Traxxas “BackSlush” by Scott Oney [Reader’s Ride]

Scott Oney is a Traxxas fan, and hailing from Spirit Lake, ID he knows a bit about snow.

Traxxas Steals the Show In Leatherman Video

This is ostensibly an ad for the Leatherman Leap, “your kid’s first multi-tool,” but with wall to wall Slash and Rustler action, it plays like a Traxxas ad.

Kev’s Bench: What Happened to Monster Truck Racing?

Back in the early 2000s, monster truck racing with independent suspension trucks on local tracks was very popular. People were converting trucks like the Traxxas T-Maxx, Team Associated MGT and Tamiya TNX into full-blown race machines.
