What truggy as a basher? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-09-2007
mugen is a good truck, throw in a werks .28 which can be had for like 200$ and ull be set, the JP3 pipe blows on just about every pipe so dont bother. Id pick up a TTR long pipe, seems to work well on just about every engine Ive had.

ya mike i was im'ing you about the werks engines. And ya i definitely want a mugen as a racer.

finally you came around....yeah i would say to get a mugen, just because it basically drives itself from what i hear whereas losi you need to be a little smoother

ya i decided just to screw the dirtbike thing for now, keep my old one, get my new oakleys, and a mugen setup for racing. But this means your gonna have to start bringing me to the track again.

on second thought how about you screw the idea of racing r/c and just dirtbike.....i bet mike would agree....lol
What truggy as a basher? - motoxer4life - 07-09-2007
i prolly should agree to it would save me like $1500...

if you want to bash, go buy a nikko, why tear up a race bred vehicle? JMO
What truggy as a basher? - hansarvin - 07-09-2007
that's what I thought too when I sold my Mugen... huge mistake they're just as if not more durable than any MT
What truggy as a basher? - motoxer4life - 07-09-2007
I decided to race now since i have to save up for a real car. Im waiting till after i get a car to get the dirtbike.

because race bred vehicles are also extremely durable.

if you want something to tear to pieces, why not get like a jato? or something cheap? sorry, maybe its just me that doesnt have 600$ to throw on a kit to jump trashcans in the alley, but after all, it is your $

It's Robs team that I once was on (kinda bailed since then...) but it's in his sig..

Jatos arn't nearly as durable or fun. It'd be cool to have one to mess around with for a while, but I wouldn't take one over a truggy.
I don't see whats wrong with bashing once in a while even if you're a racer. I've broke more parts on my CRT racing it twice, than I have going to the woodridge jumps like a dozen times (never broke anything there).

Rob, you have to factor in that you were trying to b-flip off an indoor jump landing on concrete like clay at the track...lol

What starterbox's are you guys all using for mbx5t's? i want to use 2 stick packs with it, 3600's.
What truggy as a basher? - motoxer4life - 07-09-2007
will this one work?
i dont want to get the mugen one and mess up the build and have it not work so this one would be good.

I wasn't counting that day, and I didn't break anything when I did that. I ended up stopping cause I ran out of fuel and it was time to close.
