Man, your video editing skills are awesome. I love the cuts and booms and instant installs on some of the parts and sound effects when you snap parts into place etc. Very cool Kev.
Great to see you promoting the fun side of competitive racing. Also, you’re pretty darn handy at racing. Good lines and throttle control. All those years of wielding a tx definitely helping!
I like the proper race videos. The ARC Raceway stuff is fun, but its so casual there is no real tension\competition. Hope to see more racing. Would really love to see some proper monster or truggy dirt track racing.
since the truggys where born, no one races monstertrucks anymore, because truggys are the op version of monstertrucks with the handling of a buggy, so monstertruck racing isnt a class anymore... ( racism!)
You've done it now... Because of this vid I ordered a proper race car, I've never owned a brand new one before so I'm super excited to get it, assemble it and look like a jackass learning how to race it properly. Thanks Kev for giving me the inspiration!!
I got so focused when the car was on track that I thought Spencer Rivkin was driving!! He's a professional driver for Team associated with multiple world championships!! You make it look easy, lol
Honestly u just get out there and have fun!! I didn’t dirt oval racing but this year the track was closed down… and I’m not gonna drive 2hrs each way to go race.. nah.. so they have become the 2wd shelf queens..
You hate him?... C'mon guys, he is actually good on racing and not just destroying cars. Keep it up Kevs I loved the video and take care always. Looking forward for another one.
Really appreciate the English humility. Too many Americans emulate Ali, but who are not selling tickets to a boxing match ... just presenting with hubris or insecurity. Often hard to know which of the two.
Nice one Kevin, congratulations!! Really enjoyed seeing the building process on this one. I've just gotten into this hobby and dont think I'd have the confidence yet to build an entire car from scratch. I'd love it if you could do a full breakdown of what goes where and how everything works at some point but dont let that get in the way of all the cool content your already producing.
Building a kit gives you confidence to tear it down again to fix something. Imo the diffs are the most complicated part. But they (usually) are hard to break. The easy things usually break well before the complicated stuff. Pre-assembled (rtr) kits are easier for beginners but if you don't know how it works they are hard to fix.
I'm just getting into racing so this series is perfect. My racing is all outdoors on a dirt track and it's so much fun. Awesome vid Kev. Well done on the win 🏆 👏
Me too. Just got into and even though I suck, Have so much fun and loving it and gets more fun and harder as Ya improve and get faster. Soo good. Look forward to racing day so much, so happy after but so bummed when cancelled or have car issues.
time flies when u watch this guy. 1st u remember when a traxxas xmaxx video was just uploaded and then what seems like a few weeks, months have already passed since that video.
Just wanted to say thanks Kevin. I get pretty beatup in life. No enjoyment at all. I have like I have two baja's, and the 5ive and 5ive B never even finished putting together since 2017. I miss it. No motivation. It brought back fond memories watching you enjoy racing.
My goodness Kev that KO Propo Steering Servo is the fastest / best servo I ever seen!!!??? THE SPEEEEEED!!!!??? IT'S INSANE!!!!???? I remember the servos in my Tamiya 1/10 rc cars / buggies wayyy back in the early 90's and they were HILAROUSELY SLOW compared to that KO Propo one mate!!?? They should rename the KO Propo Servo to "KING OF PROPER SERVOS" LOL. Also, that 4wd race car kit / setup performed amazingly well and on the corners it was amazingly fast and precise, like a Swiss Watch of the RC Cars world!!?? Just incredible Kev!!! Thanks!! Wes, Liverpool UK.
Nice job man! I want too get into racing like that. I am messing with a wl toys buggy right now. Learning how the buggys run. BTW I love the editing your bro is doing. Great job too you both.
Too many channels spend 50% talking about the specs. Not many people care about the kv rate of the motor, the chassis material, or their of the servo unless they want to buy one.
It's critical that you get those diffs packed full with oil, the car will handle much better! You're rich, dont skimp on the oils, haha. fill the diff till the oil is crowning slightly and give the front & rear diffs about 5-10 mins to let the air bubbles escape. Take a hex wrench or your finger and scrape the crowned/excess oil away so it's not overfilled. Put the ring gear on with the sun gear installed in the pumpkin. The Center diff is the same but youll want to give way more time for the air to escape the 500k oil.
Since you're that good at off road, you should try some onroad TC racing with a car like a schumacher mi8. Would be awesome to see you giving touring car a try!
Assembly required. Experience in plastic molding, machining, welding,lasers,Xray,etc. I was waiting for Kevin to say "with this kit,you need to machine the motor parts from the bits of billet metal included with the kit.LOL The advantage of these kits is you can repair and upgrade them.It looks to be a very high quality kit..
Props to your dentist Kevin, strait as mate, I wish I could afford that look, awesome build as well love watching you build then send them of jumps, sick.
Congrats on the win, the rc club I raced 1/10 touring with moved outside when covid struck and it just wasn't as fun outside without the close racing and barriers you get indoors. We also didn't have that banging set up with ramps jumps and bumps used to get moaned at if the carpet had a lump in it 😂
I raced a 4wd in the 2wd class - what position do you think we will finish in? 😂
Nice kev
Love the vids! You got me into the hobby
First
@@XaviersRCs no I was
5th
The "blah blah blah" gets me every time 😂
Hi other v1nce fan

@Arrma 4Life Well somebody got bit by the mad bug todaaaay 🤣
He’s just stating his opinion nothing wrong with some suggestions!
Exactly @hudson hensley
He said hr doesn't really like the racing stuff he more of a basher and rock crawlerb
since the truggys where born, no one races monstertrucks anymore, because truggys are the op version of monstertrucks with the handling of a buggy, so monstertruck racing isnt a class anymore... ( racism!)
I like this type of video! Kevin going to the track! Proved everybody wrong that day, you CAN do more than just break your rc cars 😂
Vinny giving the finger to everyone and not even realizing it 🤣 Great racing Kevin
I'm pretty sure it was intentional
IM SAYING LMAO
You've done it now... Because of this vid I ordered a proper race car, I've never owned a brand new one before so I'm super excited to get it, assemble it and look like a jackass learning how to race it properly. Thanks Kev for giving me the inspiration!!
what car did you get?
I got so focused when the car was on track that I thought Spencer Rivkin was driving!! He's a professional driver for Team associated with multiple world championships!! You make it look easy, lol
Honestly u just get out there and have fun!! I didn’t dirt oval racing but this year the track was closed down… and I’m not gonna drive 2hrs each way to go race.. nah.. so they have become the 2wd shelf queens..
I was like "holy crap, that servo is dumb fast!" Then I saw the price tag on it and understand why now 🤣
Love how happy you were! Enjoying what you do is what’s it’s all about in rc!
I agree smiling ear to ear not upset if he got 3rd just having fun.
I wish this kind of racing wasn't so expensive, it looks like so much fun!
Is it expensive tho? 4-5k is fine and im just a worker. get ur priorities right.
@@svampae I can think of a lot of things to spend that much on.
Like 4 xmaxx’s and parts for them, electronics, basically about anything
@@svampae lolol OK thanks
@@svampae 4-5 k is really expensive u can buy a real car for that
@@svampae LOL, sure buddy
Oh Kevs at it again!
You hate him?... C'mon guys, he is actually good on racing and not just destroying cars. Keep it up Kevs I loved the video and take care always. Looking forward for another one.
My dog is tripping out from all the sound effects. 😂 Excellent video Kevin, always a lot of fun to watch. Hope you're having a good day.

When is max 4 going into the raminator?

@@KevinTalbotTV put a max8 in the slash next
Put it in the xmaxx

get the cheapest Tamiya kit you can find. It'll teach you fast

Kev loves the AWD. Can see it the mains, track positioning and loading the car up around corners.
time flies when u watch this guy. 1st u remember when a traxxas xmaxx video was just uploaded and then what seems like a few weeks, months have already passed since that video.
I thought the track lay out that week was brilliant, Someome great driving there! , awesome videos as always 👍
Kev just wanted to say thanks for the RC inspiration
I FREAKING LOVE THESE VIDEOS! Keep it up my man🔥💪🏼
YESSS NEW VID, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
I must say. Your build videos are better than any pro racer's video on the internet. Great stuff kev.

You are literally the embodiment of "Get it done". All those parts are just parts to you. You just get it done. That's what's up..
finally racing again i love this
I like the race track videos...
They look really fun.
Love these build montages. Those parts are epic!!!
Now Kevin needs to race against other 4wd cars. 😆👍
Fun was had. 🤗
Awesome racing content. This makes me wanna get into racing 🔥
Kevin is a lot better driver than I thought.. I'm impressed!
I absolutely love these types of videos from you Kevin, keep it up 💪
Nice job man! I want too get into racing like that. I am messing with a wl toys buggy right now. Learning how the buggys run. BTW I love the editing your bro is doing. Great job too you both.
I love the way Kev always makes his videos so much fun keep up the great work
Finally not a RTR car, something you actually need to build before you can play with it
Finally, an influx of videos! Great as always and well worth the wait!!
Any one else see how satisfying it is when he’s using the drill
Kevin...You make it look so easy ! GREAT VIDEO ! :)
The Team Associated looked great. Would love to see a Schumacher Cat on the channel!
I love assembling a new kit. Be it a fun Basher from Tamiya or an all out competition buggy or on road. Love it. Very rewarding.
Keep up the amazing videos show more different kinds of racing please rc racing what got me in this hobby 30 years ago
I do enjoy the racing videos but what i enjoy more is a basher goofball spanking the guys that are there every weekend well done sir.
That front running gear is a work of art man.
Those smol people ladders look hilarious xD
I just like how energetic he is and how even he knows not to just bore us with all the stuff

Awesome Kev!!! Great to see you enjoying racing!! 😊👍👍👍
Ruh roh Talbots’ cheating
Loving your racing videos. Nice RC race group too, nice vibe.
Bro my heart skipped a beat when it gave me the notification dude 😫
I do like the subtle editing changes
Assembly required.

I was so excited, than i remembered you had a 4wd 🤣
Awesome driving anyway tho 👍

"Marshall" haha love that 🤣🤣👍
MARSHALL!!
Kevin your editing skills are top notch.
Well done Kev! Those Associated buggies are quality, very competitive too. Fun viewing that!
Well done boss. Nice rig, good driving, and a smile to boot. Thanx for sharing
Nice driving⚡⚡
Nice Racing there Kev.... I would be last in every heat 🤣🤣
looking forward to your 1/8 video coming up. I was so intimidated to go to my local track. and I'm so happy I did. best rc fun I've had.
Hey kev, love the vids. When is the 4 motor hypercar coming back?
no idea they have it at the moment
Love it!!! I gotta try my hand at racing sometime! I'm more into the crawling and bashing!! Another great vid Kev!
Waoow it’s amazing how you be assembling all those tiny parts😄. Good job kev ✌️ 🇬🇭
Nice driving - impressed!! Really enjoyed the build and down low (plus on car) video as well.
Yess! A new video. I love your vids! Im making my slash 4s soon and then im gonna buy a 4tec or a maxx
That is a nice buggy
Congratulations on the win Kev!!!
Props to your dentist Kevin, strait as mate, I wish I could afford that look, awesome build as well love watching you build then send them of jumps, sick.
Like the racing. Great race Kevin
I love what you do at the beginning of every video
Awsome, more IFMAR, ROAR RC racing coverage etc please, including Nitro, forgot EU division IFMAR series name :) EFRA
You should definitely do more videos like this with pro competition rc cars..
Love the video kev when is the new xmaxx video
Winner winner smiles all round.

This is nice - To see a more disciplined competition GET TOTALLY KEVINATORED BY THE KEVINATOR!!!!!

Hey man I just started watching your channel and it’s super entertaining. Super stoked you you ran your first monster truck show
That was awesome Kevin! Great video
Must get me one of these some day! ;o Great video as always Kev!
Hi kev, hope you have a good summer
I always love your videos Kev and I think that you should try to make other big things like a drift trike or things like that.
*Game Over*
Well done Kev. Is that like 3 times u turned up and you already have the competition slaughtered lol. Nice job! 🤣👏👏👍👍
Congrats on the win, the rc club I raced 1/10 touring with moved outside when covid struck and it just wasn't as fun outside without the close racing and barriers you get indoors. We also didn't have that banging set up with ramps jumps and bumps used to get moaned at if the carpet had a lump in it 😂
the edit here was on point
Nice one Kev that was a good driving. Congrats.
Dude the car looks great but you need the "Game Over" sticker on the top of the wing. That red sticker would look great on the wing.
Way to go Kevin on the W!!
Well done Kev, Good driving.
