The traxxas stampede is one of my favorite nitro rc cars

Traxxas has been making and distributing nitro rc cars for years now. They are known for the highest quality nitro rc cars on the market today and will be in the future to come. Seeing how popular Traxxas is I decided to make a top 5 list of nitro rc cars from Traxxas.

Here they are…

5. Traxxas Slayer

The traxxas slayer is the bigger bro to the slash and is one heck of a nitro rc car. The traxxas slayer is a short course racing truck and comes standard with the TRX 3.3 racing engine. I love the traxxas slayer because it can race on almost anything but is especially meant for the local track or backyard. The traxxas slayer comes ready to run (RTR) so you don’t have to mess around with parts and can get to racing it right away. The traxxas slayer is the ultimate king in off road remote control car racing and will be for some time.

The traxxas slayer is a 4 wheel drive 1/10th scale remote control truggy. It can go up to 50 miles per hour with the TRX 3.3 racing engine, let’s just think about that kind of speed for a second.

I give the traxxas slayer a 4.3 out of 5. I docked points because the slayer is a nitro remote control truck and it can cost money to run these things. Also the user will probably want to upgrade the tires eventually, not at all a bad rc truck!

4. Traxxas Stampede

The traxxas stampede is one of my favorite nitro rc cars in that it was ranked “truck of the year” by RC Car Action magazine which is the creme de la creme of rc car magazines. But that isn’t all the reasons behind my decisions to make the traxxas stampede #4 on the countdown.
