Just getting into the RC Cars with my kids. I’m blown away how fast and fun they are and significantly cheaper to upgrade than my cars and motorcycles lol

Just finished watching the paint job video. Good work! 👍🏼

When you curled those ESC, and receiver wires you showed your RC age.

You are a RC genius. Have you redone a Freefly Tero?

I got one of these on trade for like 50 bucks. it's the old school version with the brush motor setup. I was going to rebuild it for my girlfriend because her mini losi-T doesn't do too well in regular grass and the front yard and stuff. I love the wheels you did on this one how good does it do in the grass?

On your shocks you have bump stops . Do you mind giving me a link to where I can buy them? Ive been wanting to put some on my rustler. I even called traxxas support and they couldn’t help me. I would appreciate it thank you.

Do you know if traxxas 2wd slash parts are compatible with the traxxas rustler 2wd parts?

[ashernelson]

Is this the early rustler or updated version? I have a 2000 rustler 2wd but can’t for the life of me find parts for it

[Matty_mccfly]

What is the part number or name of the the rods you used for the front a arms?
