what's up with the GorillaMaxx stuff?

[BP-Revo]

I talked to Mike at RCX. He said everything has been discontinued save for the G4 and one other thing.

Think about it. The big draw of the E-Revo chassis was for people who wanted an E-Revo. After the factory E-Revo came out, there's almost no point. Especially since the new one has a robust transmission. The 3906 E-Maxx tranny you had to use with the E-Revo had so many small issues that required a bunch of mods to get around (new slipper, replacing that stupid pin on the input shaft that always breaks, steel idler, etc).

It is because of that that sales really fell off.

With all due respect, those of us that have this chassis know its the better chassis for racing. Even the stock chassis is not as low or setup better, They can't expect us to turn to the lead sled kershaw chassis. No offense, but that chassis looks clunky and bulky compared to the gorilla. I guess mine will sit in the mothballs till i can learn cad (hopefully this year or next) and can make my own parts

Gorillamaxx needs to stick around. They should make a chassis with Mike that will allow you to use the slipper diff. I know that Mike is working on center diff adaptor, but an x-brace chassis made for a center diff would be awesome!

straight outta the horses mouth:

Hello Harold,


We are still producing parts, however, we have stopped producing chassis kits for for the old E-maxx, our G3 and the Nitro Revo E conversion, our G3R.
We are still producing the transmission parts, the mount and single speed. We are also still producing the G4. We just had delays from our machine shop.


Thanks for the email.
George
