So that's

Only $845!!! lol...Damn. Ok so I get the Axial 28 with pull start, and it's only $750.
Decision Time - RobH - 05-31-2006
A couple people on BYT got the Axial 28, neither of them liked it.
Don't forget a 1/8 pipe if you don't already have one, and the picco .28 factory team uses a turbo plug which it does not include. Guy at leisures recommended the OS P7, and I like it. Running 30% nitro.
If you get a pullstart motor, you'll have to get some taller motor mounts, like the ones from the CRT RTR, and you won't be able to run the jammin/king headz/dace one peice mount.

Ugh lol....So this would basically be a -take a month and get money to build this truck- kinda thing right? I'm getting a job I think in the end of June/beginning of July for the summer.

Since Mike hasn't said it already, I will...buy that TTR truggy that's for sale here for $499 RTR and be done! I wish I had the coin cuz I would buy that truggy in a heartbeat! My RC budget is on empty.
Decision Time - Traxxas_Junkee - 06-01-2006
If you part out, put me down for the chassis and motor...
Decision Time - Ponch - 06-01-2006
Haha Kyle you're funny....
Decision Time - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 06-01-2006
revo2k dont overlook that TTR truggy, its and RTR. The motor in is is decent, plenty fror racing. Just put in your own electronics and ur good. And its cheap. You guys dont need to put a .28 in just because its atruggy, the majority of the pros even run .21s because the extra power is un-needed
Decision Time - Michowski - 06-01-2006
+1 on the powerband thing
Decision Time - Ponch - 06-01-2006
Yeah, but I like building kits too though... I was looking at it for a bit though. I just like the look of the Jammin better...
Decision Time - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 06-01-2006
u gotta take it apart and put it back together anyway lol never trust the loctite on an rtr lol ud liek the TTR better im sure
Decision Time - Traxxas_Junkee - 06-01-2006
Why is that funny? I will probally take them.
Decision Time - Ponch - 06-01-2006
I'll (if I do it) just ebay any/everything related to my revo.
