    Well gentlemen it has been a fun ride.

    Time to sell off what I have and move to another brand. The Torment was my first ever RC vehicle. Shame......it's been the most durable truck in the fleet.

    Throwing a metal spur on the car isn't always the answer. He needs to find out what the root spacing issue is first. It's better to Strip a plastic spur than an idler gear or something else in the transmission. Spur gears are cheap and can be changed quickly.

    Spin right round,

    I race 2wd buggy and stadium truck. It's impossible to take a turn/corner at full throttle with a 2wd vehicle. You need to brake well before the turn, coast off throttle or feather the throttle thru the turn, and get back on the throttle once you're 3/4 - completely thru the turn. If the turn is...

    ECX Torment 2wd bodies!!!

    Proline and JConcepts bodies fit. Are you looking for a clear body to paint or one that is already painted?

    I built this a while ago, but finally got a chance to drive it at my local outdoor medium grip clay track. What a fun truck to drive. Here's the run down..... *Hobbywing QR10BL120 sensored ESC *Maclan 13.5t sensored motor *Traxxas 2075 servo with Savox 0251 Steel gears (It's the only servo I...

    A question about the battery brand

    I've never heard of this company, but they have great prices. Give it a go and let us know how you make out. If you're iffy about it, look up Ovonic batteries on Amazon. Good ,reliable batteries at a great price.

    I'm curious as to why you do this. Nothing more than curiosity that's all.

    My 1st ever vehicle was A 2WD Torment. I loved that truck (it's now a Circuit).I drove that for almost 2 years before I got a different vehicle. I really enjoy driving 2WD so much more than a 4x4. All my race vehicles are 2wd as well. Fewer parts to break and maintain. My ECX vehicles just...

    18t Pinion might be the ticket for you. I rarely pull full throttle. At the most 3/4 pull. I'm more into jumping, cornering, wheelies and drifting. Not into top speed at all.

    Out of the 14 trucks that I have, my 2WD ruckus is probably the most fun and gets bashed the most. BTW, I only run 2s. 3s seems to break stuff.

    I'm glad you like the shocks. I use the traxxas progressive springs with 35wt Losi oil on all four corners. I'm using 3.2 Truggy wheels and tires with 17mm adapters. I haven't had one problem with my shocks. I'm geared 87/19 in the winter (Nov-April) and 87/17 in the summer. I live in...

    I also use front stub axles from a Slash 2WD. You have to shim quite a bit, but they work well.

    Brushless Motor & ESC Upgrade - ECX AMP

    I disagree with this. If your Gear mesh is set correctly, then there is no need for a metal spur, even on 3s. A metal spur is just a band aid for poor gear mesh. Also, check to see if there is any wobble in the spur gear. If there is, then something is loose.

    Definitely get the rpm arms but stay away from the rpm steering knuckles and castor blocks. The rpm plastic is too soft for these. Get Hot Racing Aluminum steering knuckles and leave the stock castor block. Ecx shocks are ok. I like the Traxxas Big Bore shocks better. Great shocks. Cheap, they...
