Giant RC Cars don't come much better than the Traxxas XRT... it's a shame Traxxas are the way they are because this is awesome! IMO it's the only Traxxas you'll ever need.... well, maybe a Traxxas Summit as well lol

I have an XRT and It doesn't do well with really heavy tires. I think a lot of people get sucked down the upgrade rabbit hole because of tires breaking stuff. Also, if you ran the stock tires in the winter, I think that was the culprit for your cracked rims. I cracked both bulkheads running in really cold temps..... and I learned my lesson the hard way. 😅

Looks like some fun days out! I like the big scale trucks when you have space to run them. It looks like the first runs of your XRT were in some very cold winter weather, maybe that was contributing to cracks in the OE wheels? Either way it's not cheap to replace the big truck wheels and tires so that's a bit of a bummer

Funny you say that about durability, cos after your top 10 bashers, I got myself an MT10. First drive - split a tyre cos it wasn't glued, straight outta the factory. Second drive - engine dislodged from spur. Third drive - suspension cracked. I've now fixed all of these and upgraded to aluminium suspension. And just today, the front drive has stopped working. I'm not ragging it or owt, but still, it wasn't as hardcore as I was expecting. And this is after I bought the HyperGo £130 model that has taken much more of a beating. I'm looking to spend up and get a Txs XRT (with the upgrades that Kev has suggested), but it leaves me wondering why I'm seeing a lot more negative YT's on these rigs these days. Sorry for the rant; love your videos and you're the reason why I'm now broke Tomley

So true on Traxxsucks, The X-Maxx and TRX series are the best RC cars in their respective classes, and they have massive market share, so they should be happy. Unfortunately they seem to have this monopolistic ethos and think they own the RC car market and designs. Imagine if Team Associated or Tamiya had tried to sue them back when they started up with their early design copies.......🤡

But I now only have a heavily modified UDR & orange tRX4 Defender after selling my Slash, mini E-Revo VXL & others. Other makers seem to be less complacent & are about keeping customers rather than pleasing shareholders with extra profit.

Every RC car/truck that I have has broken at some point. Usually they break from a roll or landing that didn't look near as bad as most of the bad landings that is survived many times before. My MT-10 just broke a suspension arm from a slightly askew 4 foot in the air jump. Doesn't matter how much they cost or how tough they are supposed to be they all break something eventually. I have been currently battling a Losi Baja Rey. 4 out 6 battery packs I have ran ending with breaking something and I wasn't even bashing it. Hopefully I have it toughened up enough now with all the aftermarket parts that I had to buy. Just part of the hobby...

Just have to say: cracking rims and snapping axles might be an indicator of tha fact that those wheels are bolted on with a bit of an excess in torque. I personally tighten wheels on my rigs with a ratchet because it's way more handy than carrying all those T-wrenches around. And it has an added benefit of consistent feedback to calibrate your human torque meter. However, lost a couple of rims due to overtorquing during the calibration phase))

I’ve owned 12 RC cars ranging from monster trucks, truggies, buggies, sprint style, and drift. Nitro and electric. The most reliable one was my Team Associated nitro sprint. I don’t remember the model anymore. Even being a nitro, it never broke and I drove it A LOT over 8 years. The first edition of the rustler VXL with a 3S was way more than I could handle. My favorite however was the T-Maxx. Although I went through 4 motors and 2 chassis I’ve probably spent $3,000-4,000 on that thing. And not it sits on a shelf for the last 15 years with no motor.

The XRT looks good, performs well but it's huge and a lot of money. Not for me but it is a cool truck.

They are pretty cool but im still a fan of 1/8th truggy the most. More durable I find and I think for the most part it comes down to weight. These heavy units just his so hard when bashing. Arrma Talion is very durable for a truggy even stock. A few upgrades and I think it might even be more durable then my old school savage x witch id say is one of the most durable 1/8th rc for back in the day.

Great photography. The truck performed extremely well. The first location was neat with all the other bashers out there. The beach run was great and I enjoyed the slow motion. Have you tried contacting Traxxas about the wheels. In the states I have called Traxxas when a servo failed after only a few days of running and they sent me a new. You have pictures and if it's a common problem, may be they will help.

Crazy the money they charge aswell as talking up how strong they are then like you said things break straight away. You should have put RPM arms on it instead of original traxxas ones. Mate's and I got vxl rustler 2wd and driveshafts, A-arms, rod-ends, suspension, wheelie bar and other bits were breaking constantly and could never get more than 5-10mins before breaking. The advertising of 70mph+ is only if you upgrade most of the parts. We have so much fun when running but for price paid+ price of upgrades you could probably make your own rc from scratch. Still sic rc but +upgrades I've still been through 3 motor's and 3 esc's.

Wheels are probably all cracked from Traxxas doing the nuts up too tight at the factory. They'd done the same to all my trim screws on my Bronco... So I needed all new trim for it to fit flush against the body.
