Well it's certainly big! I don't think I'd get one myself, those cars are too redneck for me. But I'm sure it goes well.
:)

well, i will have to say i am going to compete with you. i got a team losi XXX-NT sport RTR, and i love it!:D i was thinking about that one but i decied to go for the one a little better. lol, oh well they are both great trucks! i would also like to say that they are not at all 'redneck'. they cost in the $300 range, and you have to be smart to be able to run them. that kinda rules out rednecks.

Joey 01-16-2004 05:53 PM

It's the way they look, nothing about the mechanics or operation. I'm not even close to RC savvy, so I can't make judgements based on much besides appearance.

Anx MAtrix 01-16-2004 06:34 PM

its better?
 
no offense but the gt is way better than the losi :D

i read around a lot before pixking out wat kinda stadium truck i wanted, plus the gt has won a lot more COMPETITIONS than the losi :eek:

wat u mean looks?

i tihnk the blue look is awesome! imagine a blue blur flying in the air!

HPIracer 01-16-2004 11:26 PM

Oooo yay a Losi/AE fight! I have found that the NT handles better but breaks more. The AE GT is a great truck, i had one but i sold it and bought an electric XXX-T. I have since traded the XXX-T for a Ofna Hyper PBS but i think i might sell it. I honestly have more fun with these cheaper cars that i can just screw around with. The fact that tires for the buggy cost more than a new xmod doesnt help either. I just got a Mini-T and i think a Tamiya TLT-1 will be next :)

Anx MAtrix 01-17-2004 01:25 AM

well i have a whole bunch of rpm and factory team stuff, my car is almost breakable, good bashing set up, and its fast enough, i mean even though some stadium gas truck go 50 mph+ u dont do thgat offroad, and if u drive on streeet, by a on road

Darklancer 01-17-2004 05:26 PM

Thas a Gas Engine, Right? Those r LOUD!!! I want to find a way to make a Gas engine for the Xmods. That would be insane!

i probably only have like 60 bux in rpm parts, and a cb rear shock tower upgrade, also got new rims

i broke my first unexpected part today as you can see

it holds up nice and does crazy jumps

payaso 01-19-2004 12:04 PM

Nitro is the shizzle.... Loud, Fast, Smelly, just plain great....

The stadium trucks are cool, but I run over them with my T Maxx..

Not on purpose, but it kinda just happens that way. lol

Anx MAtrix 01-19-2004 12:52 PM

o rizzle
 
i was thinking about a t maxx... but they ended up costing a little to much for me... i mean if you look at like tires and rims for those things... and they are just huge... lil too big for me, and i dont think i've heard of a organzied t maxx race at track...

correct me if im wrong

aero528 01-19-2004 09:51 PM

i still like the losi better!!:D and the only time i have broken my car is when it was my falt!:( i brock the rea right a arm, a rod was bent(bent it back, easy), and i brock the shock tower!:( two ton epoxy does wonders! i did order the parts though. what happened was that i was going full throtal and i was turning. the right rea ran into a steel basketball pole, and it landed about 15 feet away! it was funney and sad to watch. oh well, it still runs great! i was not saying the ae is a bad car, its just i think the losi better!

i would kinda disagree. i can see where you are comingfrom though. i think they look like baja cars(or dune bugies).

Anx MAtrix 01-19-2004 10:23 PM

ae vx losi
 
from what i read is...

losi run better in the beginning but in the end they all fall apart.

ummm, isn't that knida a biased site? if you had a losi then you would not subscribe to a ae site, unless you had one of both. i would sugest going to wildhobbies.com and looking at their review or their forums. that is unbaised.

Anx MAtrix 01-20-2004 09:53 PM

nah, if u cant face it that losi break more :D . . .

then get a gt :rolleyes:

malform 01-23-2004 12:37 PM

Heh, if I had a nickle for every time I have heard the losi vr. associated argument I would be a rich man... IMO the argument is just lame, unless your a die-hard racer, it doesnt really matter. I have a nitro rustler, and all I use it for is jumping, bashing and just trying to break stuff..... Damn thing takes alot of abuse :)

Anyway, to get back on track... If your having fun, it doesnt matter. And nitro off road trucks are so friggin cool, if you have one, any one, I'm sure you are having fun.

i agree, the gt and the losi are both great trucks! any nitro would be fun! these are just our opions. how about we call a truce?

EDIT: but i will not give up on the fact that i don't like Traxxas(except the e and t-maxx, and the rustler)

malform 01-23-2004 03:14 PM

malform 01-23-2004 03:14 PM

malform 01-23-2004 03:20 PM
