I like my gmaxx chassis also, but what i reall like is the fact that george ( gorilla maxx owner) holds his tolerences really tight. The quality is awsome.

The quality, fit and finish is what attracted me to Gorillamaxx a couple years ago and I have been working with George ever since. Top notch stuff! Glad you got everything quick, Richard.

Yes, the chassis and g3 suspension are very well machined, just when putting it together make sure you take your time!


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL

i have the g3 suspension and alluminum chassis with an HV maxx brushless(which i am not very proud of but it does well on a very small and tight indoor track that is ment for 1/12 scales)with 14 cells it weighs a little over 10 pounds

Yea No Probs,

I keep thinking of a Stock max just with all gorillmaxx Parts, i think that would be quite cool

I dont think it will be to light, its all alloy. Ive got evry single parts apart from A couple of stock slipper parts, CVD's, Diffs, Pillow Balls and servo saver. But UE are out of stock so it could be a while ...........

The parts ive put together (Chassis, K-Factory Aerial, Motor Mount, Extension Kit, 40mm Fan, Battery straps) all look great. Plus Got all other parts waiting (apart from those mentioned above). Started this truck without even a single screw from an E-Maxx

Thanks

I'm thinking of getting the G# racing suspension for 279.00, is this a good idea? Or just get the chassis?

The chassis would be my first upgrade, if you can, get the g3 suspension, its very nice suspension, durable, and look very nice! And it will be alot ligher if you use only 4 shocks:)
