t-maxx tuned pipe

I replaced mine with the CVEC z800. It works great, looks great, and to top it off, it converts yout tmaxx to rear exhaust (no more cleaning that danged gunk off your truck and tire!).

The truth about the t maxx.

I have to say the t-maxx is a hell of a truck! I love mine. All the parts I have replaced have been by choice, I have yet to break anything.

Out of Curiousity...how do you guys clean your Nitro Trucks

n00b mistake (receiver antenna wire)

You are right I could solder it, but it now looks like crap, and is still glued to the tube. I'd rather put it in new. I already bought the tube and cap, what I need is the wire.

Here I go! (Tmaxx2.5 + XTM .21 Conv + Picco .26)

Sorry for the comment, maybe I should not have said anything. I'm just pissed about some of the behavior I see sometimes ("let's see how much damage we can do").

All right, I'll go ahead and call myself an idiot for having done this (I'll save you guys the trouble!): I went ahead and glued the extra receiver antenna wire to the outside of the antenna tube on...

Here I go! (Tmaxx2.5 + XTM .21 Conv + Picco .26)

Don't mean to sound my age, but that kind of stuff is the reason many people don't want to allow RCing in their properties (or the parks they oversee).

There's a park around here (that has great...

Thanks for the info, I have just purchased my CVEC!!!!

It seems, from what I have read, that the z700 first came out, then was replaced by the z800. I have no idea what the difference is, but...
