    I really wish I could find a d44 front to finish my vs410 build. They are harder to find than a 4 leaf clover

    Went and picked up a new spartan last week, wanted traxxas reliability and it definitely delivers. Shes fast and gets attention at the boat ramp but its honestly not as fun as my rio ep1 that I just upgraded to brushless. I have a creek in my neighborhood that the spartan is just to fast for. I hate how it cant turn it low speeds. Its funner to drive something slow, fast, than something fast, slow. Still loving my udr though!

    Details and price of the SCX? Been looking into a crawler but might wait for the new Bronco TRX4.

    Here ya go. Perfect for the small cricks. I’m not 100% on this one but I have an old school NQD Tear Into with a brushless motor added and it’s loads of fun.

    I have that little jet boat. And it is a blast. Gonna charge up a battery soon and take it into town where they have a whitewater kayak area built into the river. With run off happening I will need to be careful in a shallow pool.


    Last time I played with that boat was the week before my wedding two years almost.... Slipped on a rock walking out of a crick and scratched my face up nice. Wife wasn't too thrilled and I felt super shitty but luckily it healed for the most part

    Is that actually a Proboat branded boat? Not a shabby price for that particular color I linked either.

    59.99 I believe. It came out at the end of the summer in 2019. Yes actually proboat branded. Grey and blue at release. Cool shark bite decals if that's your thing. Included stand to keep the hull protected.

    Thanks, I’m debating just pulling the trigger on a 2021 Bronco TRX4. Really like the body and new features and the aftermarket for the TRX4. Although I could pick up a SCX10 and deck it out with the difference in price. Decisions...

    No worries, either way is a solid choice. I’ve had both platforms and slightly prefer the Axial. Cheers!

    Wanted to change it up a bit with Bomber, so I cut up a Proline F100 body to fit around the cage. I might put the spare tire back on.

    Good to know. Never was into crawlers till I got a SCX24. Still doing some research and figuring out what I need and want. Love the small scale and looking for a 1/10 for camping and random trips to the woods.

    Probably about 6 months with the lights installed now and I'd totally do it again. It seems like it's always dark out before I have some free time to mess around with the defender.
