Noj Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) 21 pages of advice and still we have no decision. Do you have this dilemma each day when dressing? There is a bloke, handsome, svelte chap, with long flowing hair, who once entered a model shop and purchased a Traxxas Slash. He liked it so much, he bought almost every leccy model in their range. Dissatisfied with such a small number of vehicles, he proceeded to buy more and more, each one bigger than the last, until he had to move house because there were more RCs than space. Is he happy? No, he isn't. For one reason. HE HAS NEVER OWNED A FIRESTORM! Edited June 20, 2015 by Noj 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathaleon Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Well the G3.0 Firestorm Nitro leaves a lot to be desired but I guess that's Nitro in general once you've been brushless Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duo Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Started reading this thread two days ago and my expert advice is that Trumpton was way better than Campbell wick green. And you should buy that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathaleon Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I would advise you read the previous 20 posts and decide for yourself what people feel about the MERV.
