Mine finally left memphis as well, here hoping it gets delivered tomorrow 
On a side note i got my t-maxx running better than it has ever ran today while waiting for my phone. I put it away like 6-7 years ago before my oldest daughter was born and she talked me into getting it running again. I had to clean the old fuel out of the engine, lube it up really good and clean the gel'd fuel out of the fuel tank and lines but after all that i finally got it fired up and it runs like a top. The engine never ran this good, i ordered an os cv-rx(s) engine last night and tried to cancel it today but they shipped it before i could cancel it. Oh well i'll probably keep it and use it anyhow. I also managed to get the engine on my old nitro quake going as well last night. So i'm 2 for 2 today, i just need to wait for a new steering servo for it and it'll be all set for my oldest daughter to play with. I don't know how well a 6 year old girl will do with that much horsepower, but we'll see. Its a simple setup so if she does break it i can always fix it for cheap Sorry for the side story, i know noone here cares but the hell with it, if you got this far you must have had some interest in my story

This makes me want to tear my Revo 3.3 apart and replace the transmission shaft lol.

If I had any idea what it is you're working on then I might be interested.. but at the moment I see a 6 year old going to take a crotch rocket out for a spin.. sounds fun.
Look dad no hands!

Nice, i got mine before any of the newer models came out, but i have about a grand in the t-maxx alone in hopups and aftermarket parts. I spent like $550 for the nitro quake back when it was a new model, you can pick them up now for 1/4 of the price. I wouldn't mind a t-maxx 3.3 but i don't see how its any better than what i've got. I've got the original t-maxx .15 pro, but nothing on it is stock. Most everything is chrome blue aluminum and it doesn't hardly resemble the truck when it was stock. I even got the wider stance a-arms and aluminum adjustable racing shocks. In fact i might be pushing close to $1200 in parts by the time the new engine is install, i've just never sat down and added everything up. I wish i could get even a fraction out of it if i sold it, but theres just no way. I've spent more time modifying it than playing with it, thats for sure. Even took the reverse gear out to add alittle extra speed, and installed the racing clutch, heh. Oh well fun times. I took it out into the driveway today and just had a blast, this thing is really a beast. I can't wait to install that new engine, however i'm afraid i'll need to upgrade the drivetrain next. I hear people twisting axels alot with the engine upgraded. Oh well, it'll be fun, and expensive :/
Mine left Memphis a little after 3:00AM EST and got to Cleveland around 6:00. By 7:45 it was at the sort facility being prepped for delivery.
