I do agree James, it did what it was designed to do pretty well, slick smooth surfaces it was good, but, it desperately needed a decent slipper to control the power delivery and the stock one was hopeless without serious mods.

Gaz, the car is nice and light with lipos in, the car feels like it floats around the corners and it soaks up the bumps even better. It'll be interesting to see how a TRX3 goes lipo'd up.

Cool. Have already checked and the lipo fits well, even though the 3's chassis and top deck box it in.

I never had a TRX-3 back in the day but loved driving my TRX-1. Great over the bumps but just too damn haevy to last the 5 mins without gearing down when battery capacity was key. No surprise it goes well with lipo & brushless though.

I never had that problem in 2wd, it was 4wd that I had the dumping issues, and mine was heavy big time.
