No one knows for sure because the terra Crusher isn't out yet. But the video only shows pulling speed, not which handles better,which one is faster etc. We do know as far as speed the T-Maxx should be faster because it's lighter.

That should have pulling power (torque) not pulling speed.

I'd bet my clams on the Tamiya. Of the small-block monsters (box-stock of course) I feel the Tamiya gives the most truck out of the box. But can Tamiya match the parts support of Traxxas though?

Watch the video and it shows the T-Maxx had no chance vs. the TC. You should also go to the Tamiya USA site and watch the TC pull an employee sitting in an office chair around the parking lot. It's hard enough getting a running start and rolling in one of those on asphalt let alone pulling a load over 100 lbs from a dead stop.

Speed and handling looks very good too. With it's larger size I'm sure the TC can handle the rough stuff better.

RCCA said the Terra is 1MPH slower than the Maxx, with such little difference you'l never tell. I've seen movies of it going over some pretty serious rough terrain and it does superbly, that suspension does just a good a job as maxx suspension
