The video is an mpg of my T-Maxx on my local big hill 'o dirt. The truck is pretty tricked out and I think I've got the suspension hooked up pretty good. Those are Nitro Quake tires with Duratrax NQ foam inserts on those funky purple rims. Those inserts make a world of difference.
I'll have more videos soon including a number of jumps.

Oh yeah. The video is 28.1M in size. But it has sound!

Ah heck. One more.
This one is the truck at the end of the day last Sunday. 4 hours on the hill and in the bumps.
Total cost:
Two 6 x 12 bearings.
1 hub
One messed up (but re-buildable) MIP CVD
Busted rear lower suspension arm.
Head snapped off a screw holding the skid plate to the bulkhead (I hate when that happens.)
You'll note in the video the truck has a significant sag in the rear. That's where all the damage happened. You'll see the jump in a later vid.

looks like you had some serious fun. Mine is very dirty also after about 1 gallon of running in about 3 days. I didnt even bother to take the body off of it in the past 3 days to check for damage. I have been being pretty hard on it but hay wait till my supermaxx is doen:):)
