shuff Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 After abit of guidance guys. I'm after a new car for my little lad and my self. Previously had a hype 7.5, sold that and had a firestorm, now got a losinight crawler and maverick ion for the little un'. Now I'm after something with abit of speed that will also stand upto abit of a hard landing ect. Now I like both the vaterra uno and hammers, But how fast would the hammers actually be, with it being a rock racer? I'll be using them at work (cemetery, so hills / woods / grass and Tarmac (not over graves I'll add)) I'm also 2 minutes from a quarry and mountain bike tracks and off roading (lee mill in bacup, rossendale) so that's got jumps and burns in gravel and also places with water and stuff. So would a rock racer be upto producing speed (out of the box) or would a glamis be better? Thanks a lot, Ben. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Hello there Ben. I would defiantly have to say the glamis uno would be the best option for me personally as it has tones of speed! The water wont be a problem either so no need to worry about that, only just make sure the receiver box rubber flaps are closed before use. I've had my glamis for about a week now and I've had it running through water, going up jumps and its amazing honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil.b Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 The twin hammers is pretty slow in stock form. Also the steering setup is terrible and has loads of slop right out of the box. That's not to say it isn't fun, but from what you have described I don't think its the right car for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
