its duratrax. its gonna be the big basher and not even close to a good racer and the spur gear and clutchbell are gonna have some grinding problems. the chassis is gonna flex....sure sounds like a competiter to me. considering the only problem with the Maxx is that its A-arms are a bit weak

i bet it would smoke a stock T-Maxx in acceleration and top speed and all of the problems u said are just gueses.

It's astadium, truck, the t-maxx is a monster truck, apples to oranges. the t-maxx has some 3 inches of ground clearance, the duratrax has 1.38. the forward and reverse this is a big ploy to get newbies to buy it. there's only 3 trucks that I know of that have reverse. the t-maxx racers are taking it out to race and they don't hardly use it. the kyosho qrc thing was a simple yet effective design, with optiional 2 speed, and now the duratrax thing. It's an effective ploy though. We'll have to wait and see how it performs on the track. You'd think duratrax would incluse some ball bearing though...

Duratrax doesnt think any of there trucks or cars up by them selfs.

the evader= XXT copy

the nitro saden (forgot name)= nitro 4tec copy

I wouldnt own a duratrax car, but theyre acceseries are great.

The Street Force(Duratrax's sedan) doesn't look anything like a 4-Tec.

beeper, its not all sometimes in looks, they practiclly took traxxas's slogan 50mph+ out of the box, rtr, two speed transmission.

the only car they have that i would have to say is there won creation is the Maximum. Which its just like the st and mt, a chassis with an engine bolted to it. The only duratrax car i would think about owning is the Nitro quake, but it has no ground clearance at all. Like a maxx but i maxx is better off-road than a quake.
