New Traxxas truggy????

[Surchaufeur]

Arrma poke the bear a bit too much hope they get their game up. They have been lacking lately

@CameronCodes it looks like a GIANT MONSTER BUGGY.

I wonder how this will compete with the Kraton 8S? I have not seen an MSRP yet.

It looks interesting. Might get one and see how it stacks up to my K8.

 

[Clubin]

I’ll buy one.
Ok

 

[MrTitanium]

Not because it’s a Traxxas, but it just doesn’t appeal to me. Pass.

 

[TheBadazz]

Here's the price. No thanks!

 

[Matt05]

I’ve seen pictures of a black one, which I would prefer, but if no black, it’s gonna be green for me.

 

[CrashBoom]

Dammit, intriguing.

 

[#ARRMArcfanboy4life]

I want one. I probably won't buy one (I just bought a limitless), but if it is better than the x-maxx, I might buy one.
@slick2500 please merge the threads about this car.

Looks good! I just might get a rid of my Outcast 8s and try to get this.I'm honestly tired of destroying Diffs and the center diff. Come on now! After doing some minor upgrades on my X-Maxx, the drivetrain has been very durable. Much more durable than the 8s Arrma trucks! Bar none. It's lighter too. My Arrma 8s trucks and the Xmaxx both run giant motors and electronics, but the Xmaxx has been way more reliable for me at least.

Watch the video. Can not do a back flip just like the Hoss. Lands on top and breaks two things. Traxxas at its best.

@LicketySplit you definitely need it!

The K8S stock couldn't even wheelie when it came out . At least mine couldn't.

From what I have found about HARD bashing 8s cars, the 8s x-maxx is better than the arrma 8s. I am guessing the same is true here.

For 25 foot jumps and even concrete landings, I'd say yes. You would have to spend around $3k for the Arrma 8s trucks to be insanely durable and take 30+ and 50+ foot jumps, BUT, that doesn't fix the diff bolts from coming loose all the time after like 5 runs. Including the center diff. I've tightened those things down with all my might, and I have used red loctite. I also upgraded the diff cases to aluminum. And those bolts still come loose. Maybe it's the XLX2 and 1100kv Castle motor my issue? Not sure. But I'm frustrated with that. Imagine spending around $3k between both my Outcast 8s and EXB K8S, and I have that issue going on. I've damaged at least 3 centers diffs too!

The weight is the factor.

The weight is the factor.

And flex.

 

[Armarookie43]

I'll add that I've spent around $2.5k in upgrades for my X-Maxx, but they were worth it.
