RE: revo wont stay on the ground.
yeah just take off slow and when somebody is looking and says its weak then just punch it so it flips over backwards......... that would always work.

RE: revo wont stay on the ground.
Loosen the slipper off a bit and either
a: buy some weights and fit them somewhere on the front end
b: use something around the house to weigh the front end down

Sit on the front end? Man that sounds like a tough problem, huh? Can't keep the Revo from standing up... DOH!

HUH ^^^ [&:]
Also i forgot you could also go up a few teeth on your clutch bell so then you will loose some low end and gain top end. Just mess around and find a gearing ratio that will suit your needs.

RE: revo wont stay on the ground.
You can put some weight on it in the front or buy a long wheel base chassis for the revo. BallisticBatteries makes a longer chassis and 3Racing will have a long wheel base chassis soon for the revo!

RE: revo wont stay on the ground.
Sorry im not really hijacking your thread but if i were to convert to big block would it work if i geared for extreme speed and lost all the torque by gearing for top end would it still require hundreds of dollars to make my maxx tranny stand up to a bb.
