That's up for debate
There's 3 or 4 groups on FB that are using that photo as their banner. That says a lot. I could never bring myself to run it. I mean you've had so many builds I don't see a gain in running this one.

New wheels, Maxmax tires, and some new beadlocks. Pretty impressed with the tires so far. Definitely softer than the akill spikes, but I think they should last on it. Curious if they will take big power, @crucialRC said they did good on his 55 so curious to see how they take a little bigger
Thought you wasn't going to run it?

Haven't decided lol. My urge to run it is equal to the urge not to lol. It's just hanging out for now lol. Weather is getting warm, then cold, then warm, and cold so it's just mud or ice lol
Anyone wanna place some bets? The odds are good

Haha it's tough, but I work a poop load. I have time to run certain ones bit not all of them. Got a promotion several months ago that has taken alot of my time and about to get another one that will take even more lol. Plan on doing this for a few years, pay off my house and toys and do something less time consuming lol

Been a minute on here, have since sold the rc50 and installed a Alx 85. Also swapped some wheel sets around, drove it and man this is an animal.
