Welcome to the Traxxas Slash 4×4 Review – Here I will show you why the Traxxas Slash is the most Bad-A$$ Short Course Racing Truck on the market today and why you need this beast to crush your buddies at the track!
So what’s all the fuss about the Traxxas Slash!? Well the guys over at Traxxas have built a monster of a electric race truck and it’s 4×4 to boot!
Before I get into the nitty gritty of the Traxxas Slash 4×4 let me just say that I own this puppy, and I’ve been ripping it up at the local track for a couple months now. I can get it to go about 60 Mph on a good straight stretch.
These days with the economy in the gutter it’s hard to find cheap rc cars for sale, let’s face it people – everyone is looking for discounts and deals.
We have always stated that the 2 best RC Hobby Shops online are RC Planet & HobbyTron – They both have a wide array of cheap remote control cars for sale if you look on their websites. Here are some of the cheap RC brands you can find…
Does that not look like a championship list of RC cars & Trucks for Sale? Just remember that in our world of RC, cheap means $100 and under, if you want the really cheap kind of rc cars such as Tyco or Nikko then that’s fine as well – just don’t expect much from them.
Ok I’m sure you’re sick of me talking – check out the new article posted on the site – Over And Out!
Coming soon to a rc car hobby shop near you - the all new KyoshoEP Fazer Aston Martin Touring car – built with the newcomer in mind!
Here is what Kyosho had to say about their new product coming in Mid October…
Kyosho, does it again! EP powered 10th scale sedan at an extremely affordable price. The new FAZER brings you the intensity of electric racing but not the heavy cost of getting started. KYOSHO’s design expertise has been fully applied in the creation of an entry-level EP touring car. Easy control and setting characteristics have been combined with speed and performance. As this machine is focused on driving performance, the advanced shaft-driven 4WD chassis is fully pre-assembled and comes packaged as a Readyset. Just add a 7.2v battery and take your place on the starting grid. The FAZER is made to KYOSHO’s highest quality standard and achieves the optimal balance between user-friendliness and performance. Now is the time to experience the thrill of EP touring car racing!
The EP Fazer is loaded with features you can check em out after the jump…
Whether it’s a crazy jump or a demolition derby everyone loves to watch other people wreck their rc cars and trucks. I especially love to watch rc car bashing in slow motion, so I compiled a top 5 list of the best RC car bashing videos in slow-mo.
Traxxas has unveiled their latest line of product today – The Traxxas Slasher 4×4!
Ok, usually people start off with this whole “this crazy RC Trucks is gonna blow you away!! it’s so friggen’ crazy!! oh my god!!” – Well, I think that is an appropriate way to begin this one as well.
It’s 2009, almost 2010. How far has our engineering technology come in the last 2 years? Well – you can see it in this rc truck. Traxxas really did pull out all the stops to try and make this one of their best products. It’s still being shipped to suppliers and will be available probably in the next 2 to 4 weeks.
Let’s take a closer look at it:
Made with Traxxas Velineon 3s Brushless Power System – 40MPH+ with included 3000mAh 7-cell battery pack.
If you’re like me and love Traxxas products then there is something in store for us all in the next couple days.
On October 8th Traxxas is releasing details on a brand new product!
There is a lot of speculation and anticipation as to what it could be. Some people are saying it could be a rock crawler, another revo, or a short course truck, but really noone knows.
Our friends over at Kyosho America have just come out with a new Inferno series conversion kit. The purpose of the new kit is to convert any inferno series rc car, truck or buggy whether it be off road or on road.
“Included in the kit is all of the hardware including a universal one-piece molded plastic radio box and battery tray which is designed to fit either 7.4V LiPo packs or 7.2V NiMh packs. Also included is an easy mesh machined aluminum motor mount that uses a single top screw design that can be easily accessed for perfect gear mesh adjustment.”
So this is good news for all the kyosho fans out there including myself, pretty stoked about this one!
New Buggy Body No. IFB501 (GT and ST series will not require a new body), note IFB501 body will fit 7.5 and MP777 chassis. A new body will be released shortly for the MP9.
Here’s a sweet edited RC Cars video of some RC Car freestylin by some brothers in Sweden. These dudes emailed us awhile ago and we finally got to the email and decided to post it.
After a hiatus of nearly two years we here at everything RC cars are back on the wagon!
You’re probably wondering where we went because to be frank we haven’t updated the flippin blog in a long time. In truth we have been updating our knowledge on the RC car racing scene, trying to learn the ins and outs of what it takes to be a champion in the viciously competitive RC Racing tournaments.
That being said…
Everything-RC-Cars will be having a huge makeover… no not like “insert crappy chick show here”. No everything RC cars is going full bore into the heart of RC land. We will be bringing you regular updates on one of your favorite hobbies, some of those updates will be in depth RC car & truck reviews – tune up tips and tricks, special events and the odd hot body – yes pun intended.
Also stay tuned for some BIG news coming out of Everything RC Cars in the coming months.
The new Lazer ZX-5 SP adopts the same wheel sections as the new specification version of the ZX-5 that entered into the 2007 World Championships. This newly designed suspension shows superior turning performance at different speeds and on a variety of different surface types.

Easy control of the machine’s airborne posture marks it as an advanced racing buggy. Whether racing competitively at the highest level or turning the nearest available off-road space into a race track, the Lazer ZX-5 SP delivers winning speed!
