Yeah got it from a local hobby shop, he had a lil of everything, it was heaven when i walked in lol...Yeah it was between the T-Maxx 3.3, Revo, Axis Crawler, or the MX monster, the mx monster is twice the size of the t-maxx has 9" tires, just huge, but i wanted a T-Maxx 3.3 for awhile now so i went with that!

you are gonna love it. i used to have a traxxas t maxx 2.5 i believe and that thing hauled and it was fun jumping it off of stuff. it was a wheelie monster to. the nitro was kind of a pain since i am used to electric but you get the hang of it. have fun with it. makes me miss mine... how much that cost ya?

nice truck i got 3 of them i been in to rc for a long long time. watch the gears on the truck . and make sure u get that electric starter off bro switch to pull start. that electric starter is a waste of time and money . u gota have a battery pack all the time . with a glow starter the battery will last longer then a battery pack.

revo's are awesome...i used to have one but i got rid of it because i dont have enough room for it...nitro is fun but if i ever got another r/c it would be electric...i have a 6000 mah lipo that lasted for a good time on my e-maxx with the novak hv 4.5 brushless setup...i now run a axial scorpion with it and i have yet to drain it...the longest i have ran it is 3 hours straight and it was still going strong...lipo is great technology and it can keep up with nitro. that said there is nothing like the sound and smell or nitro. to the op...if you dont already know...take your time on breaking in the motor...it will be stronger and last longer

get some after run oil and when u get that broken in and tune it up make sure u let it sit for a min or to between tanks. it will cuz it to run way to hot and it will stall out on u. just go threw the brake in and take your time and get rid of the electric starter and dont run more then back to back tanks with out letin it sit for a few min. good luck any issues pm i been doin this shit for a long long time.

I've had a 2.5 tmaxx for years, ran great for the first month til I nailed a curb at full throttle. Broke the engine mounts, and cracked the gas tank, bent nearly every screw on the chassis. Didn't have the money to fix it back then and kind of forgot about it. Its sitting in a cabinet in the garage right now. Fun while it lasted. Fun when I get around to fixing it up I'm sure.

I had a HPI savage before, and I have a Traxxas Stampede a older one, but I wanted a newer T-Maxx 2.5 but he was out of stock on those so sold me a 3.3 with reverse for the same price!! I cant wait to get it out and play!

i had a HPI savage did u like it cuz i felt it was kinda slugish in away. i sold it after i broke it in and ran about 3 tanks after brake in. i got a few electric cars/stadium trucks in a trade for it.

I liked it but seemed like mine was really slugish off the start but then the little SOB would come to life and flip over backwards, but i also had a upgraded 3.5 motor over the stock 2.9 i think, but it ran hard when it got up in the rpms, from a dead stop it was sluggish!
