        Some time ago I broke the front bulkhead on my Tmaxx, I upgraded them along with the bumpers and front & rear skid plates also.

          Took my XV-01 completely apart and cleaned all the pieces, Itll stay missing parts like this till winter probably. Need a New pinion and spur, again, motor plate and motor plate cover. Some new wheels, tires, and probably a body. Might grab both steel diff gear sets and some 15000 weight oil.

            That looks like a fun one!

            I'm seriously considering selling my e-maxx. It's still messed up bad from vacation, so I'm considering a as is sale. MM2 kit, just needs front bulkheads, new control arms, 1 or 2 replacement big bore shocks, skid plate, and chassis.

            I would fix it, but I just don't feel like it.... And my S4 has taken lead for tinker time. Hell I've been considering selling some guns so I can focus 100% on the Audi.

              You need to get an XV-01 like me and a S4 body lol. Rally S4.

              I want a normal E30 body or something more rally but the options are limited to lancias, subarus, and evos, it seems. Id really like an 80s Celica Group B or RX7 Group B.

                I picked up a DT03 brushless a few weeks ago, then in Munich I saw a new DT03T kit for €48 so I picked that up too.

                My question is which rc forums do you guys find to be he most helpful? Which on is the 'r3v' of r/c?

                  I have not found a great forum yet, but I use RCCrawler's rally section.

                        Rcgroups is a good website that I use for anything rc related.

                          It has been forever since I last looked at RCs, I think I want to pick up some sort of monster truck this Christmas, lipo sounds fast and fun. What would you all recommend? Want something cheap to fix when it breaks and really tough, can take a good beating. What's a good starter budget nowadays? I haven't messed with building any RCS for the last half of my life, so I may be a little outta touch with the times.
                          ...what hasn’t been done to an m20 yet?

                              They are well engineered but if you try hard enough you can still break them. Good bang for the buck for sure

                                I've owned a Bandit, Rustler, Stampede, and t-maxx from Traxxas. I've raced with plenty of slash owners, although I've never owned one myself. I would say you probably can't go wrong with a slash. Durable enough for bashing out of the box, and can be modified to be fast enough to race.
