My Street Maxx I've been working on - 04-04-2006, 07:54 PM

Here is a T-Maxx decked for street / On-Road action. It's just been a project I've been working on at times. You just don't see Maxxes with a SALEEN S7R body very often. I have more to do, Needs Radio Sysyem & a Decent power plant. Thinking an O.S. .18 TM maybe. Looking to use a Fantom .18 if I can get one in good shape. Hope you like them. They are kinda large ! Sorry









Hope you like it. It's verry different & I like that !!!

nice, my cousin did that with his maxx, he took big zipties and tied the shocks down it never ran. Why not just go with the 3.3?

He said he was thinking about getting an OS .18-TM, so i just suggested getting the 3.3 instead, cheaper and bigger.

Thanks !! I really like having the unique bodied Maxxes. It was on a TC3 you can see the holes cut in it if you look close. It's got an awesome suspension. They are associated shocks with progressive springs for those shocks. It's awesome. This is made of parts I've collected over like 3-4 years. Red Maxxes are kinda rare & the body just tops it on this one. People kinda like the skids too. They are kinda rare !? Here are some body off shots. I'm still unsure on power plants. Not real sure If I'll be stupid with it, or just run it around and play with it. Time will tell ....

That is true. I have 5 complete T-Maxxes right now. Enough parts & stuff to build 2 more. Among other stuff past & present. Funny you mention the track. I just got in tonight from draging the larger area to play with. I need Ideas !!! I'll have pictures of the lay of the ground soon. Hoping for NO rain, but doubt that ! The new area size is 80' x 200'. It looks sweet
