was just wondering I've heard several people claim that their stock revos were pulling wheelies with ease is this just a matter of tuning or am I missing something here I have a older revo 2.5 with the 3.3 motor in it and it's a rare occurance if I pull any wheelies at all.

with the shorter wheel base you should be able to wheelie on demand. its probably out of tune, or your suspension is very soft, or your gearing is too tall. did you ever change the stock gearing (bell/spur).

or you could be running your slipper a bit loose?

i used 16/40 Gearing on my 2.5 with an OS 18TM, I tune, and set the slipper tight, its hard to roll while holding the shaft but it slips, if i loosen it it attempts to wheeli.

Tune, and set slipper, watch out you may strip it.

16/40 with an os.18???dang thats pretty tall for a .18 what sort of speeds do you get? and hows the acceleration?

my revo won't hook up with the stock talons but with any other tire it wheelies on demand....

any tires you recommend? im running in mostly loose dirt and the stock tires just spin

pro line badlands on standard size MT rims with 17mm hexes, excellent all round tire, and great in damp gravel and grass, go down to a 15T cb and you should have no problem, and harder rear suspension wouldn't hurt either.

My revo will pull wheelies from a stand still in grass no problem. all stock.
