I've been Slashed!

It must be cool to see a prerunner truck doing a wheelie.

A video I put together from bashing this weekend:

Looks like fun! I think mine may get the aveox,mm setup out of my vxl pede (wonder where that pede came from...)

[skellyo]

I wouldn't go too hot on the setup. Mine should be running around 33mph the way they're setup and anything more than that would pretty much keep you on your lid. It's got a pretty high CG and we did our fair share of barrel rolls just trying to make turns with them.

Nice video! How do you like it compared to an ordinary Rustler? I have got a spare motor, so I am sort of on the lookout for another rc to put it in...

[skellyo]

I think I'll actually drive this more than my Rustler. I'm actually thinking about selling one of my VXL Rustlers now that I have a pair of these.

[jnev]

How does the Rustler and Slash compare when driven on sand? I can only assume that the Rustler would be better because of the wider tires.... Send me a PM about how much you want for your VXL Rustler.

Sean are they as fast as they look ?.

The Rustler does a little better job staying straight in the loose stuff. And I think you're right, it's the wider tires.

About 33mph or so. I didn't GPS them, but probably will next time I take them out.

That sounds perfect.
