    I purchased the basic brushed Bandit and did all the conversions to upgrade it to a brushless system. I can burn off a set of stock Bandit tires in no time. Street tires are too hard and I get terrible control ability on them. I was told I need to soften the material in the tires with something like brake fluid or something. That seems like a great way to destroy them. I just replace the tires when they are completely worn out any more.

  • @Nerm78

    I may be wrong but my brushed version came with bushings too but it was a older Bandit so they may have changed that. Either way awesome car and video! Keep up the good work and videos!

    I hope I never have to own a Traxxas. I would rather have a Losi, Associated, Tekno, or Arrma. Traxxas has been involved in so many lawsuits sueing other companies for crazy stuff. They even sued HBO for the term "Max" because they thought consumers would be confused between HBO Max and traxxas Maxx....cmon....that is rediculous.
