Just ordered this exact one, from Tower Hobbies, Scratch and Dent sale, for only $170. This will be my first on road RC and I'm excited! It's pretty awesome, how it already has the .8 mod gearing, so that will save some money, when I wanna go brushless.
Like a good wine and cheese pairing , such is your pairing of music on this one. Good job. Love your passion expressed on this one too and that shot of the surveillance sign was a cute touch. Cheers. R
Thanks! I just picked up an Epidemic Sound account so there's lots of new music to search through. I have been using free RUclips music up until this point. This video was so much fun to make and it helps when the product is an absolute blast!
Certainly gave the roof skids a work out. LOL. Looks like that skate park was perfect for the truck. I like scale looking bashers. Would be cool to see one with the Felony body in that scale. Brushless would be next level but doesn't look like a necessity. Thanks for the video.
Last year, $319 was the price of the 3s brushless Big Rock, and the Mega line vehicles were around $260. This feels like a big step backwards, value-wise.
Prices are up on everything. I paid $9 per 2x4 this year when finishing my basement. Just a few years ago when I finished my basement in my old house I paid $1.06 per board.
I know everyone is very "brushed-phobic" but this is the one I'll be picking up. The price is perfect! Great review Greg and congrats on the huge subscriber jump my dude!
ii totally agree with you plus after i buy this and save my money back up then i can put a decent brushless system if i want and end up with an infraction without having to drop 700 in the beginning. great idea for us regular people without big budgets,
@@Timsfpvshow true, or the size too. The Felony/Limitless/Infraction are HEAVY... something a lot of people don't consider, but mine has to weight over 25lbs... you run into an ankle or god forbid hit someone with it and its gnarly
My boy will be stoked with this for Christmas! I pre ordered the same colour that you have here, it does seem a little slow in comparison with brushless/lipo, but pretty sure it'll be plenty fast enough for our local areas
The old granite brushed we had over heated very easily on lipo batteries. Otherwise a great truck. Does anyone know if this thing handles a 2s battery on a decent run time?
Late to this Party & eeying this showy but slow Truck. @ double the speed & the Vendettas have been bullet proof which would make this brushed version last a long long time.
I have always wanted an infraction.. but I can't justify $1300aud for an on-street basher. I'm so happy they came out with a mega version for so much cheaper! I will wait to see if they come out with some newer versions before I buy
@@fbiagent3399 I just got one from Tower Hobbies Scratch and Dent sale, for $170. Same color as this one. This will be my first on road RC (kinda off-road too, I guess).
@@fbiagent3399 That's what I did for a Granite MEGA, about a month ago. Onyx 3000kv 70amp brushless system. The slipper doesn't like the extra power and slips too much even at the tightest setting. Gotta get the 3s slipper, for sure.
Your Arrma shirt is nice! Where to get that? Already have the "big bro" but will still get the "baby".Because these are the best on road for me.So much fun!
I didn't get an infraction, because I supected that this thing was only for use on road... Got an Senton instead. Man, was I wrong about the Infraction! Would love to see how far off-road you could go with this thing.
I wonder is they still have the metal shock upgrades? My experience with ARRMA plastic shocks has always been blah, their metal shocks though.... awesome.
I know this has nothing to do with this video but I'm really hoping you can answer my question. I posted this on another video of yours from September with the Typhon TLR but I'm just wondering if when you replaced your TLR hinge pins with RC8 hinge pins if you had to modify them in anyway or if they fit well enough out the bag? Sorry if this is stupid but I'm only 20 days old into the hobby and could really use an answer to this question. Thank you RCDRIVER and awesome content!
Hello names T I have a rc car right & I want to know why does my tire keep tightening up I noticed every time I takeoff my tire it’s broken or it’s not in there , so if you can give me an answer I would appreciate it thanks
That's actually not the clutch that's used in the BLX. That's the clutch that's used in the current megas. Unfortunately they also used that mega clutch on the vendetta.
@@williamperri3437 not necessarily. They are small, light and have pretty small tires. Those things all add up to pretty light loads on this liquor clutch
I hope they turn this line up into rally cars with long stroke dampers. excellent video as always, pinnacle of product reviews
That would be rad! I always thought Rally needed more love in this hobby.
I wonder if you could put granite or big rock aarms and shock towers and shocks on it that would be cool.
i would be interested in rally race rc more fun then carpet
Our rally group is making these their own class for 2022. Looks like a great vehicle for rally.
@@WNYRC excellent , i look forward to watching some video action
very cool truck, great driving you did, i like it, so just ordered one, thanks for the show,lol
Enjoy it when you get it!
Great video. Huge thanks to your good lady for finding the skate park.
I know right! She was getting a little bored watching videos in the same spots. I agree, it's just hard to find places to run around here.
Never thought i’d see an on-road chassis look so composed at the skatepark, even some trucks look like they don’t belong there

I did to for my son as a beginner he's only 6 haha
Not a lot of skate parks near me, but man this video just sold me on the truck! Love the look of it and can’t beat the price/fun factor!
Just ordered one...Happy Birthday to me!!!
Congratulations on 150,000 subs. Awesome! 👍
Thank you very much!
Great review man thanks! They are a blast to race around a couple cones with friends if you have 3 or 4 of them too.
Awesome! I was wondering why you've never done any other videos there until you explained. Perfect little spot!
Awesome video, you really enjoyed making it! The skate park bash was brilliant 👍 I have its big brother and this car looks equally as fun!

Just ordered one for 159$ can’t wait to take it to the skate park.
Through what store?
@@Watchout5035. it was a sale that Tower Hobbies was having.
Got to agree looks like a great skatepark basher. Great video Greg👍👍
I really like it. Not sure about the skatpart bashing but some trail blasting for sure. Arrma and doing some great work.
Looks a great truck and Sega graffiti 👍👍👍

@@williamperri3437 I haven't. Got a good deal on a Mojave BLX so I have that in yhe works currently
Taking mine to the skate park today
Love your videos always very entertaining
This looks really cool! But I think if I wanted an on/off road chassis I'd get the LC Racing rally car from your previous video.
Vendetta is out now on preorder but the brushed infraction is released in January.. 👍👍😎
Looked this truck up cause it's on sale for 150, think I'll grab it. looks sick. might have to upgrade to brushless ASAP, all I have is 3s lipos lol
On road at the skatepark...that's my cue. So long RC it's been fun/pricey.
My boy will be stoked with this for Christmas!
I pre ordered the same colour that you have here, it does seem a little slow in comparison with brushless/lipo, but pretty sure it'll be plenty fast enough for our local areas
Yup, big lots you may get a little bored with it. But for smaller spaces, it was actually well powered and fun!
Looks like a fantastic car👌😃👍
Sehr cooles Video 😍👍🏻
just bought one today!
top video!
Can't wait!
The old granite brushed we had over heated very easily on lipo batteries. Otherwise a great truck. Does anyone know if this thing handles a 2s battery on a decent run time?
Would love to see you upgrade to Brushless system, then do some 2s speed runs awesome video bro!!! see if you could get 80 - 100 mph.

I ordered it a while ago. Might still be available on the Horizon site.
It's on sale right now for $150. Close to pulling the trigger!
It's a little ripper me likes 👍
Probably my next truck, was gonna get a traxxas rally but i want this instead
The suspension definitely looks beefy. It will be interesting to see how well sealed the drive train is after being ran through dirt.

The RC8 pins were a direct fit, no mods. Welcome to the hobby!!
@@rcdriver thank you so much.
I think it's a great speed
Nice looks like a very fun car. Time for brushless?
Oh oh CEN has that phrase trade marked fun factor.
As media, I can use fun factor however I wish. Manufacturers can't use it as a product name. 🙂
@@rcdriver last time I watch your content take care God bless.
Will the Traxxas 17 mil hex adapter's work on this?
Can you get the same tires for the 7th scale
570 sized motor? Is that similar to a Castle 1415 motor?
Are replacement parts plentiful?
Just curious what 3d printer do you have in that white inclosure
NIIIICE ✌️
I would love to get one of these for Christmas but I’m sure all of them would be sold out
Brushless system needed pronto. I feel 4s in it's future.
that thing is like a skateboard
I said I like the car one day added to the collection comes from Winter Haven Thomas
What do you take your videos with
Mostly GoPro's and an iPhone.
Hello names T I have a rc car right & I want to know why does my tire keep tightening up I noticed every time I takeoff my tire it’s broken or it’s not in there , so if you can give me an answer I would appreciate it thanks

That's actually not the clutch that's used in the BLX. That's the clutch that's used in the current megas. Unfortunately they also used that mega clutch on the vendetta.
Dam! I thought I may have heard Earl say that. This and the Vendetta need the best Slipper Armma offers.
@@williamperri3437 not necessarily. They are small, light and have pretty small tires. Those things all add up to pretty light loads on this liquor clutch
@@DoRC understandable but a lot of people will upgrade the system. This is the hobby as we know it.
My question is, in stock form, can u run 3s? If not, because of 9turn motor?
Is esc compatible with 3s ?
Maybe you should watch the video
Do the wheels use 12mm drive hexxes?
14mm on this one. I have a clip of the hex measurement in the video.
Is the motor itself 3s capable?
No. 2s only
if you take out the center driveshaft wont it make it RWD
If it has the front differential it’s still 4x4 it just doesn’t have the front wheels spinning
THE INFARC IS AWESOME THE MEGA. VENDETTA IS KOOL BUT DONT LIKE THE WING ON IT
💪🏾💯
I use 3s on mine it even indicates 3 beeps....
Brushless 3S systems going in 3,2,1....
Is it just me or does 30mph not seem all that fast?
That’s not 30mph
Ye that’s only going 22mph in o get 30 you need the new arrma pinion gear
Why she’s not expensive ? Than the street one
The Street infraction is a 6S brushless truck in a larger scale. This one is 2S capable with a brushed motor. Not the same truck at all.
You probably would have hit or at least gotten closer to 30mph if you removed the rear wing
Agreed. I read the fine print under the 30mph logo on the box after the video. It says under optimum conditions. Which means do some tricks lol!
For tracking and racing that big oversized spoiler really makes a big difference though. No oversteer spinouts
With 2s Lipo and bigger pinion is anyone beating 30mph?
I call it the fisher price infraction
Looks slow
To painful to watch.
I think it's a great speed
How much runtime does the stock battery have ?
