I like it!
I want one someday, as well as the TRX1. I was a Traxxas fan from the beginning. The TRX3 reminds me of the RPM chassis in a way.

Anyone knows if the TRX-1 or TRX-3 rims fit the RC10.?

I have an ols Traxxas / Graupner Radicator "Expert", and its all metric, if the TRX'es are the same, then no they are not a direct fit.

Dude, you say a lot of illogical stuff......so what
didn't you like about the big bore shocks? Sounds like they were ahead of their time - bigbore is "big" in 1/8th and is starting to appear in 1/10th off road too (well, mainly the X11 which is a special case...
)

This was a nice car, super rigid chassis, very nice combination of shocks, very interesting and unique slipper clutch. Too bad no meaning race result...

TRX-3 - a few weeks ago i bought myself a NiB one on ePay (from a member of this board if I ain't mistaken). In hindsight i paid too much for it but I my finger slipped on the button that week because I had gotten a raise then
I guess the question is, why was traxxas able to do such a good showing with the TRX-1 (esp. in detroit in the hands of Rick Velhow), after which the TRX-1 took national level racing by storm, and then were completely unable to duplicate this success with the TRX-3? What was so wrong about it that it NEVER took off, commercially speaking?
Additionally - wth happened to the trx-2?

Well I got better set ups with the TRX1 shocks. The 3s were not as nice, yes they felt the same but on the cars they perfomed slightly differently. TRX1 are still the best shock I have ever used.
The car though was great.
