Primal RC Raminator
Was curious if anybody here has one besides Medic from RC Spark Studios. Looks insane but if a 49cc gas engine can fit in there, maybe we can get Red Beard to ghetto rig a nice engine for it, lets say 212cc engine?

Saw the video, it's too cool...big and loud!
But i think that it could be geared up to get some speed

The engine that comes with it is junk. RCMAX are working on a fitment kit for their big bore engines, so stay tuned on that, it's what this big heavy tank needs lol

you’re speaking from experience?
or are you just claiming that from watching a few videos?
because anybody who owns one knows that the stock engine is more than capable. It gets the truck up to 20-25mph, spins the tires from a stand still, pulls wheelies on grass etc...
its Perfect for learning how to drive this beast. I’m still running the stock engine giggling my butt off the whole time.

Im gonna chime in.. I thought about getting this truck, for a minute. Its pretty damn cool. So Ive done the research. This engine it comes with, I cant seem to find a manufacturers name. When that happens, its usually a cheapy brand. The cost for a replacement engine is 140$. Thats a cheap engine.. Now thats not necessarily a bad thing. To keep costs "down".
Its the difference between my Rovan 36cc and my Zenoah 32cc ....Rovan is less expensive and so the performance is equivalent with price. Just like anything, you get what you pay for. A more expensive engine is going to have tighter tolerances, better plating, stronger materials.....all adding up to better reliability and performance...You dont have to own this truck to know that this engine is less than desirable. At least for some people. Myself included. Dont feel discouraged or offended though., you still have one of the the baddest toys around and the envy of many.

The new RCMAX 80 Supreme for the Raminator has been unveiled by Mike
Now i'm really tempted to buy a Raminator, it will be very pricey though as i have to import the truck, then the engine on top lol

TMR Performance are also doing a v2 engine. Not sure what that's about, probably just some porting and bottom end tweaks. That sounds like a good option to give this badboy some more grunt
Certainly a cheaper option than the big RCMAX 80
