RE: Best Buggy to 400dollars

RE: whats a good 1:6-1:8 scale rc in the high $200's
The CEN trucks are awesome... i had the big ones only. but the small ones seems fun.. i seen they run. Its not as fast as Jato but still very fast ..about 45ish. but you can get them for less than $300. Its 4WD too so you can actually drive the car.

RE: CEN Genesis Generations
I got one last year and it works fine. Minor problem here and there just like any of my previous R/C Cars. I bought another one, the latest GST 7.7 and that works really well too. You will not find a R/C car thats perfect. Depend on the price. as long as the truck is complete without missing parts, less than $400 is defintley worth it.

RE: The Best Monster Truck
for the last time... if Smartech run a 20 page Ad in RCCA like Traxxas did, their big foot will be the best monter truck EVER... you might have a point but so do I. On top of that, if you are going to questions CEN's NX76 based on extreme's dyno, might as well questions PIco, Novarossi, Axial, RB, ...etc all together.

RE: The Best Monster Truck
[quote]ORIGINAL: duckedup selective memory... not surprising.. [/quote] More like you have short term memory. Go ahead and do a search. Find where i ever made that statement. Stop accusing people. "A .32 = 3.5 + horsepower according to almos every r/c engine manuffacture.... so a .46 can produce 5hp ... isnt too much off.... unless of course, the entire r/c industry is lying " This is all and exactly what i said. IF you ever take a math class, you will be able to figure it out too. All the engine manufacture claims their .12 engine puts out 1.0-1.3hp. .28 engine puts out 2.5-3.0hp. Therefore, a .46 puts out 5.0 hp makes sense. Simply Math. Now, are these numbers true / accurate? i dont know and i dont care. I tend to belive it becuase every r/c engine manufacture including Pico, Novarossi, RB, Axial....etc are claiming alike. Therefore, either its true or all of them have no idea what they are doing because all of their #s are far off from the extreme dyno Now back to the magazine, You advertise , your product is the best of the world. IF they dont like you, your stuff is shit...

RE: CEN #2 Thread...
honestly, why r we arguing about this? If this is happening on traxxas forum on traxxas website, it will be long gone and all of us will be banned already. CEN actually tried to help here (maybe not all the time..) and we shouldnt take it for granted. Some members are posting negatives things here just to get attention then get free stuff to cover their own mistakes. I seen so many of them in this forum. THey never post again after they get the free stuff. Besides, what other manufacture even cares of their customer? None of them even come on and post. btw, this thread is still alive with all the bashing and the cen thread 2 is still available for view.. i really think all of us overrated. Afterall, LS7075 might be working for traxxas ...j/k

RE: Cen Genesis Vs Team losi Lst
well... i know you dont want to hear it but i do have Genesis and a GST... just nto nemesis [;)] in my honest opinion, my truck is very compete with revo and lst. Revo is faster on smaller track, but cant compete on bigger track, especially with lots of jumps, double, or rough track. LST is very similar to the nemesis but i prefer Nemesis over it because i want to be different. anyways, 80% of people at the track drives a revo / lst, but that doenst mean its better.

lol... i said manufacture exaggerate their # but that doesnt mean the stupid extreme magazine dyno is accurate. For all i know, you can just pay them and they will say whatever you want them to say. LOL Hot bodies claim 4.8 hp on their truckzilla, Axial claims 1.3hp on their .12 engine, OS claims, PICo claims, Novarossi claims... whats your roblem? I could careless how much hp it puts out. All i care is my truck is dialed and has shit load of power. Thats all i care. I also know for a fact that if you install LST's engine in my truck, it will perform like shit.

[/quote] lol.. i agree it cant compete with truggy.. but again, NO monster truck can.. LST, Revo wont be competitive against Truggy either.... but against Revo, nemesis should be able to handle it, my 3 lb heavier GST has no problem beating them.

I have only good things to say about CEN and their product too. Very well done. seriouly, i think we are making a big deal out of this, its like the only threads CEN ever locked despite all the bad talking in the past. On the other hand, posts like that does turn into flame war..... they always did. Not to mention thats his 1st post after owning 2x CEN truck. It is right after GST came out too. It does sound a little fishy... maybe thats why CEN lock it. Maybe LS7075 works for Traxxas... j/k [:)]

it has the Skyion DSX radio... works perfect for me..... The diff housing is aluminum, but it doesnt have the aluminum tranny housing. The engine is different, black head now. Anyhow, Nemesis 7.7 is still a better performance truck IMO but it just has less features like reverse, 3 speed,....etc and more expensive [;)]

Whats up with accusing me? Someone already post GST pic before i do, lid on and off in the CEN forum. I dont feel the need to repeat it since they are identical.
