    Holy hell those are some cheap batteries! Under $100 for a charger and 2x 4k batts. Hopefully they come back into stock soon. For now I'll need to see if my local track even runs 2wd stock buggy. Otherwise I might need to pickup a 4x4 SC to race with... 0:) Another money pit yay!?

    THESE are the best they have in stock right now. I've one and another 2S 25C 4000mah in a slightly smaller case. I couldn't be more pleased with either of them.

    I get about 20-30 min of runtime out of my SC10 running a 3800kv castle brushless system per battery. I can tell that the 30C (one in the link) has just a little more punch than the 25C.

    I'm waiting till they get the 65C 5000mah and 40C 5800mah in stock to buy more, though.

    It can be done. My brother has a Hilux on his scx10. Will post picture of his when he finishes it. Rccrawler.com will have you drooling...

    I love that guy's rig - I wish I had the dough to put into mine to do that.

    It'd be pointless though, as I am about to put 2.2s on mine and that will take away from the scale look.

    Yea it's really nice out here in KY for things like that because there really aren't a whole lot of people. Lot's of space.

    I have a Baja 5Bss; nothing like the sound of a 2-stroke.

    Cross-overs are cool, we've got one that we've set up a couple different ways. I'll be willing to bet that those cross ties will be collecting some a-arms and or bulkheads.

    Yea, I've been trying to tell them that. I think they might be putting some drain pipe or something around it. I'm not sure that everyone's gonna be able to clear to crossover. That's a pretty big gap. I know I'd have to really goose my truck to clear it.

    You can "tune" the launch ramp with a little more dirt and form a lip, clearing it won't be a problem, just make sure (of course) the landing is lower.

    Hey guys, I have a question. I have a savage x ss and a t-maxx pro. 15 that havent run in a few years. I'm trying to sell them because I never use them anymore and I have too many rc's to count. They come with a custom box to ship them around and a ton of misc tools....how much do you think I can get?
