Traxxas T-Maxx 3.3 vs Traxxas T-Maxx Classic

[@mrrogers1499]

Great to see a fellow nitrohead keeping nitro alive. We need to rebuild this hobby and get some dirt tracks going😊

[@Dre357]

Doing my part 👍🏿

[@tjgetem3783]

Nitro gang . Electric just don't feel the same I don't get goosebumps from it lol . I've got to hear that engine and smell that nitro

[@richardgordon9649]

Dre!!! This is great!! 2 nitros running together, sweet music to my ears! And also a testimonial of how a proper nitro engine will run when PROPERLY TUNED!! Don't change a thing let us hear them run together. Thanks for the video!! Take care!

[@hybrid32494]

Whats going on my dude! Finally found your channel, happy to see you running them T-Maxxes like me!! Just subbed also, NItroGang!

[@Dre357]

Thanks @hybrid32494 for the sub! Enjoy your live streams when I catch them. Keep making nitro great again, one day at a time. Nitro Gang! 🤙🏿

[@hybrid32494]

thanks man! I'm just happy to see the Nitros are not dead and that a small group of people like you an I are keeping them alive@@Dre357

[@Dre357]

@hybrid32494 yes indeed! 👍🏿

[@hidros1461]

Hell yeah! This made me want to pull my old tmaxx 3.3 back out and rebuild it. Miss those shifts

[@Dre357]

You should! Especially with weather warming up. Thanks for watching!

[@richardharrold8658]

I have to admit the gas 1s got me into it and then they made $hit brushless. Remember the Clod Buster and Blackfoot from back in the day? A revamp of those trucks would be sweet!

[@Dre357]

Yes I do remember those! Never had the pleasure of owning one but did want a Clodbuster back in the day. Bringing those back would have me purchasing one quick!

[@darrincelendano2676]

You can still buy a clodbuster

[@jamierusso5730]

nitro never be out of date.

[@rclife420]

Man ya gotta love the Tmaxx… I love the classic with those tires. Sweet video dude !

[@Dre357]

Thanks!

[@stretchmak4538]

By far the best looking RC trucks to ever come out. Long live Nitro

[@Dre357]

@@stretchmak4538 that's right! Keep burning nitro!

[@danielacamacho-pv3od]

i was thinking about getting just the t maxx 3.3 but seeing this the classic might be the move, i just got into nitro been running the slash for a couple months had some headaches and bought one online used and fixed it. thanks for this vid bro from cali!!

[@Dre357]

You're welcome! You can't go wrong with either one!

[@dereklatshaw3017]

The video I've been looking for. Trying to decide between the 2 now for my first nitro. I know the T-Maxx is a flawed design, but it's a classic that I need to get my hands on before it's gone.

[@Dre357]

@dereklatshaw3017 Glad to have helped! They're both great first nitros! The Classic comes with reverse, so if that matters, choose that one. Thanks for watching!

[@dereklatshaw3017]

@ thanks! Reverse isn’t a big deal, but I appreciate the reminder. Also going to check out your video comparing the Revo and T-Maxx 3.3. They are all on my radar, all legends, and I definitely want to add 1 to my collection before they end up the fate of the other long running models like the E-Revo/Maxx and Summit.

[@Dre357]

@dereklatshaw3017 great idea.

[@dereklatshaw3017]

@@Dre357 I bought a Summit in late 2021 for that reason. I just had a feeling it was going to disappear soon with the scale crawler craze, and it’s a Traxxas legend in my mind too. It’s not for everyone but nobody else ever made anything that can compete. 6 months after I bought it Traxxas axed it. I missed out on the brushless E-Maxx years ago, I need to make amends and I’m ready to change to nitro. The power and simplicity is nice, but I need more soul than an electric motor can provide somedays.

[@Dre357]

@dereklatshaw3017 great minds think alike! I grabbed a red Summit from a local seller for same reason! I also have a E-Revo VXL 2.0 Black Edition. Two discontinued models. I've been slowly grabbing spare parts for both as I come across them, but lately nitro and gas has been my focus. I won't be surprised if the T-Maxx Classic is the next to go. Considering that the 3.3 version is much more popular.

[@michaelgraham2943]

Very cool 👍 I have the classic 2.5 and the original pro15 hopefully I can get a 3.3 sometime this year.

[@Dre357]

That's awesome. You have a true classic T-Maxx in your possession!

[@michaelgraham2943]

Yes sir and with the flaming body

[@joserobinson8419]

​@michaelgraham2943 i got one too i think it has the reverse on it.

[@michaelgraham2943]

@@joserobinson8419 that's awesome mine still has reverse also.

[@David-069]

Very nice trucks you got there i just got me my first Traxxas it’s a t maxx i don’t know much about them all i know about this one is that it’s a 2006 short wheel base 3.3 the graphics on the body look very similar to the 2.5 classic.

[@405SVT]

The classic will always have my eye.

[@Dre357]

Nothing like the OG.

[@DoodMang7]

Im saving up for a tmaxx 3.3 i want the classic too and a revo but man i gotta take it slow. 😂 i have never owned a nitro but they seem very similar to small 2 stroke engines which im familiar with. Been watching a lot of repair and diagnostic videos on them. Excited to try a nitro out. I like my electric for the low noise but want a tmaxx 3.3 cause they seem so exciting to run 🤙 this was a cool video that showed how the 2 compare on power. The original tmaxx seemed really zippy too i was surprised how similar it was in power 💪

[@Dre357]

Thanks. Glad it helped in any way. You're gonna love the T-Maxx 3.3! The Classic and Revo are amazing as well. I have a few more videos involving all 3 trucks so feel free to check them out. Nothing like the Nitro Gang! 🤙🏿

[@johnheckscher7138]

Awesome video, Thanks mate 👍

[@Dre357]

@@johnheckscher7138 you're very welcome!

[@lowellfunk8974]

Why do you leave the other truck running when you are driving the other one? Just wastes fuel and overheating the engine possibly???

[@Dre357]

I was attempting to perform a comparison between the two. Both engines were idling at around 200 and I wasn't concerned with wasting fuel, just wanted to keep the engines warm. I left both running so I could quickly switch between both trucks also. Now, if it was running them in the summer, it might've been a different story on temps. I do appreciate your input and thanks for your thoughts. 💯

[@tjgetem3783]

I fucks with your channel dog this my shit here. What engine you running in that classic? Looked like a 2.5r ive got a classic 2.5 i wonder why they dont come with 2.5r anymore .. you think the 2.5r has a noticeable speed difference from the 2.5 ? Looks like it but i cannot tune my 2.5 my t.5 is all stock tranny carb and engine . Those stock traxxas carbs are terrible man

[@Dre357]

Thanks! It's the stock engine. I was installed the blue cooling head and the tmaxx 3.3 pipe. It still has the stock carburetor. That carburetor can be difficult to tune, but it can be done. I did notice a slight increase in power after installing the pipe and cooling head. I talked to a Traxxas customer service representative and he told me in today's time the only difference between the 2.5 and 2.5R is the cooling head. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

@tjgetem3783 yes. If you look at my Tmaxx vs Tmaxx 3.3 video you can see it installed. You do have to cut a small opening for the stinger though.

Other than a Xmaxx and a Outlcast 8s EXB, no. I'm looking to get a Losi DBXL 2.0 or Losi 5ive T in the future though.
