Pro-Scale Funco Motorsports Sand Car 2WD RTR w/Free TRA10947 Gravix Tires

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Ultimate 8S Adrenaline for the Dunes and Dirt! If you have ever wanted to experience the raw, wheel-standing power of a 1000+ horsepower sand rail, this is your ticket. The Traxxas Funco Pro Scale Sand Car brings massive X-Series size and an all-new rear-wheel-drive platform to the lineup. Right out of the box, it throws massive roosts with its belted paddle tires. But here is the best part: we are including a set of TRA10947 Gravix tires absolutely FREE! This means when you are done tearing up the loose dirt and sand, you can swap the rubber and take that insane 55+ mph brushless power straight to the hard-packed trails or pavement.

Pro Scale Detail Meets X-Series Brawn This isn't just a fast RC car; it's a meticulously detailed replica of the full-size Funco motorsports sand cars. Traxxas went all out, equipping this beast with a brutal VXL-8s power system and an Ultra-HD steel gear drivetrain. Because it is rear-wheel drive, Traxxas innovated by adding powerful front disc brakes that work in tandem with the rear motor braking, giving you total control when you need to rein in that 55+ mph top speed.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• Bonus Value: Includes a FREE set of Traxxas Gravix Tires (TRA10947) to effortlessly transition from sand to hard-packed surfaces.

• Extreme 8S Power: Features the legendary VXL-8s brushless system capable of pushing this massive rig to 55+ mph.

• X-Series Sand Car Platform: An all-new, dedicated rear-wheel-drive chassis built for long-travel suspension and massive wheelies.

• Braking Innovation: Equipped with powerful front disc brakes combined with traditional rear motor braking for unmatched stopping power.

• Heavy-Duty Steering: Upgraded metal gear 2085XL servo provides 25% more torque to muscle those large front tires around with ease.

• Scale Realism: Features color-matched LED whip lights with Flex-Tech mounts, polished aluminum-finish arms, and a highly detailed replica body.

• Ultimate Suspension: Extended-length aluminum GT-Maxx shocks with threaded bodies soak up the biggest jumps and roughest terrain.

• Traxxas Stability Management (TSM): Electronic assistance to help keep this RWD monster pointed straight under heavy acceleration.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: With a massive 8S, rear-wheel-drive setup, traction is everything! When you are running the paddle tires in the loose sand, you might want to dial up your TSM (Traxxas Stability Management) on your transmitter just a bit to keep the rear end from passing the front. However, when you swap over to your free set of Gravix tires for the street, experiment with dialing the TSM down. This will let you effortlessly kick the back end out and carry massive, controlled power slides through the corners!
