I just found out that Ofna makes some foam tires for 1/8 scale buggies. I guess there is an adapter I can get that will let you run these on the Traxxas 1/10 vehicles like the Jato, Rustler etc. I...

A peak charger is a great investment and I really like the MRC960 for price and features. In all fairness to the cheap 15 minute timer charger, the wrench thing is why it destroyed the batteries. ...
Foams are the norm for carpet but I dont know of any foams that will fit on the traxxas electrics. Are there any?
I think Im going to try the Anacondas on stock wheels and also the 30 series Road Rage tires on their new 30 series wheels. The Road Rage feel pretty soft as do the Anacondas.
Thanks for the...
I am looking for recommendations for good tires for use on cement for the 2.8 wheels on an electric rustler, or 2.2 if thats all thats available. I am also looking for good carpet tires for the same...
Racing will be starting at this track in Waterford in a week or so! Check out their website at www.oakhillrcspeedway.com
Theres a real nice track in Waterford PA. Its called Oak Hill Rc Speedway. They have a few tracks. They are worth checking out, in the spring that is!
Their website is Oakhillrcspeedway.com

I just did mine (rockers) tonight. I was doing my RPM arms and thought I would try to dye my long travels that came with the truck, since I wont use them anyway. I went with orange. Well, I left...
Anyone else?
Thanks for the link to those shock covers. I just order a set. $8 including shipping. Cant beat that!
Has anyone tried a color other than black? I am going with dark orange on my Revo, and was wondering how it worked over the gray. I may just try it with my original rockers as an experiment to see...
What is everyone using for long body mounts when using SUV or hummer bodies on their Maxx's? I know a couple of the Proline bodies come with extended mounts, but is there something available alone?...
As posted in the Revo "IMPORTANT REVO INFORMATION" sticky post at the opening page of the Revo Discussion page by Traxxas employee Nitro Chicken.
Wheel Nuts
Running the REVO wheel nuts too loose...
I have found that the wheel nuts on the Revo feel different when being tightened than they did on my Maxx. On the Maxx, a bit soft feeling while being tightened was ok, but not on the Revo. Even...
The crystals, depending on brand, should be marked TX and RX. TX is for the transmitter and the RX is for the receiver. Do you have them reversed? Also, make sure they are 27mhz if using the stock...
Its true that some people do want reverse, even though you might think its retarded. The Rustler is a great first nitro, especially for those moving up from an electric. Most electrics come with...
Im wondering if there will be a reverse option for this new truck. Lots of my customers are turned off by the Rustlers lack of this option. Looks like it shares some Revo tranny guts, so maybe? ...
No shims needed. Per Traxxas, shims are not required to run the 30%. Of course, if the guys I run against at the track want to shim there heads to make their compression lower, Im all for that! I...
Go ahead and use it. I have switched to higher and lower nitro content with no ill effects. Just make sure you retune as mentioned above. Thats it. No shimming, either, its just another myth. I...
Proline Bowties on 40 Series Wheels. Im happy.
Its funny how many people decide they dont want their Revo (actually happens with lots of nitros) after "just breaking them in." I have trouble believing that all these people are selling after...
One other thing to look at is the clutch spring. There is a spring that holds the clutch shoes inside the clutch bell. The shoes dont touch the clutch bell when at low rpms, allowing it to sit...
I have them on my maxx and like them for looks. They add some weight to my truck so performance wise you could do better, but those beadlocks sure look cool. I didnt think they would fit the revo...
I have also seen the starters go bad, sometimes quickly. I believe one of the culprits for this are long periods of trying to start, allowing it (the hand held starter controller) to get hot. I try...
I have them on mine and so far they are working out great. They are good on dirt, but I wouldnt run them on road. You will kill them in no time flat.
