that brand thats kept us offroad clubs from going under

for all the crap they make, the slash has saved offroad racing, it really woke the industry up and has helped the hobby grow. doesnt mean they are not **** boxes that handle like crap and barely pass as hobby grade.

yup and we have a trx section in the scans/archives section, collecting the trx manuals is a hobby within a hobby for me
