I really don't think people fully understand the impact tire/wheel combos have on their systems. It's not just dead weight which is one thing, it's rotational mass which has a much greater effect pound for pound in regards to stress than virtually anything else. If you are going to do speed runs (in a monster truck anything above 50) then you need to try and get the lightest tire wheel combo possible. It's not just the acceleration but the braking which greatly affects your system. Even HPI states in the Flux manual to use phaltlines when doing high speed runs.

I would also note that a thorough inspection be done of your vehicle after each run to check for binding and for any items the could be lodged in the drive train. I know for a fact both the HPI and TRX manuals state do this on all their RTR's.

As for the TRX forums, I gave up posting there. People just whine and moan when you explain to them there are limits on these systems.

I have been running 6s succesfully with a V2 MMM for a year now in my E-Revo, E-maxx 3905 and LST2 conversion.
