Our RedCat Truck!

[TurtleRacing]

Hey all, I wanted to show off my wife's RedCat! This truck is awesome and I will have one soon too
We put on the TGN X-can to help push it along a little better. I also know Mark is making a pipe, can't wait for that.
The truck is under powered and the 3 gears are weak, we ran the truck at home for about 45 minutes, in the yard and on the track. It's awesome on the track, you can fly this thing like a nitro, those 4 huge tires will definitely change the trucks attitude while flying. Our track is hard clay and this thing Hooks UP!
But, sadly, it only made it 15 minutes in the sand at the Silver Lake Bash last weekend. I am not dissapointed about the gears, we knew they were a weak point, I'm dissapointed that we didn't have time to get spares. Won't happen again, and I hear Rob is having some steel gears made.
This truck certainly raised eye brows at Silver Lake though, just sitting on the stand it was impressive!

I didn't even mention how much my Wife likes this truck!! SHe has been wanting a truck for a long time and I've been waitingfor the proper truck to come out, this is it! She has really enjoyed this thing so far, including taking out the dogs waiding pool with it

I would like to thank Mark at TGN for the Cool X-Can and Rob at RamPage HopUps for the COOL truck!

I think on the sand, you would need to get it rolling at least. 4 huge tires digging in probably killed the gears. MCD gears are a direct fit, and metal gears are due soon.

Yeah, sand is the worst enviroment for any RC without a doubt. I ordered the MCD gears, a bunch of different sizes so I could try other ratios. But I can't wait till the steel gears are out!! GET TO WORK!!

The gear machine shop never saw anything like this. I think I sold him one.......

I also forgot to give props to PhatDad!! We installed his shock shafts and obviously he is sticking the same high standards as his Baja parts! The shocks worked flawlessly!
