I know why they are done on pavement, its more challenging on dirt and of course you arent going to reach as high of speeds. I was just curious to see what others have seen on dirt.
I always see all these claims and video of guy hitting big speed numbers with the Rustlers but all of them are on pavement or concrete, so I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried to hit some...
You guys got an instruction sheet with your SPC lipos? I never got one and found it very weird, I would have liked to get one to I could do everything the manufacturer recommends.

Thanks for the update Dad, I see a 2s 8000mah SPC lipo in my near future. That will go nicely with my two SMC 40+C 5200mah CMAX packs. With that combo I should be able to run all day without...
Finally got my two today. Need to get an extension cable for my basher and I already got it installed on my FLM Rustler. Should get a chance to try them out this weekend.
Thanks for the compliments guys. Thats a big no on adding more stickers, I cant stand excessively stickered up bodies.
I agree the racing spikes from suprasales are the best tire for Northern climates. I got a set after vxlrocket recommended them to me and it turned my FLM street Rustler from an uncontrollable...
If you are referring to the light areas on around the beads its scraps from crashing on pavement. And if you are talking about the light areas between the holes in the "dish" of the rims, that is...
Well after about 9 months of owning my basher Rustler my old body was hashed so I picked up a Desert Rat body and painted it. Just got done putting the stickers on, tell me what you think.

What kind of speeds have you seen out of your rigs? I have seen 55.5MPH on GPS and climbing with mine, wondering if I am getting fast enough that I should document it or if I have to gain more speed...
How many of you guys ordered that Esky gyro off ebay from abeyerr? Just curious cause I ordered mine on the 2nd and it was shipped on the 3rd and I have not received it yet. I know it is coming...
Sent you a PM dblom11.
Who's all running these and which ones do you prefer? I currently have 30 series Road Rages and they are the worst tire I have ever owned so they are going in the garbage and I am I looking to go to...
After seeing that Bandit video I am very intrigued by this mod as I struggle with my street Rustler because it likes to spin the tires and turn me sideways. Will the Esky EK2-0704 rate gyro work...
After working on my Rustler today I noticed some cracks on the back of my chassis by the transmission, also I cannot get a 90 tooth gear to fit without hitting the screw that mounts the turnbuckle to...
How do the SMC 7.4v 6000mah 28c packs fit in the Rustler?
Has anyone picked one of these up yet? If so do you have a review on it?
I use Panther Paddles in the rear and Panther Razors up front

Hopefully RPM treats me right, I broke a front bumper about 2 weeks ago and wasnt going to send it in, but now I just broke a rear bearing carrier so I am going to send both in and see what they do...
Where in ND were you at? Lived here all my life and I live for winter. You just gotta have the right hobby which is snowmobiling.
Thanks for the suggestions guys, I am definitely going to give those ebay ones a try. For that price you cant go wrong.
Promatch 7 cell match and unmatched 4600 EnerG packs.
Its gotten up to 65 here and still both sets of tires have no traction. I see you are from Cali do you consider that cold? Cause this time...
You guys got any ideas on what street tire is going to give me the best traction. I have used both Anacondas and Road Rages and I am having no luck hooking up at all on asphalt. No matter how much...
The chassis came with the stock tranny when I bought. I plan to go to a aluminum one eventually.
Havent had a chance to compare the matched and unmatched packs yet, hopefully this weekend.
