Default Topeka monster truckin'.......

Alright, I know some of you have 'em, so lets drive 'em!! Use this thread to meet up with others, set bash dates, whatever.

I have a T Maxx right now, soon to be sold, replaced by a Revo, and possibly an E Maxx.

I'm down to one Maxx now and one rustler. I'm game to meet some offroaders to bash with. I plan on posting a sign similar to this in the hobby shop in Junction City this week if the owner will let me.
I'm in Manhattan
I've been to deeandmee's track in topeka a couple times but thats it.
Anywhere else?

Thanks

I'll probably run my Maxx a couple more times before I sell it. Mail me, and we can set something up.

I know of a couple of ppl who sold their Maxx's to get Revo's and wish they had them back.
I'm not a racer so I'm content with my Maxx, ya know.

I had considered that, I was hoping it wasn't the case. I still want to at least drive one, maybe those who don't like it are wrong......................

Good side of keeping the Maxx would be that I know the weak points(diff gears, bumper mounts).

Well considering how much alot of people have put into their Maxx(with racing or just for looks pieces), its not likely that many of them will be too satisfied with the stock Revo.

But once the aftermarket catches up with the Revo.....watch out. Those same people will start to love it.

That's probably right. I liked my STOCK Maxx, but the modded one is sick, and I'm still running the 2.5. I want an electric solid axle truck, like a TXT1 for rock crawling, but they're damn expensive.

I bought a sirio pipe and that's when the bug bit me. Loved the sound and power so I got the .18 Sirio. Didn't even get it broke in and I wanted more so I got the XTM conversion and 24.7 engine in my other Maxx. It had nasty torque but it loved to self destruct after that so I sold it. I didn't screw the buyer though. It was running very nice when I sold it and he is still happy with it. Now I have my Sirio (awesome) and 2.5 Rustler (crazy) and couldn't be too much happier. LOL



SOLD

Decided to FOC my Sirio Maxx like I had done with my 24.7Maxx. I remember how quick it engaged, so it will be cool to have another FOC'ed T-Maxx.
