    Well, I don't like traxxas vehicles in stock form. But if I was, for some reason, forced to own/build one. That's what I would do.

    Haahaahaahaa. Still haven't broke my slash yet!!!

    With the exception of bolts coming lost.
    Also I got some rust accumulating from not drying it out properly.

    I do planes, heli's, custom cars/trucks/Rock Crawlers. This Rock Crawler took me a year and a half to build. Started a 1/6th scale Chevy, 2010 Camaro and a Supra for drifting. Also been working on installing auto pilot in one of my heli's and....thats just a pain in the ass all together. But, love this hobby and will do it till I die!
