They are good batteries although they are expensive, ignore the C-rate they are very powerful. I use them in my Tamiya TT02 they are amazing.
You've done us proud with this one, awesome looking car. Pity they always put the motor hanging out the back like that, good for wheelies but that's not really what we want is it. Still very nice to get one on the channel.
How 15 hrs ago when the vids 15 mins
This was a wonderful video!. Tried to win the speedster but I'm not great with that stuff. Anyhow love your videos! Never boring and the comedy is great. Thanks again for your page.
Watching it do wheelies was awesome
i love when people got limeted eddition stuff and use it as its meant to instead of sticking in a glass case
Yup this guys video was the only video I seen where someone put it through its paces 😂 I hope he can can get parts for it
@@Scoobers-fj6jkexocage too
Especially when it's not mine.
#noshelfqueens
Yeah its just an rc car. Drive it ,shelf queens are lame.
Absolutely great shots of Austin flying up and down the beach, loved it !!!!!!
Cheers dude
That motor transmission setup would be the perfect start to making a scale outboard boat motor
They rarely make changes to existing models over 20 years, I doubt for one second that this will stay limited, it will be released as a normal model with crappy graphics before long.
Then I’d buy one 😂
I’d buy more than one 😅
I'd buy one and paint it red! 😂
just like they did with the Ultimate Hauler.
used the TRX6 chassis and first sold it as a SnapOn Edition and a few months later, they released the "normal" version of the Ultimate Hauler
True traxxas almost never updates anything. Instead they slap a different body on it and call it “NEW” ( *cough Trx4 cough). What I would love to see: a lateral prerunner with 4 link trailing arm rear, like a baby UDR. I would buy one.
I'm amazed at how well that car went on the sand. Something that it isn't designed for. Oh, I think those suspension things are called torsion springs. The VXL system is fun in a Slash, that's where I put mine after trying it out in my Hornet. It was pointless in the Hornet. Backflips all day.
Eta: NI!!!!!!
It went so well! I wish I had more battery packs 😅
They were built to run on salt, I believe... In a desert in the US. 😬
They were run on dirt tracks and sometimes sand beaches here
@@MCsCreationssalt?
@EriMCardenasRC Yeah, old dried lakes, where there's lots of salt left. They use it for races and trying to beat records since the 60s, probably 50s...
The rooster tails of sand coming off the paddle tyres looked awesome!!
This has given me an idea to sway the new brushless Zorro chassis with my son's brushed one, shove some paddles on that and send it on the beach.
Great looking car that 1920's racer. It would be good to see some other manufacturers thinking outside the box. 👍🏻
2:13 - they're mock friction dampers, Phil. Before telescopic hydraulic dampers, we had these rotary friction units. Traxxas have taken advantage of the need to include them and hidden the suspension springs in there
Thanks Del 😇
Really like how it did that long wheelie 🤙. Looked so cool 👍
@@Modifier-RCs It did, didn't it? Phil's a master at doing that kind of thing on camera.
LOL the only thing I could think of watching was the Traxxas new movie “Austin Powers and his snap on member” sorry it just came out 🤣🤣
Totally not my thing yet on the other hand that is one of the COOLEST rc I've EVER SEEN🤣
Wheelies so well with the motor configuration🤪
Yes, it is so cool!
This looks pretty cool. I'd love to see these mass-produced and made into their own racing class.
These things are so cool. What made them bad ass in real life is they could run the Indy 500 one day and the next show up at a half mile dirt track.
You're probably one of the first people to modify this and do anything fun with these most people left them as Shelf Queens
Yes, I like to push the limits a bit more 😎🤟
Well because others are not fking rich and can't ruin an 800+ dollar car for the fun of it (the lowest prices i saw for this car)
@@maszkalman3676 I’m not rich, and I didn’t ruin anything. In fact… I think I made it better 🤩
No turn signals make one happy Tomley RC :D
To me this sums up 'hobby' perfectly. Modify something to have some fun and go and have a blast with it. Limited edition to me doesnt mean it stays pristine or standard. Its your to do as you want and make it to your tastes 👍
I do have many Traxxas vehicles as I thoroughly enjoyed watching you bash this thing on the beach! My local hobby shop has one on display, but I think it’s the owner’s personal one. If it ever comes up for sale I will buy it and to unthinkable hop ups to it!
Those few seconds after 13:53 has to be some of the coolest rc footage ever. I had to skip back and watch that a couple of times. Wow!
Looks like a blast! That was some outstanding footage - the slow motion clips were awesome!
4:19 ahhh man really .....4:20 awwww yer 💪bring it on that was awesome Phil 👊
That was pretty cool Phil , imagine running two sets of the rear paddle tyres on it front and back ,absolute beast .
I'm not going to lie, I thought this limited edition sprint car was cool but nowhere deserving of the hype everyone had on it. Love seeing things getting life by being used.
Traxxas, please, launch a normal version ... because this is amazing. Very cool, we need one normal.
Had a couple local guys do a brushless conversion and get 60MPH out of them on the drag slash wheels/tires. I just dont have the heart to mod mine. Shame as its mostly an over priced shelf queen lol When these cars came out i spoke to Traxxas and they said they had no plans of making a production one since they are so fragile. That being said, while they have parts available they are free. Just send them a picture of the broken part and they will send you a new part! :)
One of the most unique r/c cars I've seen and your review is excellent.
Cheers dude 🤟
Awesome! I thought about getting one and converting it to drift spec 👀😂
Well… you have to now you’ve suggested it!
I think it'd be a helluva time trying to eek out the required steering angle, the design severely limits how much angle (particularly to the left) you can get out of it. But if anyone can figure it out, its the purple drifty dude!
That’s so beautiful! Hopefully Traxxas does more of this kinda stuff.
"Fetch...........................,
a shrubbery!"
😅
@@cogboy302 Ni!!
We are the knights ! 😊
My first thought when he said he caught a shrubbery
@@associatedblacksheepandmisfits, what do you knights say?
Got to love a 2WD !!! WHEELIES !!!
Yes 🙌🏻
That would look wicked slammed down,, ultra wide tires and a beetle body
Yes!
Nice little Brucie bonus with that battery and charger
Yes 🙌🏻
A genuine positive reaction to a Traxxas !! I tried to find one a while back with no luck.
Austin Powers looked he was having a ton of fun flying up and down the beach. Great video.
Beautiful car. And nice shots in sand.
Those rooster tails on the beach looked nice! Cue in the angry fanboys in 3...2...1... 😂
That was a blast on the beach! Need to put a helmet on poor Austin :D
😅
Awesome video phil. This is the best thing i have seen traxxis come out with in recent years
I agree 😇
It's clearly between you and MSM for the best Traxxas channel.
Great video production. Specially with the shots from the moving rc
Thanks dude. Appreciate it
Crazy it tracks that straight at those speeds with that suspension.
I love this car though I am sure the price is silly, note to other manufacturers, bring out more models like this…
Go the whole way Phil and animate the drivers arms to the turn with the steering wheel
Yes, really hope it gets a full release. 🤞🏻
the shots were awesome switching back and forth with the onboard cam.
BTW, thats the best looking sand rail I ever seen! Thanks for the cool video Phil!
That thing looks so cool with the sand paddles ripping on the beach.. Awesome vid, 🔥
Best Traxxas channel on RUclips !
I agree 🤩
Hell yea finally someone putting it to good use! So cool to see!
Yes… how it should be done 🤟
I really expected a "yeah baby" in there some where. 100% glad you actually did some aggressive driving with it.
I was meant to add it in... completely forgot haha
Oh man it just looks so good!
That cracked me up. Looks like a great laugh.
the charger will charge any 2S or 3S battery as long as you have the adapter to plug it in. the badge comes off the front of the charger to reveal the balance ports. if you hold the 2 bottom buttons it puts it in universal mode. i love my traxxas charger.
Awesome… good to know!
Some DECENT wheelies 😁😁😁
That's to cool you did this with this super special edition truck!!! Bravo mate😎💯😎
The beach was the perfect choice!!
Awesome video
truly original custom content
Thanks dude. Appreciate it
That was like a monthly mayhem video. Awesome!
Brilliant, i bet Traxxas copy what you have done lol
Haha… I’ll sue them 😅
Nice vid Phil love the slow motion you capture the car in all its glory
Thanks Jason 👌
That drives remarkably well given the straight axles and friction type dampers/springs, etc.
I have a full size '55 Chevy, Gasser-style hot rod. It's got a live rear axle on ladder bars & panhard rod, and a solid drop tube front axle on 4 links with panhard rod (was IFS on double A arms originally). Coilovers all round. It handles surprisingly well on A & B roads for a car with solid axles at both ends.
I wonder if Traxxarse will launch a Model A or Model B Ford 3 or 5 window coupe, early '50s style Hot Rod on a similar chassis as the Snap On car?
I hope they release some cool stuff on the platform 🤞🏻
Said this in another comment:
Eventhoug I also think Traxxas wouldn't invest a lot of money on making a limited edition rig and not profiting with it later, I'm not seeing a big market for this platform.... Is there any?
I think they'd look sweet though!
That´s a nice conversion Austin was having a ball!
Missed the yeah babys yeah !!
Definitely different and appropriate driver. "Yeah baby! Yeah! ..and I'm spent."😁
That was way more entertaining than I was expecting.
FINALLY A REALLY NICE RC FROM TRAXXAS !!!
This entire project was hilariously awesome..... subbed!
Damn, I didn't realize Austin Powers could drive like that!!! ;)
The Austin Powers figure is chef's kiss perfection.
Yes, he’s my most experienced driver 😅
Somewhere in the world there’s a few people in tears because you not only ran it but upgraded it and ran it on sand. I say well done. That looks fun.
Finally someone on RUclips not afraid to play! Nice work! Allen?
I'm drooling all over this one, it's the nicest RC model I've seen! Hope they release a normal model, I'd definitely buy it. That tail acts like a rudder in the sand when it wheelies, lol.
Machine some gears and put a Maxx can in it. Looks like a blast! Thanks for another great vid!
Hahahahahaaa!! 🤣🤣🤣 Oh, the sacrilege!!! 😂 First ever Traxxas with an interior (is it?), first REALLY different rig Traxxas puts out in a while, limited rare edition, sweet scale looking frail little thing with no dampening whatsoever... "Let's put a 3S brushless system and paddle tyres on it and send it in the dunes!!" 😄😄😄 Super funny!
And it took it quite well, actually!
I'd love to see a drift modification. I liked it going sideways in your garage and I think it would look great slightly lowered.
"Powered by fanboy tears" 😅
You actually took the time! 😅 This pet "hate" of yours is super funny as well!
Eventhoug I also think Traxxas wouldn't invest a lot of money on making a limited edition rig and not profiting with it later, I'm not seeing a big market for this platform.... Is there any?
Cheers Phil! 👌💪
Love, love, LOVE this video! So much fun! I hope you are right and Traxxas releases this in a version available to everyone. Great video!
Ya I don’t buy traxxas anymore but I’d just have to get one as my ancestors played a part in first race cars 🏎️ cars” in England
Sweetious!! Tougher then I thought!
That's the best looking traxxas i've ever seen 😅. You have turned it into a beast. Love it 😎🤣
Ok,3s and paddles was pretty cool. Still like to see the 2s geared up.
Love those rooster tails on the sand
Phil you make really entertaining rc video's. Commentary and the car action segments. Really really appreciate your channel. !!
Thankyou for the paddles in this video with no wait for another vid 😊
Yeah baby! that's cooler than sharks with lasers.
Of course back in the day with those skinny tyres they steered by drifting them
❤ SOOO cool! Every time you panned to the front view of Austin I cried out YEAH BABY! YEAH!
Hahahaha
You gotta hand it to them, for such an unusual and retro design, it seems to handle pretty well in various scenarios.
Brilliant vid Phil, thank you so very much. That is an awesome looking car.
Thanks Jaytee 🙏
Hey Tomley! In regards to your comment about it being the fastest bl-2s, all the 2wd ones are that fast. The slash will hit about 29 stock and the rustler will hit about 34 stock. They move for the price! With the optional high speed gearing they will hit the claimed box speed as well.
" powered by fan boy tears " 😂😂😂
Haha.. I had to do it 😅
This is why you are perhaps my favorite. Your content is really good. I did not think this car could be cool - your content changed that. Well done man! Keep up the good work
Aren’t those torsion springs? You should be able to just tighten them up to stiffen the overall spring rate
Impressed they did period correct suspension
Thing looks like a riot on the beach!
Traxxas hater putting out the best video on the 1920s car! Epic mate.
Thats a cool car. Rips on 3s and those paddle tires are meant for that.
Looks an absolute blast on the beach. 😊
I would go back to buying RC cars if manufacturers offered these types of models... and in metal of course.
Love a good beach run and in a brilliant project car
Yeah, I love the beach. It’s about a 2.5hr round trip
All it misses is the Austin powers his mouth opening in that high speed shot. You know the mouth open look of Jeremy Clarkson in an Ariel Atom.
That car was awesome on sand i wouldnt have expected it to be anywhere near as good to be honest. Its definitely a platform with potential. Will be cool if traxxas do something else with it. Great video as usual😎👍🏼
You unlocked the Beach cheat code for Traxxas… Brilliant!
Yes haha
It looks sick going over that little bit of dirt
Yeah, was loadsa fun!
That painted green with a Bentley logo on would look amazing😊
Ferrari and red
Sounds an awesome idea
The smile on mr powers face priceless
He was loving it 😅
What a fantastic video, I could watch this over and over again. I love the hum of those tyres. Brilliant Footage.
