I just got a brushless Traxxas Slash 2wd for a pretty good deal on eBay for $225. It has 2 LiPo batteries and upgraded parts. The guy that had it before I did put the arms that usually go on the back and put them on the front. It makes is a little bit longer than the stock Slash, I compared it with to my friends, which is why it has the 1/8th Redcat body on it. The only problem is it goes faster going backwards than forward and I have no idea why. Can this be fixed? Other than that its very fun.

Re-program the ESC with the radio's throttle trim centered. You can probably google directions easy enough.

If you get into it at all, get many extra parts. They break easy.

These are too expensive for my taste.
