Project : DuraTrax Maximum ST

[Greg_Hager]

Why dont you guys do a MST as a project truck ? It has an impressive list of hop - ups available , and i have NO IDEA why people give it a bad wrap . Whay do you all think ?

I think it ' s a great idea . I think the Duratrax stuff gets a bad rap because they are RTR . Same reason that Traxxas always gets bashed . Oh well , something we RTR buyers have to live with . It would be great to have RCCA do a shootout of all the recent RTR kits . It would have to include the RC10GT RTR , the new Kyosho Readyset GP , The Traxxas Nitro Rustler , The Duratrax Maximum ST and maybe the new HPI Nitro Rush if they bring out an RTR version . That truck looks good . Something tells me the AE would probably win though , bushed tranny and all .

It would be an excellent idea to do another RTR shootout on the magazine . There are so many new RTRs coming out in the market today . And if the staff makes one , make sure to include the T - maxx , it ' s RTR too Chucksolo .

Yeah , the T - Maxx is RTR , but I was thinking along the lines of a Stadium Truck Shootout . The Monster RTR ' s would be a separate issue .

Nice list you got there Greg ! I like the effort and I want the RTR shootout badly .

[Greg_Hager]

If ya want to RCCA , you could send a couple RTR ' s down here in ky and I could test them for ya . : D : D : D : D If not , hey , can ' t blame a guy for tryin . : P
