Just ordered one last night it comes in Tuesday. I’m super excited! Just got into rc cars. Bought my kids some mew4 1:16 cars and they loved them so I bought the traxxas raptor r to play with them and it was insane. Always been a fan of drag racing and hotrods so I bought the C10. Can’t wait!!!
Nice! And welcome to the hobby and your new addiction! Lol, the raptor looks awesome It’s definitely on my radar, the C10 rips! Your gonna love it, congrats 🤙
Appreciate it, yeah this truck is pretty awesome, I own a lot of Rc’s but this is my first dragster, I gotta say I’m having a lot of fun, it’s a new experience for me and this may not be the last dragster you see on the channel, also I have plans on racing the Truck, I may announce more details on that in another video, thanks for watching👍
A lot of drag race guys warm the tires by doing a burn out on a small piece of carpet. It stops the tires wearing as much as doing the burnout on the road.
Impressive for 2s, B. It a Chevy & its beautiful , not to mention its Purple. It almost was but , was offered a xl5 pede @ a ridiculous price & after im done modding it , i'll be back on track, literally. At todays Slash Drag prices it may become a reality TY 👍
Hey brother I forgot to leave a comment anyway I love the color. I think that thing is competition right out of the box and the things a little bit crazy without TSM on it. Looks fun as hell to drive my friend.
I have the same one completely stock with a 3s lipo battery stock gearing my engine never overheats but I have rolled it a few times I have never put it in drag mode it does about 70 plus
Hey B ! Hows it ? Goodness gracious even with a 2S the truck still hauls arse ! I gotta tell ya, I just adore the color purple, its loud and it really stands out, Nice run, awesome as well !!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Yeah it’s fast, I like the color too, I was trying to be careful with it lol didn’t want to flip it on the street, still learning how to take off lol without TSM it’s an all new learning experience, thanks for watching brother👍
I just bought a drag slash, tested everything on a stand first. I took it to the street and I launched it 3 times and on the 3rd time, the spur gear was shredded. I am not very happy about it but now I am not sure if I go metal or plastic. any help is appreciated.
Yeah it was only pulling to the right on launch, however when I switched from tsm to drag race mode it threw off the steering trim completely even though it was centered with tsm initially, I pretty much had to give it full left on the trim to get it to go straight and then recenter it once I went back into default tsm, I was babying it too lol, I didn’t want to wreck out and scratch the body up lol, I probably could have launched it straighter with a little more on the wheel, I’m really liking it a lot, I’ve got a lot of comments about the Losi dragster, so this may not be the last dragster on the channel lol, I may play around with those shocks too and see what I get, thanks for watching 👍
I love this truck. I have a black one. Im having trouble with the motor over heating. One pass and my motor is real hot. Any suggestions on how to solve this problem? Id deeply appreciate it.
Well first I will ask a few questions and give you a few suggestions to the best of my ability since you are there and I’m here and can’t physically see the truck, what kind of battery are you using? 2s or 3s? Are you running stock gearing and stock tires? Have you checked the gearing to see if it’s properly meshed? How hot is the motor? Can you touch it for longer then five seconds or is it too hot to leave your hand on it at all? What is the discharge rate of the battery if it’s not a Traxxas battery? Answer these questions for me and we may be able to narrow it down
Changing a pinion to a smaller one to run 3s is new to me lol, you may gear down if you are running bigger tires but not gear down just to run a 3s battery and yes you are right most kits come with a extra pinion but it’s a high speed pinion, bigger one, not smaller one
If you are talking about it being out of trim and pulling off too far to the right, that’s what it was the trim was really off, in drag race mode there is no Tsm when you drive, only when you brake and when you switch between Tsm and drag race mode you will need to re adjust the trim each time, it’s a whole other animal in drag race mode! I never realized how much Tsm helps until it’s gone lol, spinning out and taking off from a dead stop to full speed with 3s takes practice to be able to go straight on launch, even with a 2s, it’s an awesome truck though! It’s like a slash on steroids! Traxxas had race events at the Traxxas headquarters ( retail shop ) where I bought mine, I wanted to go and race! That would have made for some awesome content here on the channel but I had to work 😩😔
@@rcreviews9894 yes it’s insane how much it helps. Bought mine Friday and took it Saturday to my local indoor track and blew the spur gear out. Somehow the motor screws came loose after installing the 29t pinion. Luckily it’s a cheap ass part to fix

Awesome video my man very nice test hits and runs on 2s great job thumbs up 👍

Yeah that’s what I was worried about, especially on the road I was driving on it isn’t smooth at all, don’t want to wear the tires out

Yeah it’s a sweet truck! Thanks for watching!👍
Awesome Car😍😍😍
Greetings from Gernany✌🏻
Thanks, Germany 🇩🇪 👍 it really is a awesome truck! I’m having a lot of fun with it, Thanks for watching!
At my track all brands use their Gyro assit it makes very competitive and fun
Yeah without it, it’s a totally different truck, an untamed animal! Lol
New friend here from Tasmania sending my support. Enjoy
Appreciate it, thanks for watching 👍
I have the same one completely stock with a 3s lipo battery stock gearing my engine never overheats but I have rolled it a few times I have never put it in drag mode it does about 70 plus
Yes sir, it’s a speed demon, I haven’t ever geared mine up, it’s plenty fast stock for me👍
Awesome vid my RC friend 👍 SUBBED
Thanks, glad ya liked it, thanks for the support 👍

Nice!! Yea those bloody paper s that come with our toys come in handy..jk..but for real ,great video bud..
Lol yeah they do! I’m just too excited to read them most of the time lol kinda needed to in this situation, thanks for watching brother!👍
I have over 800 into mine, can't wait to see how fast it is. I've been working on it for 2 weeks!!!
Nice, 800 huh, that’s quite a bit, you must be planning on racing yours?
What were your upgrades bro? 🏁
@@thex_tazfast_x9842 lol everything : )

I’ve ran mine on 2s and 3s and never had that happen, bad luck I guess, I would just replace the stock gear, just make sure your mesh is right🤙
@@rcreviews9894 Its been 20 years since i meshed a pinion and spur but gonna use the trusty paper unless some new better way came out.
love it!!!
Thanks, it really is a fun truck and I love the scale look of it! Thanks for watching 👍
Truck is a beast 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes sir it is! It handles surprisingly good too, thanks for watching 👍
@@rcreviews9894 yes sir 💪💪💪
I have the same truck! Just installed the mamba monster x and 1412 castle motor with a proline trans. I hope it's kinda fast
Nice upgrades, wonder how fast it is now, the stock drag slash is pretty fast out of the box! 55mph+ fast to be exact running 3s! Thanks for watching!
@@rcreviews9894 yes sir ! It's still being built I took everything to my guy a week ago.
Keep us updated on that motor swap ..?
@@johansanchez1671 so far so good, working on the best gearing.
The gear my buddy recommended is a 56 and a 12 , is that a good gear for drag racing?
You need the Bluetooth GPS !!! if using the brake with no TSM don't punch it but give it 3/4 punch !!!
If its going right stiffen the the right shocks or vise versa...
Yeah it was only pulling to the right on launch, however when I switched from tsm to drag race mode it threw off the steering trim completely even though it was centered with tsm initially, I pretty much had to give it full left on the trim to get it to go straight and then recenter it once I went back into default tsm, I was babying it too lol, I didn’t want to wreck out and scratch the body up lol, I probably could have launched it straighter with a little more on the wheel, I’m really liking it a lot, I’ve got a lot of comments about the Losi dragster, so this may not be the last dragster on the channel lol, I may play around with those shocks too and see what I get, thanks for watching 👍

@@rcreviews9894 everything is stock. The truck is not even 2 months old. I dont know whats going on. Im running a 2s lipo
@@crosson347 how do you know it’s running too hot? Is it hot to the touch or is it giving you an error on the esc?
If you go to speed treads tires foams it will hold straight
I’ll have to check that out🤙
Hopefully you've picked up A GNSS from sky RC
Yes I have one, I use it all the time now 🤙
Changing pinion to a smaller pinion for 3s is normal and a most of Traxxas RTR vilineon cars come with a different size pinion.
Changing a pinion to a smaller one to run 3s is new to me lol, you may gear down if you are running bigger tires but not gear down just to run a 3s battery and yes you are right most kits come with a extra pinion but it’s a high speed pinion, bigger one, not smaller one
Are you running 22t or 29t ?
Stock gearing 👍
Did you ever figure out the reason why it was pulling
If you are talking about it being out of trim and pulling off too far to the right, that’s what it was the trim was really off, in drag race mode there is no Tsm when you drive, only when you brake and when you switch between Tsm and drag race mode you will need to re adjust the trim each time, it’s a whole other animal in drag race mode!

Loosen your slipper clutch a little to help with control off the line.
Thanks for the advice might have to try that out👍
Mine is scratched up kinda bad I'm disappointed because of that but the body is extremely durable
Yeah you kinda gotta be careful with this one, don’t want to scratch up that clean body!🤙
But I love the car I'm super impressed and satisfied
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
More mah won't make it faster just run longer 👍
For the most part you are right but since I’m not using the 7600 mah, I don’t want to make any claims, that’s why I said I’m not sure, speeds may vary
@@rcreviews9894 im positive 👍
Sean P is correct… more mah will increase run time but not increase speed.
@@dal2582 I am aware of this lol, but I don’t like to make a claim about something I haven’t tested, that’s why I say it may or may not
96 mph on a speed run with custom speed gearing
Now that’s fast! Stability is a must at those speeds!🏎️💨💨💨💨
