I ran my 10T for the first time this past weekend. I was very happy with the trucks handling and results. I had some engine issues all day as I tried to use a very old engine instead of splurging on a new mill, that needs to happen! I had some awkward landings on the very technical track and the durability seems to be on point. The only issue that I’m seeing so far is the body. I slot all of my post holes to accommodate movement and still tore the body at the front posts. I have to decide whether to slot the holes to the windshield or to try laying some shoe goo type material in that area to strengthen it. I also had some melting on the bed from the header right at the back of the engine hole. The bed is very low and close to the header at the back of the engine. I’m not sure yet if it is happening under normal running or only after an impact. The front bumper area of the body is prone to hanging up in the front bumper. This may be causing the bed to push down to the header. More investigation needed.

Try putting some velcro on to take the initial punch on a hard crash. I've started doing that and it helps a lot.

Anybody have any video of running the truck on track?
I plan on getting one this winter to have for next season to accompany my newly acquired MP10 buggy and I'm curious to see it running other then in promo video lol.

Always slot and sho goo around the body holes. I always make a lexan body washer to put on the chassis side also!

Got mine done the week they were available. Ran it for a bit at the local track then got it all cleaned up and ready for the Fall Out arena race over in Washington in a few weeks! Truck was really good right out of the box!
