    MX Acres did a series on the Bandit, tyres, shocks, springs etc, to see what worked. Worth watching.

    I don't care what people say or how bad the car handles on track....you'll get used to it. It's a cheaper way for people to get out and enjoy some FUN racing were everyone's car be competitive with the same vehicle and it's not all about money and it doesn't have carbon fiber this and that. In my eyes this is the most fun racing I've ever had in my life and I started with ni-cd batteries and traxxas Eagles.

  • @michaeldorich4485

    I am glad to see your using the Bandit as a box stock class. It's a very good class and a very good car. We ran them with a school group and they were great, We ran them on gray carpet so they pushed a little in th high speed corners. As you can see in your video they jump very well. My pet peeve with Traxxas is with their transmitter. Every transmitter in the world has the ability to reduce the throttle with a dial or switch on the transmitter, You don't have to go to the speed control and go through the process which is a pain. I am so old I remember when cars like the RC10 had a wire mounted wing. I think it's a great idea and people will have a lot of fun. Keep up the good work.

    Traxxas needs to come out with a mid motor Bandit. It doesn't have to be that great, let people customize it for extra performance. But with carpet racing being so common these days they need a mid motor chassis setup just so people have some extra tools to work with. I'd buy a mid motor Bandit day 1.

    • @8BWN
      @8BWN 6 місяців тому +1

      I agree with the mid motor idea. It would've been cool to see Traxxas completely revamp their 2wd lineup with new mid motor chassis for all vehicles along with the switch to the BL-2S

    This is an awesome idea. Literally anyone can enjoy the hobby. No $1k rigs, no knowledge of setup needed, etc. A kid can get a $170 car for Christmas and be competitive in racing. Btw, didn’t Indy used to have a bandit class several years back? I think they even had stock bandits you could rent if you didn’t have one. Anyways, definitely looking forward to seeing this class take off. I wish it wasn’t such a far drive or i would be all over this. Not too serious or competitive, just plain fun.

    You need the traxxas wheel hexes and then you can use regular wheels and tires. You can also use a 28 t pinion if you move the motor to the back hole which gives it good speed. We have been messing with them at our track.

    this was my first hobby grade rc car back in 96. back then you didn't get anything but a 20 turn stinger motor plus mechanical speed control and you had to build it yourself. the output yokes attached to the differential different back then and you had to use a tool to put the driveshafts together without breaking the output yokes. i broke a output yoke so couldn't run it till i found a rc shop that had the parts and where i got the car didn't have any parts. so i had to find a rc shop without internet or a cellphone and looked up rc tracks in the back of a rc car magazine. found a track 15 minute drive from me and they had the parts needed to get my bandit running. been in - out of the hobby since then and just getting back into it again with 3 traxxas sct's 1 2wd plus 2 4x4's then a dr10. i have same into the used 2 4wd slash's and dr10 that i do for the new 2wd slash kit.

    I have that same exact bandit, i have my own track in my big side yard behind the storage building and my bandit has been "upgraded" to a 4s brushless system with anaconda tires and does not go anywhere near the track it is an on road car only. Im not just saying outright that it sucks bc i enjoy driving it, on road, but i understand why people say it does suck and theyre not completely wrong, just a little bit.

    The 2wd traxxas platform fucking suck. Even in mudboss spec slash wingless bandits this class etc. With that said its nice there is classes like this for the kids and the people who cant afford or doesn't want to spend thousands of dollar's just to compete. I have over a grand in a scmod and have smoked a hundred dollar set of tires in one night. It gets really expensive and discouraging sometimes so this class is great to get peoples feet wet into the hobby.

      It's because there are a entry-level rtr company not a race company. Buggy don't make good bashers amd that's the only thing traxxas is some what good for. The only competitive racing you can do with one is with traxxas only classes like this. No way this car will ever hang with the b6/b7 platform or any other race bread company.

Traxxas is sold everywhere all over the world and parts are everywhere amd for racing you want parts on hand. Not have to order overseas. Atleast it would be for me to purchase even the whole vantage model. You also stated build a little bit? It needs to be box stock to compare cars not a slightly buit vantage can out perform a box stock bandit. I could build a bandit to out perform a vantage if I can build it a little 😂
