I race tuned my E Revo 2.0 with progressive 3 rockers, 500k center diff fluid, tan (stock rear) springs up front and black in the rear with 9mm preload for both sides, front shocks have 42.5 weight oil and rears have 60 weight. It dramatically changed how the truck drives, it doesn't push in the corners like it used to and it's just so much more nimble and feels very stable compared to stock. It basically drives like a truggy now and I love it, keep up the amazing videos MSM! :)
What is up mark you always make me enjoy / wrench on my old cars again great race between the brothers we need a 5 lap race with you and the boys great vid mark good luck
You should try the E-Revo's little brother, the 1/16 Mini E-Revo! It's an absolute hoot on 3S. I try to grab it with me anywhere I go, because it just doesn't take up any space in the trunk at all :)
These smiles/laughs really help make me laugh and smile and most of all cope with the situation on my plate!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤠🤠🤠I live like 40 minutes from..being some toys to the woods and I will BBQ, griddle smoke some ribs!!
I run my 1/16 revo on 4s and get compliments all the time on how fast it is. It’s a very cool design with shocks on the inside and not exposed and battery trays are inside the chassis. Just make sure and SHIM YOUR DIFFS. Good for rain and snow as well.
i love my Erevo! its my first real 6s truck and it handles a bashing if you do the shock mod with the bushings inside the shock body and outside on the piston. takes big big hucks to flat
The bushings as in fuel line bump stops? I was thinking about doing that but haven’t had any issues with the shocks. Also put the traxxas variable dampening kit in my shocks to reduce chassis slap, do you think the fuel line in the shocks help with chassis slap?
@@V8chump no I did not use fuel line. Although I’ve heard that recommended, I used actual bump stocks the same ones that they use for the top of the shock on the lower piston I put underneath.
Inside the actual shock housing if that makes sense that way as the piston is getting pulled out of the body instead of her in the flat plate with little holes in it hits the rubber diaphragm first it limits the shock travel for sure, but that’s what keeps the shark rods from breaking off
Can you confirm Traxxas “upgraded” the 2.0 at some point? I had two, my first 2.0 didnt have reinforced body savers and it was terrible, was always breaking, needed limit straps etc. I recently got another one and the only difference I can see is it has the body protectors from factory, but its seems so much more durable than my other one? Did Traxxas make any other changes?
they did a few running changes... the most obvious to me are the push rods... they used to be the chrome ones now they are like hardened steel. Im not sure of all the changes but there have been some.
I was fortunate to know about this Black Edition E-Revo and picked it up from a Hobby Shop that I had been going to since a kid. They were able to get me another black body directly from Traxxas so I can enjoy it while it’s on the shelf and while it’s out in the wild!
I was just thinking of getting rid of my E revo 2.0 as I only seem use my 8s rigs anymore. Was debating on trading or selling towards an infraction or dbxl as I don't own a speed/drift rig or anything Losi yet. I love the rig I just hate that it sits on my shelf. This video has definitely made me wanna take it out for a run and keep it.
The Erevo 2.0 is the funnest car to drive. The only change needed is bump stops in the shocks and that fixes most of the rod end problems. That’s my rc park car and I own a wide Maxx and kinda was disappointed in it
Bro that race was awesome had me on the edge of my seat....who else has access to a whole track, and runs a E Revo that anyone can buy and go have a blast with....MSM does, the channel is awesome amazing shots of the track with the Revo....the race with the Bros was epic!!!! 💯👍👍
best r/c out is arrma typhon . 1/8 buggy for only $230 . i put a castle sidewinder 8th combo $200 , powerhobby 35kg servo $33 , flysky gt5 radio set $60 , ovonic 6s 4000mah $57 , Pro-Line 1/8 chevy 1980 c10 body PRO324800 $43 , Pro-line Racing 1/8 Badlands MX M2 tire / rim PRO906741 $40 . this is hands down a rocket with awsome handling and the body is crazy cool !
I love my 3.3 nitro REVO, thinking about picking up an E Revo thx for the info good vid. Currently just bought the XRT and that RC is awesome! BIG SCALE!
I got my E-Revo in 2019 for 650, and I think I paid $550? for my Slash Ultimate IIRC the same summer. I break that dang E-Revo nearly every time I drive it. I much prefer the 6s FireTeam I got on Sale at the end of last year for $400. I also just ordered a 6s Typhon this weekend as they were still on sale for $400 off after $100 with code NEWYEAR at Horizon (good until 31Jan2023 if anyone is interested.
I’ve had 2 Erevo 2.0s before, bought both were heavily abused & basically shot when i got them….. Always wanted a blue/black version & after the price cut i finally got my 1st new 2.0! I’ll never let this 1 go either
You ever incorporate David Cutter music in with your videos? I’d love to see you do some intros and videos with it. It seems like it would be right up your alley! Especially “Appreciate that”“Drunk in Hawaii” and “Steak and fries”
Ahhhh Indy RC x Traxxas Revo! My favorite track besides Speed RC! Only the true Ogs know about speed RC. Gianni was a beast! That young kid has a revo and would smoke the whole stand.
But it's easy to know why for that price there are competitors who do the same wthing for cheaper also the e-revo durability in you push it hard is questionable that's why when i bought my rc cars it was either the older e revo or the rustler vxl the rustler vxl won....
Tell Traxxas to come out with a new boat...A SPARTAN on steroids.I Run a spartan all upgraded.I think the same style v-haul,8 inches longer running a jacked 8s system would be a beast!
I have three of the erevo 2.0 and I have a sledge also and I use one of my erevos more often than my sledge and the only problem I ever had with the erevos is on two out of three i had to replace the esc but I’ve had a lot of problems with my sledge but Traxxas warrantied everything so that was nice
The black body looks SWEEET 🔥 I like the Revo much better than the Maxx, mainly only because it's better on the track and it's 6S. That was a battle. Great racing guys 👍🏻 I have to say Ethan's buggy was pushing bad but that's when ya gotta no to back off just a bit to get it to turn - rotate. Playing catch up always makes ya tend to over shoot the turns etc. Ya gotta learn to drive just hard enough to keep the pressure on and wait for a mistake and make the pass. Again great racing guys 👍🏻✌🏻
The e revo is one of the best cause it's an all around car that can handle alot I've beat the crap out of mine mostly unintentionally and it lasted I haven't replaced anything yet my favorite rc
Agree on the Maxx's(big and small), awesome trucks, I like the E Revo too. Sludge, nah. I'd buy a kraton and throw the money saved into upgrades. To each their own though✌🍻
@@EXTREMERC416 Nice!! I have the kexb as well. Been great, really haven't done much to it. My bro bought the sledge, not really satisfied for $800. Then he bought a v5 rtr kraton for $500, loves it! Sledge is great, but needs work straight away.. just our experiences.
The revo 2.0 was my dream car growing up and then I got it it kills center drive shafts and links every time I take it out love the look of the car but it kills it’s self every time never can get a full run out of it kind of a let down but very nice rig
Agree! This is an insanely good deal at $550! My erevo 2.0 is in a different class imo than the maxx. I keep the high speed gearing in mine and it runs like a scalded dog. I have that black body but just can’t get used to it so my busted blue stays 🤣
@@Shadows-RC my erevo 2.0 has the original motor and esc. And it’s been through hell. It got flipped into the lake a couple years ago by a kid. I waded out to get it and got it out - after a solid 5 minutes in the water it was still running lol. I also run the speed gearing with larger heavier tires. Still no problems other than the motor obviously running hotter with the speed gears. And have 4 TRX4, 3 have stock esc and motors. One of those is 4 years old. Zero electronics issues. Other than the occasional Servo going out. Don’t believe the internet. 😜
the revo was one of my first expensive RC cars. The suspension was also super cool to look at
Want to say congrats to Ethan for his second place finish in Cali. Tough breaks on the closing laps, giving up a strong lead.
Ethan is getting faster
Great to watch the brothers showdown... good clean fun.....
I swear I put every single upgrade from Traxxas on E Revo 2.0 and it's solid as ever I love it
I race tuned my E Revo 2.0 with progressive 3 rockers, 500k center diff fluid, tan (stock rear) springs up front and black in the rear with 9mm preload for both sides, front shocks have 42.5 weight oil and rears have 60 weight. It dramatically changed how the truck drives, it doesn't push in the corners like it used to and it's just so much more nimble and feels very stable compared to stock. It basically drives like a truggy now and I love it, keep up the amazing videos MSM! :)
i think im going to do that with mine also.... i probably try your setup... thanks
I forgot to mention that it lands much much nicer, doesn’t bottom out the shock so easy.
What a good race! Those guys can drive for sure! 🏁
The e revo is my ALL TIME FAVOURITE RC !!
AWESOME VIDEO!
Very nice trackside video
What is up mark you always make me enjoy / wrench on my old cars again great race between the brothers we need a 5 lap race with you and the boys great vid mark good luck
Will we get more coverage from tnr event?
I put summit bumpers on mine for lights 💪
NICE. YA THE E-REVO SUSPENSION IS SO PLUSH !!!!!!!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Erevo 2.0 is my favorite truck I own 💯
The slow motion montage with that wonderful music in the background was wonderful! I honestly did not consider this car until your video. Nicely done!
You should try the E-Revo's little brother, the 1/16 Mini E-Revo! It's an absolute hoot on 3S. I try to grab it with me anywhere I go, because it just doesn't take up any space in the trunk at all :)
That was a good race!
I have both the revo 2.0 and maxx😂
Wow that’s so awesome both your boys have taken an interest in racing. Those 3 laps were clean! Wasn’t expecting that from Ethan
Need a low center of gravity, tougher E-Revo 3.0
These smiles/laughs really help make me laugh and smile and most of all cope with the situation on my plate!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤠🤠🤠I live like 40 minutes from..being some toys to the woods and I will BBQ, griddle smoke some ribs!!
Great race with the brother showdown. I have been thinking of a new vehicle. I may just add the e-revo to the stable.
Ethan had a very good run last night
Yess so proud of him coming in 2nd!!!

Thank you for your amazing updates and A true pleasure watch the young men taking the sport by Storm really love watching them grow and race
I love my ERevo, when’s the next Tamiya video?

@@MarkSantaMaria now you mention it I can see the push rods are a different colour. Thanks for the reply. Loving the videos. Keep it up :)
Great racing guys, and that ERevo looks really good....and tempting to get.....
Insane car nice colors
My first Traxxas car. I even got the black body for it.
Great little race, well driven by both.
Really nice slo-mo shots on the track!
I was fortunate to know about this Black Edition E-Revo and picked it up from a Hobby Shop that I had been going to since a kid. They were able to get me another black body directly from Traxxas so I can enjoy it while it’s on the shelf and while it’s out in the wild!

Them boys are really good
Great race
The E Revo is one of my favorite cars in my collection.
love the small edit, bring more of it
Nice track have a good week
I’m gonna put this on the hit list, that black body shell is so sweet! I’m sold
Traxxas's bread and butter! It's an absolute BEAST
I always think this channels videos can’t get any better but you always find ways to do it!!!!🎉
Cool race
Hey Mark let's see the HPI Subaru WRX on this track sir! I love that car so much. Don't jump it or anything, just admire!!
i totally should
Erevo or sledge is my struggle. Your black Erevo is lookin mean tho! 😎
that E-revo is beautiful, might be my first electric
Bro that race was awesome had me on the edge of my seat....who else has access to a whole track, and runs a E Revo that anyone can buy and go have a blast with....MSM does, the channel is awesome amazing shots of the track with the Revo....the race with the Bros was epic!!!! 💯👍👍

Nice video. I'm new to rc Hobby. I've bought a ERevo 2.0 last year. It was my dream RC car. I love the suspension so much. Greetings from Germany
🔥good race boys
Nice race
I have wanted a e revo 2.0 every since I have gotten my rustler 4x4 vxl. I think it needs to be my next traxxas basher/jumper in my collection.
I love my 3.3 nitro REVO, thinking about picking up an E Revo thx for the info good vid. Currently just bought the XRT and that RC is awesome! BIG SCALE!
Love my erevo. I have the max 5 in mine with the stock motor and it is a whole different speed demon even on 6S.
Do you have the part number for the body braces for the Erevo 2.0 ? ? ? ?
Damn that music that you put at the end of your videos is fantastic.
I got my E-Revo in 2019 for 650, and I think I paid $550? for my Slash Ultimate IIRC the same summer. I break that dang E-Revo nearly every time I drive it.

I told myself next time go on sale I have grab one .. if you run alot they wear , nothing like new with little tuning .
I’ve had 2 Erevo 2.0s before, bought both were heavily abused & basically shot when i got them….. Always wanted a blue/black version & after the price cut i finally got my 1st new 2.0! I’ll never let this 1 go either
Yo where to buy the black body for the e revo ?
E for everyone! This episode is sponsored by the letter E. E-Revo, Ethan and Even. GO E!
Hahah!!! Love it!
Ernie Erin Eric.
E-z Duz it.
Like the black. Fun race to watch. Could've watched alot more.
I am looking for a kit to build this winter. I was wondering if you know of any nice kits?
Thanks in advance
That black e-revo looks sick
You ever incorporate David Cutter music in with your videos? I’d love to see you do some intros and videos with it. It seems like it would be right up your alley! Especially “Appreciate that”“Drunk in Hawaii” and “Steak and fries”
Those Hypertough containers in your go bag are friggin amazing! I have a huge stack of them stuffed with parts lol
they are perfect i the ogios too ;)
I feel like traxxas does this when they are going to come out with a new version or discontinue it
Ahhhh Indy RC x Traxxas Revo! My favorite track besides Speed RC! Only the true Ogs know about speed RC. Gianni was a beast! That young kid has a revo and would smoke the whole stand.
Is there a carry all bag for 6s beasts? I’m looking for one.
Love that track
I think you are totally correct the E-Revo is sadly overlooked nowadays
But it's easy to know why for that price there are competitors who do the same wthing for cheaper also the e-revo durability in you push it hard is questionable that's why when i bought my rc cars it was either the older e revo or the rustler vxl the rustler vxl won....
How does the e revo compare to the XRT?
hey Mark are there any 1/10th scale off-road tracks in DFW? Indy looks to be 1/8th only
Tell Traxxas to come out with a new boat...A SPARTAN on steroids.I Run a spartan all upgraded.I think the same style v-haul,8 inches longer running a jacked 8s system would be a beast!

Awesome Bro vs Bro shootout! Those dudes can definitely drive! 👍🏼
Bought an e revo last week solely because of this video. Awesome truck. A lot bigger than I thought it was.
If you need any upgrade ideas I have a shottily made video going over some great stuff with parts linked 🤜🏼🤛🏼
The black body looks SWEEET 🔥 I like the Revo much better than the Maxx, mainly only because it's better on the track and it's 6S.

Great vid . Dig the music too
Definitely was setup correctly good run
The e revo is a dream RC, just unfortunately too much for me. I’m still digging my 2wd slash though!
Come see us at Fasttrackhobbies in Rocklin! Largest inventory in the west!
I really enjoy my E-Revo 2.0. It's a fantastic truck 👌🏻
Best part you got this beautiful track to yourself and you let your boys tear it up. Best part btw! They are good and your a good dad man piece 🔥👊🏻
The e revo is one of the best cause it's an all around car that can handle alot I've beat the crap out of mine mostly unintentionally and it lasted I haven't replaced anything yet my favorite rc
What size are those tires on that
How much more is the long term cost of a 6s system over a 4s?
Great videos!!
Traxxas killed it. They did it themselves with the sledge and maxx.
Agree on the Maxx's(big and small), awesome trucks, I like the E Revo too. Sludge, nah. I'd buy a kraton and throw the money saved into upgrades. To each their own though✌🍻
@@knowair6767 i went exb personally and upgraded 3-4 things on it and thats about it. Came back to the price of the RTR

Upgraded pushrods, wher can I get them?
Is the sledge worth getting over the e revo?
When did the e revo go up in price when I looked at it last month it was at $549??
Couldn't agree more. It's my go to basher
The revo 2.0 was my dream car growing up and then I got it it kills center drive shafts and links every time I take it out love the look of the car but it kills it’s self every time never can get a full run out of it kind of a let down but very nice rig

Front an rear diffs locked up. Center diff leaked
Way too many issues had to sell it
Amazing when it was running tho
