Everything looks awesome on this thing except the cheap ass wheels and tires. I want one and then get some terra crushers also probably get the scale shocks from rc4wd.

So it looks like those kits on ebay are legit. lol Those builds are cool but I like the one on the tamiya site better. Something about the original TXT-1 terra crushers.

I think once you get rid of the stock wheels and tires the truck is really nice...I like the new chassis better than the old one, looks more realistic IMO...I also like the new shock setup on this truck better than the TXT-1... If its too bouncy you can take the springs off of 4 shocks......I didnt really expect Tamiya to give us something BRAND NEW and Brushless capable trans...but Im happy they brought the TXT back, I never got to have a stock TXT so I might grab this later this year
