RE: An open letter to Traxxas
I really dislike the traxxas forums. I have been into it with mods over there at least a couple of time.
I had several different items I posted in the classifieds. I had them all together, and one of the items was an old clutch bell that came off of a t-maxx I had. So, I put it all on there, and the whole mess got deleted because I was informed the clutch bell wasnt a traxxas bell. I let the mods know I wasnt happy about it too.
I really dont care if I get banned from there. The only reason im on is to use the classifieds really. You can say its not the Mod's fault that they are strict, but I say that is BS. Unless they are a traxxas employee, they dont have to be a mod who thinks he has some special power because he can ban people from the traxxas forum.
You CAN sell aftermarket items in the classifieds over there, you just have to word it correctly. Such as, if you buy this t-maxx spur gear for $50, I will throw in these MIP CVD's for free... However, If they get hateful with me on there like they have some members, they will at least hear about it before they get to ban me.

RE: An open letter to Traxxas
I don't want a race buggy for bashing, I am happy with my stampede for that purpose.
Traxxas hater.....
People don't realize that traxxas has made the hobby what it is today with RTR RC cars/trucks. They brought the hobby to the masses and made it affordable. While I don't agree with everything they do, they still are the major pull in the RC industry. Every hobby shop that I go into always has tons of traxxas parts.

Made it affordable?
$300 for a 16 year old truck that's lower quality and arguably not as strong as a $240 5 year old truck?
Cool.

the "16 year old" comment should've made it pretty clear [&:]
The Pede/Rusty/Bandit weren't very good when they were new compared to the RC10 and RC10B2. There have been no marked improvements since the mid 1990s with these cars.

RE: An open letter to Traxxas
I'm back with more. After reading additional Mod comments over there the last couple of days I've decided I'm done with the site and maybe Traxxas altogether. They have 3 guys in particular that are out of control and in the last week I have seen a couple outright threats and at least 1 person get banned for no good reason. They've also deleted or closed several very good and helpful threads.
IHobby is coming up in a couple of weeks and I fully intend to bring this up with whom ever is in charge there. I doubt it will do any good but I'm speaking my mind. I'd strongly suggest that anyone that is attending the show to voice your opinions and be heard. Maybe it will get back to someone that will listen. The Mods over there need to be controlled and clearly that is not happening. If Traxxas supports this kind of behavior then I don't feel the need to support their company.
I like my Traxxas stuff but I'm done until things change.

You leave out the fact that the pede/rusty/bandit is far more durable than B4.1/T4.1/SC10. One is made for precision and one is made for durability.

No marked improvements? A ton of parts in the truck have been re-made since they came out. Tranny was redesigned with metal gears, thinker trans casing, and revo spec slipper.
You leave out the fact that the pede/rusty/bandit is far more durable than B4.1/T4.1/SC10. One is made for precision and one is made for durability.

And?
And ThunderbirdJunkie would like to know what first-hand experience you have with the RC10B4/T4/SC10 line. What's that? None? A subjective statement based on no firsthand experience? Any impact that will break a T4/B4 will break a Rusty/Bandit/Pede.
The Bandit/Rusty/Pede is not a BAD RC car. It's just that the Losi XXX platform and the AE RC10x4x platform is light years ahead of it. Or just 10 regular years, really.
If you honestly think a couple gray parts, a still-crappy slipper, and metal gears in the trans (wait, what's that? Associated doesn't NEED an all metal-gear transmission? And never HAS?) is a significant redesign and that these cars are current, you really need to take a look at the Traxxas 272 platform's market competition.
The Bandit/Rusty/Pede is fine if you've never had anything else. Once you own an Associated or Losi 1/10 2wd car though...you'll...well...understand what all of us are saying.
So, question for ya.
Which is stronger?
An XXX-NT Adam Drake 2 or a Nitro Sport/Nitro Rustler?

OK, a slightly thicker trans case and metal gears in the transmission.

Im not a traxxas fan boy, but I have owned my share of traxxas stuff. The Stampede is no joke. Its tough as nails, fun as heck to drive, and easy and cheap to get parts for/work on. I dont care if you like traxxas or not, but there is no doubt in my mind that the stampede/rustler/bandit isnt stronger than a T-4(and i love associated), and Losi doesent even hold a candle with their high roller that is a very new design. I like tamiya, but most of their stuff costs too much for what it is, and doesent perform well without some hop ups, such as bearings, oil filled shocks, etc... Thats the only reason I havent owned a tamiya.
So my question is, what does it matter how old of a design it is if it continues to work great and be reliable? It doesent.
As for your question, Id put my money on the rustler.

Blow me , its not my fault Traxxass POS TRX 3.3 engine couldn't hold a tune or the diffs seals kept breaking and leaking, hence why I was asking Traxxas directly but as soon as I got wind of their "moderator power trip" I said to hell with it

I had a similar incident happen to me on another forum with a member over a difference in opinion about their forums rules.
The administrator of the forum actually PM'd me to let me know that he was disappointed with me because I retaliated against the member because he was giving me hard time and he was even breaking the forum rules.
He stated in PM that because this particular member had more experience in Rc than 90% of the other members that he was allowed to get away with his inappropriate behavior and that's how it is.
I PM'd him back and told him that I would not put up with that type of behavior from him regardless of how much knowledge he has and he wrote me back and told me just to block him.
This guy is not a dealer, mod or nothing.

He stated in PM that because this particular member had more experience in Rc than 90% of the other members that he was allowed to get away with his inappropriate behavior and that's how it is.
I PM'd him back and told him that I would not put up with that type of behavior from him regardless of how much knowledge he has and he wrote me back and told me just to block him.
This guy is not a dealer, mod or nothing.

I'm more shocked he's still able to post on this forum actually with how he's been side stepping the language filter in some posts. Most places would have banned him(and have) by now.

If an e-maxx gets run over by a car... who cares, if a Tamiya race buggy gets run over by a car, I'm out $400. You can not really compare Traxxas to Tamiya, so whoever keeps trying to do that, please stop.

To all the people who are thinking of buying a Trashass, dont, just firtst go check out the new range of Tamiya race buggies. They are fantastic.[sm=tongue_smile.gif][sm=thumbs_up.gif]

Your general ''I'm always right in my mind, no matter what'' attitude isn't much better little man. Even when the evidence CLEARLY states that you are wrong, you refused to back down from your little high perch of perfection

I've seen you bypass the language filter a few times in posts here because you disagree with people by using v's instead of u's in certain 4 letter words what would generally be *'d out. I've also read posts by you on other forums where you do the same thing because they disagree with your point of view. You have a very bad attitude problem, and ignore people when your point of view is questioned (and usually proven wrong). I will admit I am wrong(and have a few times in the past) when someone shows evidence**. You on the other hand will cry on another forum about people on different forum disagreeing with you.
To further my argument a quote from you in this very thread
When I asked some offshoot questions about my Revo 3.3 concerns years ago, my thread got deleted and I got unfairly warned about something so stupid. For revenge, I posted on their forum very late at night and made a topic to the effect of "Why are Traxxas mods such forum nazi's?
Needless to say, Im permabanned from their website for life. Screw em....

**posts from a pile of amateurs on another board who agree with you, and judging by their rationalization in posts have no who idea about the theory of how it works, and can only quote the person who sells items, doesn't count as evidence or prove a point (other than you are gullible).

Your little biased post rant against the people of RCM pretty much put you on my shiat list. Are you the second coming of Jesus? You make yourself sound so flawless with the attitude to match. Forgive me Lord, I am imperfect in many ways for being a human
And yes, I love pouring vinegar and baking soda together on internet forums, the reaction entertains me greatly.

They were insanely biased on that forum. One guy didn't agree with them(who has a degree in electronics) they ridiculed him telling him he was wrong, while they with there 0 electronics education know more than people with degrees in the subject. I've read quite a few other posts there, and that place is EXTREMELY biased.
BTW this is another post where you sidestepped the language filter, and act like a 5 year old to prove my point even further.
