Traxxas Monster Jam Replica – Monster Mutt Review From: Traxxas Direct Link: Traxxas Monster Jam Replicas – Monster Mutt Review by Brian.When Traxxas announced the Monster Jam Replicas, there were quite a few reactions around the office.

THE Venom 1/10th Gambler SC RTR Review From: Venom Direct Link: Venom Gamber – Short Course Truck Review by Cubby Photos by- Sam “The Photog”Ever since the Traxxas Slash was introduced to the world, short course trucks have been all the rage.

From: Electrix RC Direct Link: Electrix Ruckus Review by BrianWhen we first heard about the Electrix brand, it was one of those situations where you knew there was only two possible outcomes. There have been a good handful of companies that have tried to put out a very economical and durable RC, and most seem to fail. Did Electrix pull off [...]
From: Losi Racing Direct Link: Losi TEN SCTE Review by CubbyWhat’s the fastest growing class here in the good ole’ U S of A? The 4wd short course class is of course!

From: DuraTrax Direct Link: DuraTrax Vendetta So I finally got my hands on the DuraTrax Vendetta. Out of the box, it’s a pretty cool little buggy. DuraTrax always has a good presentation, and the Vendetta carries on their tradition. Something else DuraTrax does good are their manuals. Again the Vendetta manual was no exception. It’s very well laid out, there is lots [...]
From: CEN Racing A few years ago, I remember talking with some CEN employees, who were telling me that CEN was finally going to get serious about RC. They had been in the RC business for a while, and they had some decent RC vehicles, but nothing really amazing. When the Genesis came out, they turned a lot of heads. They [...]
From: DuraTrax Direct Link: Street Force GP 2 As a basher, I don’t really do a lot of on-road racing, but I do like to tear up a parking lot whenever I get the chance.
