Woah! Never thought I'd be featured in a scale news update!! This might be bigger than AMain selling my products :)! Thanks so much for the shout out! Hopefully your set will arrive soon so you can test them out!
Traxxas hasn't done leafs, you see the wire torsion springs around the moulded plastic dampers in pictures. The only leaf spring you can see is the ends of one at the rear and I'd guess that's moulded plastic trim rather than supporting the rear.
I'm both. My TRX4's are perfect for a hike, bash crawling, snow crawling or to hand over to the kids. But I also really like the scale side of things, where you only make it a few hundred yards, but you have a few hundred pictures.
There are going to be a ton of cool builds based around that new Traxxas car once it is released to the public. Everything from 32' Ford roadsters, pre-war F1 cars etc.
I'm a leaf spring fan myself, I love watching that type of suspension move and do it's thing. I built myself a custom truck (built to carry heavy weight) that resembles something you would drive in snowrunner, and I've also owned a couple scale hilux models with leaf springs. And from my experience, once the springs have broken in and you've adjusted your driving style to them, they perform great and give it a more unique feel. And if you like a challange driving a crawler but you don't have crazy terrain, leaf springs will give you an extra challange
Very cool,Traxxas. That first obstacle in the Capo Queen video definitely wasn't called the Devil's butt crack, but it was certainly adjacent. In scale vs design concessions for durability, IMO it all depends on the purpose of the vehicle. I am a true beleafer in form FOLLOWS function though. Tough question.
The Snapon vintage RC car as of right now is only available with the purchase of a tool box. I guess it depends on how badly you want a very expensive tool box.
I hope Traxxas does release a regular version of this. The ideas for other bodies are already flowing. To answer the question if i could only have one style i would pick functionality over form. That said i believe there is a place for both.
I found one of these Traxxas cars. The dealer wants 800 cash. They actually suggested I buy it and flip it for more which I may do but the offers there for you Josh.
i think what you need to talk about next week is what going on underneath the lexan on the new snapOn vehicle. Specifically the motor placement. super cool
I am Dennis from NL, and i collect all kinds of rc cars. They have to work, and go on the shelf. I have a few cars that i drive. So scale and looks is where i go for. Have a nice day. 🤙
I would take more scale, since I have cars that are dedicated bashers. Looks like some awesome new releases this week. Thanks for another great episode.
I have leaf springs on my '88 YJ crawler. My Mashigan YJ has coils, but it is easier to roll back onto its wheel. I also have a Marlin Crawler that's fun, if you're not looking for massive wheel travel. I built a '55 Gasser that has a solid front axle from a Tamiya semi with leafs all around. The super scale rigs I have don't see the abuse the others do. So it depends upon what I want a car to do, as to how scale it will be.
I like durability. The trucks that I have that are “fragile” sit on the shelf. But I’m good with a little bit of fra-gil-a if it’s not cost cutting and it makes the truck look more scale.
Personally, I prefer body posts over every other option I've tried. I race a Fazer platform, and I've seen people running magnets leave their body on the tarmac, and the clipless options like TXS offers on the 4tec seem nice until you're trying to get through a pit stop quickly and you're fiddling around with hidden mounts. Plus, there's something about how posts scream "RC Car" that gives me the nostalgic "fizz."
Great video as always. It'll be interesting to see how the Snap On release shakes out and what the actual retail will be. A scale truck for me would be a shelf queen to preserve it's looks. I prefer function over style, and that's why I like Vanquish, you get style with great ability.
This weeks question is a hard one. The simple answer is, I’ll take one of each please! Gotta have a competition rig super capable, a super scale rig that is inherently much less capable, and a blend of the two for daily driver that is quite scale and capable but has its limitations. If I had to pick one only, it would be the daily driver blend, compromise on the scale features.
Scale wins every day every time! I drive Scale so it works for me and if I feel the need to drop the hammer and drive like a mad man then I drive my 1.9 Wraith. Thanks for sharing your videos with us.
Durability > Uniqueness/Customization/Originality > Parts Availability (Aftermarket and affordable stock replacements) > Performance > Scale LOOKS (I don't care if the car is leaf sprung in full size but runs coils on the RC etc.) Just needs to look like the vehicle without proportions being way off. All are important though and I consider all of it when deciding on a purchase. I like variety, I'm ok with a car that just looks good and isn't super capable because I already have a fairly capable vehicle. No shelf queens, if I wanted something pretty to put on a shelf I'd get a Die Cast or a model, my RCs are driven right up to their limits.
Its an hard question for me Josh. If I'm building it to bash and thrash it has to be fast and tough and goes in the shed when I'm done. If I'm building a carpet queen it is destined for the shelf. Cralwers, uggies, large street cars and a huge collection of vintage....I have bashers and queens amongst everything and I cannot tell which way I swing. On the fence with this 1🤔
Have the bright green GBD-200 for nearly two and half years now on its original battery. Also have the 5610 with aftermarket metal bezal/bracelet. And love it but not the attention from theif types when I'm out
I want to be the scale guy, but I really do like speed, too. I have the Miller rock racer. I plan on getting something with leafs either a Marlin crawler or K10
Remember when you hated 1/24’s and look at you now, next is leaf springs. Also don’t tell Matt that on Wednesday, he’s gonna use it as an excuse to touch lexan 😂
Scale over everything!! Yet both BRX01/02 are a great compromise for scale and performance, for the last push towards scale, the Killerbody Mercury might've shown us how too scale might've been a bit too far? Maybe also the design/engineering of BoomRacing is more solid (in so many ways) than KB's...
I want a good mix of durability and scale accuracy. I don’t beat on (bash) my crawlers, but I don’t enjoy them if they’re fragile either. I love as much scale accuracy as possible - I just don’t want to drive around an eggshell model - I don’t want to be afraid to drive the thing, that’s not fun to me either. Basically I most appreciate a good mix of both camps. I really don’t like visible body clips though (I’ll make an exception for competition rigs).
Good Morning my friend. We are covered up in Snow here in Alabama. I looked all over your website and thingiverse I can't find the scx24 weight hangers and wheels from your custom scx24 video. I thought you mentioned that you posted them or were you just referring to the CJ7 tranny adapter print?
I am hoping traxxas will follow the nostalgia sprint car with a modern sprint car next in 1/10th scale. As to your question at the end, I personally prefer durability and performance over scale 100% of the time.
I love the scale side of things which leads me to buy the less performing vehicle that is super scale and then totally modify it to perform. Man the Traxxas old school sprint car is so cool. I could see one in my future but not before the ripper. Still stacking pennies just in case a ripper appears on the horizon in the near future. The ripper is my unicorns that is because it is the best scale vehicle in my opinion. It checked all the boxes for me. And I literally just bought new clamp rings last week for 2 of my rigs and had I waited one more week I would have been set. Did my first set of wheels with scale hardware and now I am so hooked on the looks. Great more money spent.
I just bought a red spider clone of a Kyosho mini z jeep. Looks absolutely identical down to the controller but doesn’t say jeep on it, but does say rubicon
Great week. Love the new tires from vp. Itonicly, I guessed that vp would release a new tire this year. Haha. Love that sprint car. Would totally buy one. As for the question, I need performance. Amd uts nit hard to make a truck scale. But I'm not spending a pile of money or less money on something that won't do what I'd like. Exept a wpl d12 hahaha. That gets a pass.
I love scale, crossrc is probably my favorite. Then LESU and Tamiya trucks and construction equipment. As long as they function properly as far as drive train steering and suspension is concerned I can modify or turn these rcs into works of art
Just saw this on my snap on guys truck . Its a raffle for all the shops they go to. Sucks it has the bl2s system in it though. I won the xmaxx version a few years back it was an awesome looking rc wish i didn't sell it
Full Scale hard body. With as much performance as I can get from it with out compromising the scale look. Something you would see driving down the road
I would buy something with the biggest aftermarket and spare parts support, so I could optimize the vehicle according to my own vision. Axial first gen diff gear form factor and body posts rule!
I’m not a driver, I’m an operator. Every RC needs to be operated probably. I’m totally into scale looks, maybe cuz of the videos I like to make, so I’ll always adjust my operating to suit the vehicle. Whatever this vehicle is.
About 50-50 for me, I love a good, realistic scale truck, but on the other hand I do like more capable and durable less scale stuff. One of my favorite RC's is my RC4WD/JDModel Overland 6x6, which mechanically has been very durable, not so much for some of the scale details though lol.
Scale & durability are both important...but, if I'm forced to pick one over the other, I'd have to give the 'nod' to durability. If a vehicle is the most scale-looking you've seen, but something gets broken every (or even every few) time(s) you run it, what good is it? You'd be constantly pouring money into it. However, take something that's truly durable, and you can always mod it to look more scale. Something that's "scale" can't always be modded to make it more durable.
Also at 14:25, it’s very very hard to choose one or the other. I have scale vehicles and I have really well performing vehicles. They all serve there purposes correctly, if I were to combine both features scale/performance it would be a really expensive rc. UDRs are good examples of that.
As a mechanic and someone who builds circle track race cars for a living, I need to speak with my snap on man, I need to make financially regrettable decisions 😂
I just didn't want to buy the overpriced toolbox that goes with it. Like for real, just sell me the rc. I tried several times, but my snap on guys just wanted to sell a toolbox.
I used to build race cars 🏎️ blunderbust , demolishing derby and roll over cars , both my fathers raced , I ran out of space friends and family so I play build small cars 😂 , I’ve always been a driver first but I’ll sacrifice some durability for scale lately , it gets tired breaking the rcs over and over again . I drive em way they’re intended,
I dunno about scale vs. performance. Scale stuff is awesome, but performance on trail is still pretty important to me. Guess the answer is lean towards performance. If i want scale detail, thats what model cars are for.
I think it's meant to be "one leaf spring, many leaf springs". So a set of leaves creates a leaf spring, and a vehicle has three or four sets of leaf springs… something, something, purple monkey dishwasher. Oh I don't bloody well know. 🙃👍
@@shaynejenkins446 NO KIDDING I never said that I don't understand why it's priced so high I understand all this I've seen the rest I simply said there's no way in hell that I would pay those kind of prices for that when literally it's just a different body on it with a few minor changes from every other model they release everybody thinks because they make a car that says the word Snap-on on it it all the sudden holds some more value something is only valued at what someone is willing to pay for it and to me then he valued for shit and that's what I'm saying I didn't sit here and say that I don't understand why it cost so much blah blah blah
Why am I thinking about Daisy Duke all of a sudden? What other kind of cars would fit that new Traxxas platform? Just oval specific? I'd rather have 12 scale cars and 12 durable cars than 1 of either, LOL.
Knowing how these pro mos have gone in the past, it will either be "buy this tool box, get this car" or "for every $X you spend, you get a raffle ticket. And et the end of the raffel, some random person will get it". But either way i have never been able to out right buy one of the rigs

First traxxas I'm interested in in like 14 years
Could not said it better!
Since the slash lol
same!
And it won’t be released 😂
@@RcPlayer-tt2vw it will in 2 years, exactly like the Factory 5s and Ultimate Hauler. They just won't have the 3 cent Snap-On sticker.
I absolutely love the Scale News Update, you do a very nice job. Keep that SHEEET up!
I'm a scale guy first so, I have zero issue adjusting my drive style to suit a slightly less robust rig.
Traxxas nailed a whole new exciting class, please do a public release!!! What a beautiful car !!!
Already running videos on the tube of this 1920s traxxas. Nice!
Knowing Traxxas can do the sprint car it’d be nice to see them do a 1920’s or earlier Indy car
Can't wait to see a belly racer from traxxas.
It is an Indy car IMO, sprint cars originated from Indy car
@@chevyon37s yeah. They ran Sprints at the Fair Grounds and then at Indy. I’ve heard some changes gearing or wheelbase
Traxxas is about to create a new oval class! It will bring a whole new crowd!
Oval display cases? These are investments, not RC cars
Bring back carpet racing! LOL
You must run a driver with a minimum weight to be legal.
Hoping they do a non snap on one that affordable
Traxxas will release this to the public, eventually. There's a lot of money invested in a brand new model. And cool looking too
I’ve found the FLD clip less system for the cj7 to be a new kind of pita

In scale vs design concessions for durability, IMO it all depends on the purpose of the vehicle. I am a true beleafer in form FOLLOWS function though. Tough question.
Wow😮 that’s a breath of fresh air for traxxas I’m definitely in on this one 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
My buddy told me about this truck last night! He's tight with his snap on guy 😂😂. Cool to see a weird new Traxxas platform.
They won't sell it without the tool box.
Guaranteed there will be a bunch of re-po barely used 10,000$ tool boxes for sale in a couple months
The Snapon vintage RC car as of right now is only available with the purchase of a tool box.
I guess it depends on how badly you want a very expensive tool box.

I love these 5am SNU’s. I watch them while drinking my coffee before work 😎
Yep! Same love it. Keeps me going

So scale and looks is where i go for.

Love the weekly updates and look forward to it every week.
I'm sure other manufacturers will make that Snap-on type car...will just wait for those cheaper ones to come around 😅
I would take more scale, since I have cars that are dedicated bashers. Looks like some awesome new releases this week. Thanks for another great episode.
Was that leaf spring part you said a quote from me?
Interesting question this week. I have some of each scale and performance while in search for an optimal balance of both except mirrors.
That clipless body mount for the CJ is the greatest thing
Like that hoodie brother! From a frosty -5 Kansas City forever Royal!!!

Knowing how these pro mos have gone in the past, it will either be "buy this tool box, get this car" or "for every $X you spend, you get a raffle ticket. And et the end of the raffel, some random person will get it". But either way i have never been able to out right buy one of the rigs
Durability all day every day!
