hey CA, that savage looks pretty sweet, but 500 is probably too much for me, lol
I'll probably go with the t-maxx that 94accord showed me.
So i have to buy the
Fuel (20%)
Application of the decals
Fuel Bottle to fill tank
6 Cell Battery for Easy Starter
Charger for 6 cell battery
CA glue to attach tires to the rim
Are all these things seperate? or what?
And where can i find those things if they are seperate?

Yes and no. Get a really cheap charger (like the one on that page) and a cheap 6 cell (since all you'll be doing is running the ez-start system.

I like pro-line CA glue, medium is probably good to start with.

I think I have a Duratrax fuel bottle.

Make sure to get 20% Traxxas top fuel IMO, not the 10% that was listed on that page.

Now IMO, the T-maxx is the best for the money, and the new engine should do about 40mph. That should keep you busy for awhile

And buy some glue to glue the wheels on right?

The fuel bottle you'd buy (for example: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...1&I=LXD531&P=7 ) holds the fuel in smaller quantities and has a pour spout so you can put the fuel in the truck's tank.

Proline tire glue: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...1&I=LXRD59&P=7
Note: There are cheaper glues, but I've had great luck with this one.

Remember, if you do get the NEW T-maxx, it is due to come out soon, so its a first come, first serve basis. If you want something immediately, get the old one. I'd recommend waiting though.

I have to go now, but if you have more questions (which you should), ask away. I can help you find more products if you need also.

I thought I read that it would come out at the very beginning of September, but I can't find where I read it. Should be fairly soon anyway, and a big backorder list will probably build up as it gets closer to release.

i'd also recommend a good glue, nothing sucks more than pulling a tire off a rim(from cornering too hard). its a pain, and can f*** up the suspension

Yup, if you'd like to get in line for the Maxx. I wish there was a sure way to tell when its coming out, but I just don't know. Might want to read around www.traxxas.com or something.

Post the final list of stuff you're going to order so we can make sure you didn't miss anything
