a little more power than the TM. You may also have to modify the shaft...

RE: ??going revo even though i was so against anything traxxas? ?

The carbonfiber chassis is fragile. Must haves are P2 rockers,heavier shock oil(I use 50 wt all around), heavier springs, and of course some racing tires.

RE: Traxxas Revo

The revo motor has a very small sweet spot so yes it tends to be harder to tune than alot of other trucks on the market. It is a great truck though,design wise and driving wise.

RE: Best Beginner Truck

The Revo is a great truck but the engine can be finiky tuning wise. If your local hobby store stocks parts for it you will be better off.

But for some unknown reason, I doubt you will get a...

RE: Most Favored Truck

Ilikenitrocars with the parameters you give cost wise the TNX or MGT are your best choices. Now go to your hobby store or go online and buy a truck already.

RE: Who would Win? Jammin with RBWS7II or MBXR2 with Sirio .27

Depends on the driver. Of the two the Jammin handles better.

RE: MGT 4.60 SE or Savage 25

For all the people who recommend the Savage over the Mgt you are not looking at his peramiter. He said he wants to race. The Savage is a great basher but is not a good track truck stock. Yes I agree...

RE: MGT 4.60 SE or Savage 25

RE: THIS IS ABOUT THE MGT

RE: THIS IS ABOUT THE MGT

I don't think you guys realize how fast 50 MPH on a monster truck chassis is(truggys are diffferent). I had my MGT doing upper 40's to 50 mph. It was way to fast for a 12lb truck. Three times out and...

RE: Goodbye Revo- Hello Monster GT....Savage?

The Revo is one of the best handling monster trucks on the market period. All it need is P2 rockers and different weight shock oil(maybe stiffer springs if funds allow). Only monster trucks that out...

RE: Revo vs Savage SS (AGAIN!!!!!) Sorry....

I too do not like traxxas products after owning a TMAXX. But after driving a Revo I purchased one. It is a very good truck. Much more durable than the TMAXX. One of the smoothest handling and...

RE: Truggy Poll!

Yea the Hellfire is the best. I haven't seen one or driven one yet but I know it is the best. Hell the truck hasn't even been released but it is the best truck in the world. GO HPI.

RE: TNX Subforum

The main problem with the spur has to do with the factory screws. They back out and get loose. Causing just enough movement to screw up the gearmesh. First upgrade for the TNX is a screw kit with...

The Tamiya TNX is the only truck that fits your criteria. The revo is slightly over the 400 dollar mark but is also what I think your looking for. Don;t get me wrong the TNX is one of the most...
