Default Re: VATERRA Twin Hammers 1.9 Rock Racer

Well after some more time at the wheel of this one I added the sway bars which the front one helped some on the stability but the way the rear one attaches it is pretty well useless. I also added the front diff locker and it helped with the crawling part of the truck and helped some with the stability in a turn. Over all I was still not happy with the truck especially with the performance compared to the $400 price tag.

My friend and owner of the hobby shop I go to had all ready figured out I was not happy with the truck so he suggested I trade it in and look at something else. I had planed to get a Tamiya Super Hot Shot but I have been doing a lot of work on Nitro cars for some friends and started thinking about getting one again. I have always stayed away from nitro because my first experience with owning one did not go well. It was a Duratrax Maximum ST (piece of junk) and I disliked it so much I converted it to electric. But after working on some nicer trucks I decided to give it a try again. I traded in the Twin Hammer for an Associated Monster GT 4.60, 1 gallon of fuel, and a glow igniter even up. So far I am very happy with the new truck.
