Couple years ago I jumped into the Radio Control world with both feet. It all started when I purchased a Traxxas 3.3 Tmaxx
It was a great truck and put ALOT of Nitro fuel through it. Also broke ALOT of parts which was why I had a BIG stock pile of spare parts. One night I was bored so I decided to put some of my spare parts together. Next thing I know I had a 2nd Tmaxx :)
Then my buddies talked me into racing with the local RC club and well ofcourse the Tmaxx was no good for that so I had to purchase a 3.3 Revo
But once I watched what it was all about I decided against it (should have done that before my purchase)
So then I had 3 trucks.....2 brand new and one that was beat to Heck LOL so for some reason I thought I needed a 4th LOL To the hobby store I went and out I came with a Jato 3.3
Truth is actually my buddy bought something that was faster then my Tmaxx so I bought the Jato to kick his butt, well......if he didn't blow his motor and had no plans to repair it. So........Jato never got dirty LOL
Then I decided I had a problem hahaha.....So I sold the 2 Tmaxx's and fired up the Revo. Jato still lives in the box but thats o.k......eventually I might get it out again.
Also have a couple electric vehicles
First is a Traxxas Emaxx
Stock
Then I turned it into this
And last but not least, my basement winter racing car :) Its a RC 18 with a brushless motor in it.
Only thing that sucks about it is I can't get a Mustang body for it, but it FLYS!!!!! and is actually alot of fun.
Just looked at all the pictures I posted and they all look too shinny. Have to shot some pic's of the REVO & RC18 but for now here is some of the Old Tmaxx & Emaxx
