    Default Big scale vs T/E-Maxx

    Self explanatory. A T-Maxx and an E-Maxx hold back a 1/5 scale monster truck!


    and by the way...THATS ENOUGH!

    If that FG was 4wd it would have pulled both of them...
    I used to loose my balls all the time. If you are afraid of loosing them then just get a tupperware bowl, some grease, and a toothpick. Dip the toothpick in the grease and then catch a ball.

    That maxx truck closest to the camera does not look like it was doing anything? No wheel spin?

    Regardless....I am guessing that a few air filters needed to be cleaned after that deal

    I missed that! The T-Maxx must have been holding there with the brakes on?

    Thinking about my 1/5 FireHammer MT (similar to a FG weight, power and size wise), there is no way an emaxx would hold it back. No way. I'm not sure what the deal is on that video but I would bet some money that I could tug around a maxx with no problem (especially with the Dominator pipe on my MT)! Maybe I am wrong but I do not think so....it is a power/weight thing.

    Ill take a maxx on... with my motor, and some paddles....

    Still. think of how much tire they have on the ground compaired to the FG... (all 4 tires of theirs drive). so more traction on the ground...

    Wow that was cool, and I think Chris hit the nail on the head, if that T-Maxx "spun it's spur" he probably was holding the brakes on. But no matter, it was very cool.... except for the girl (woman) "Okay that's enough. That's enough" I wonder how long that went on?

    Maybe the FG piled so much dirt onto them, they were completely buried and it was like trying to pull them out of a sandpile?

    Sweet vid! . Something about it seems odd though, as i would be very suprised if a maxx alone could hold an FG back. As Chris said, the power to weight ratio is massively in favour of the FG. -vince

    There is something about seeing tug-o-wars that makes me smile!! Not sure why..................it happens everytime though.....

    An emaxx will put up a lot more of a fight than you think it could be able too......in stock form.

    Give it a weighted front bumper, perhaps extended a little bit, and a nice set of batteries and it WILL move stuff.....................As for moving an FG.....................I dunno about that.--------maybe------.
    It does have more footprint on the ground than the FG, just not enough weight.

    True, and lets just say that each maxx produced 2 hp. that would be 4hp pulling on the FG and it wasnt even budging. The stock engine on the FGs is a 4hp zenoah if they kept it stock. The FG is about the size of two tmaxxs and out weighs 1 max 3xs.

    Im with you though. I'll take a tmaxx, savage, revo or whatever on my FG or baja. Especially with my new engine that im dropping in the baja. That engine, plus my tuned pipe, and I would be dragging those tmaxxs. 2wd or not.
