[321..IWIN]

sold my full Supermaxx T-Maxx a year ago , it was a sweet car. Had an RB C5 in it.

 

[3367stang]

I don't have one as of yet they are sapost to start shipping them on monday. They go for $480

Check out
www.towerhobbies.com
they have good prices along with anything else you will need.

Any of you guy's seen the supercharger's they sell for the T-Maxx and other model's?

 

[WyoTechMSA]

My friends T-Maxx 2.5 had a supercharger, and my sirio .18 could whomp his ass anyday of the week in a srtaight line. But he converted to one of those damn half Maxx half buggy deals so I didnt have chit for em on the track

 

[kaotikdave]

That is SICK!!! I never knew that they made superchargers for those little S.O.B.'s how much do one of those suckers cost (toy)?

 

[3367stang]

The truck is self retail's for $480 hten say another $50 for little thing's to get you going Gas battries and what not.
the supercharger is $130 i beleive, they also have N2o for these thing's to.

superchargers...rite...
the frigin motors that come with these cars and trucks are mostly 2 stroke, and the piston leaves the intake and exhaust port both open at the same time at some point of its stroke, so air cannot really cannot get compressed in the chamber...better yet it lags the whole motor to wind up the charger which doesnt do shit...its just a marketing gimmick, OHH YEAH SUPERCHARGER on a motor that already makes more then enough vacuum with its piston to fill up the chamber wtih ampes of intaked air...

anddddd...would any of these revo's like to play with my Savage 25

 

[TorchRedCobra04]

and n2o yea... its avalible by jagrc.com...but it increases the already fairly high wear factor of these motors by significantly alot...and i think its used more to leave a show of smoke behind instead of a fast rc...
newayyy...

 

[bonesswiss]
