smart tech traveler right? hehe that's funny I was talking online to the girl I like and I told her about my R/C's and that I jumped my emaxx and she's like: with you in it?! lol

J_D

yup smartech traveller 99.99% the same as the duratrax firehammer, only difference is duratrax one comes with a better air filter - thats it.

Its soo awesome! and fun, and huge

Stupid kids with bikes..... 2 kids were chasing it (10 year olds) I then slowed it down so they're like 2 feet away... then i full blast it down the street... this stupid kid tried to bike as fast as he can..... he tripped and fell... onto grass though..... it was funny and his mom was lecturing him about how he should respect me and my toys... now that kid is like afraid of me

I let my gf (girlfriend) drive my stampede, told her to take it easy on the throttle and just take it easy... She did great. Problem is, she drove it under my real truck (a dodge dakota). she couldn't figure how to drive it out from under there so she hands over the transmitter. I'm like "haha happens all the time, no worries" and give it full throttle to come out-- Tore the antenna clean off! [X(] it musta been hung up on something. She thought it was her fault and I had to explain that I was actin a fool by blastin outta there like that... O well.
I like reading these stories! keep em coming!

J_D

yes i buy all my spare parts from tower hobbies, which are firehammer parts, they are 99.99% the same car.

I think smartech makes them, and duratrax rebadges them under the firehammer name, and adds a better air filter.

I let my friend run my t-maxx [cough: nitro rustler racer :cough] because he tunes it and I was taking a video of it and he comes off the curb and flipps it, no body, and you can hear it scraping on the pavement [pics in nitro stadium trucks ]. And I let his bro drive it too [6yrs experence] and he hits a sandy spot at WOT and cartwheels it about 3 times and lands on the lid [pavement] The most damage was a scuffed head and the towers are a lil scuffed But I'll still let them run it though [8D]

Nitro Rustler Racer

lol, ur like me man, i hit a tree or somtin, i gun it until it the rear wheels dig in the dirt and flips and goes the other way

Nitro Rustler Racer

but i let my dad run it once or twice, couple times he did good on teh street, then at the park he gets the hang of it, broom there she goes, a nice maximum st with a torq .16, look at her go, OH ****!!! he smacks into a curb, bending the front chasis, muffler goes flying somwhere,lmfao, all good tho, i never let friend drive my trucks unless it's stockerracer or somoen i know has a rc truck that they care for, but kids always ask me to drive it, i say no, they say why not? i have a rc car, i know how it works i say since when doe radio shack for 40mph+? they say mine goes faster, and stuff, so they get all puffy huffy and leave crying, so i jsut chase them, eheh

Can't resist posting this. My gf has a 5yr old and a 3yr old, the 5 yr just loves to get right in front and try to jump over whatever I am driving. All his friends chase it too. Btw, I have a nitro 4 tec, a Jato, a Revo, an MGT w/ a picco .27 and 14 t clutch bell = all power no brains, a mini-t, and got a xxx t sport " for the boy", lol. So we're at the park and there's like 7 kids and I got the Jato out, ther's a cool set of two small hills and if you come at em from the field you can get some good speed up and come over the first hill and into the gap w/ some air and jump the 2nd hill. I get all fired up and I am runnig around real close to us before I go for speed and sure enough I get on top of one hill, they run to the Jato, I go to the other hill and they follow. Not moving fast yet mind you. I'm telling them to stay back cause I don't want some 8 yr old falling, or stepping, on my baby. So after 1/2 a tank I go out in the field, everyone is just watching cause they can't run that fast, and I make my first run. No problems, 2nd time out here comes Mitch to jump over my car. I tell him no and he just stands there and I go for a couple shots to get my line down for the winner. Mitch stops listening now and is just standing there so I have to slow down, well I'm a bit pissed he's messin up my run so I give it about 1/2 throttle and as he tries to jump over MY Jato the Jato takes flight... Maybe only 4-6 inches off the ground,but just enough to catch his feet and send his legs to 9:00 and his face to 3:00. He lands on his chest and arms as his mom watches (and thank God doesn't yell at me) gets up crying and goes to the bench. I got about 3 minutes of peace as he sat and cried and needless to say, I got several runs in in that 3 minutes.

I was out bashing my mt 2 in the front yard a couple of weeks ago. so i had just tuned it and had it running great. i was through half a tank when my dad gets home, and admires me powersliding across the driveway with it. so he was like he wants a try at it, i was like no problem. so i had just drove it onto the lawn, but i was going to bring it back towards him then give him the remote. just as i go to turn the truck around and about a little over half throttle, i guess i hit a dip in the lawn cuz it went end over end into a cart wheel, ripping my spoiler half way off in the process. my dad had this look on his face like [X(] then he said naw thats okay. kinda funny. but the spoiler was easy to fix, the screw came up through the top of the hole, but didnt make it any bigger. another time i was showing it off to my gf in front of her house. i hadn't tuned it, so i wasn't even running too good, actually a little rich. she wanted to drive it so bad. but i just couldn't had the remote over to her, cuz i knew she would've went right into the big tree in the middle of her yard. in fact, she even said she wants to buy one. amazing how much attention you get when you're out driving a nitro rc. i went to the park last week, and like 6 people complimented it. one guy came out of his house to watch me rip up and down the street with it. my neighbors kids two houses down, stopped playing basketball out in the freezing cold to watch it too. the looks on their faces -----------> [X(] the look on my face doing about 35 up the dead end ----------> [8D]

ok so I went over my friends house. He has a TA03R and I brought my TA05 and emaxx. My ta05 isn't running yet cause I still need to order my bl motor for it. So I ask him if I can drive the 03 and he can drive my emaxx. He knows how to drive and we trade. Then we're going around in this little parking lot and on the side is a civic idling with someone in the passenger seat. My friend wasn't really paying attention and got a bit to close to their car to stop. So he crashes into the side at about 6-8 mph and it just makes a loud thud. Then the person opens the door slightly and yells, "***!" then gets back in the car (for a second I thought they were gonna drive off and crush my emaxx). But then they get back out and try to pull it out but they were sorta ripping the body in the process so I asked to do it myself. They're just said, "no you just wait till my husband comes and then you'll be sorry." Anyway so her husband comes and asks what happened and of course doesn't listen to me or my friend just to his wife who's yelling "get this ugly car out from underneath my car" I told them just please not to drive the real car. The husband pulled it out and we said we were sorry but he just said,"sorry isn't gonna cut it." amd left. What a ***** and an ***! I hope they never have kids!
