Big Squid RC Poll

They do this each year and every year that an Arrma RC doesn't win - the entire system is rigged.

When an Arrma RC DOES win, then it's pretty good stuff.

LOL.

Just went over to vote and saw the first round was closed. The Arrma RC in each group made it into the second round. Go figure!

I'm very surprised the Pro-Line Pro MT beat out the Tekno MT410. I think people just aren't aware of how bad*** the Tekno is

Lol. I didn't even notice that the Pro-Line had won over the Tekno! I guess I was hyperfocused on the Arrma vehicles. Lol.

I Voted...

I was surprised (happily) that the Talion beat the Revo 2.0. And was surprised the Tekno lost to the Proline...

Bring on round 2!

Definitely glad that the Talion won. From the 'Western Conference' of the bracket, it seems like another showdown with a Traxxas vehicle is inevitable though!

Thanks for that. I forgot that the Nero took the title last year. Hobbico/Arrma made a video celebrating the win.

Round 2 has started!

Gonna be a tough round 2 for Arrma.

Talion vs the new Jumbo Slash - I vote Talion, but predict Jumbo Slash will take it, just because new and exciting and hype.

Kraton vs Xmaxx - tough call, again, I voted Kraton, but predict Xmaxx. It is a beast.

Outcast vs Proline Pro Mt - Voted Outcast, and I think Outcast should win pretty easy.

The Losi vs Losi bracket, the new truck will win..

So my bracket has round three as -
JS vs Xmaxx, xmaxx wins
and
Outcast vs SBR. Tough call, but I'll call Outcast.

Round 4 -
Xmax vs Outcast. I'll call it, Outcast.

Finals, scalers vs bashers.I suspect it will be -

Outcast vs TRX. Outcast wins (I hope)

voted both rounds
Go Arrma!

Go get your vote on guys - http://www.bigsquidrc.com/march-bash-ness-2018-round-2-with-a-twist/

Surprised the Talion is doing so well. It always feels like people underestimate how awesome a platform it is.

Looks like Arrma is doing well currently!

Would I get my membership revoked if I take a jumbo slash over the talion and the x Maxx over the kraton? I have seen the unlimited desert racer in person and it is impressive. Also I would take a x Maxx over the kraton too. I will just stay out of the voting and see what happens.

Arrma is putting on quite the show right now. In regards to the Traxxas Desert Racer aka The Big Slash, after seeing and examining it and the Losi Super Baja Rey in person, the Losi is a far superior built vehicle for about the same amount of money. The Desert Racer definitely has the details down pat, but that Losi looks was definitely built to take more abuse. One of the local shops was waiting for Traxxas to send some parts to fix the demo model that they had.

I'l just keep the kraton because I was able 2 lap a Xmas on the track this weekend he was running 8s and I was running 6s on stock sand scorpions. We did a short drag race as well and by short I mean the length of a parking lot and the kraton was victorious again.

Voted! Kraton over the XMaxx would be great.

Ya it was nice lol those Xmaxx r just to big for their own good. Can't flat track like the kraton or typhon can so in the corners he had to hard break just to big the inside line lol. The kraton on the others hand with the steering trim up on 6s punch 9 I could basically drift the hole track I'm going out Saturday to do a rematch lol. This time he is bringing 2 friends a hpi savage flux nitro and a losi mini 8 nitro and of course the Fmaxx lol heavy slow and have to send it all the way into orbit to get a back flip out of a stock 8s outcast. I threw a 17t on the kraton and 2 5200mah 75c for this weekend they thought it was fast before just wait. No way either of the nitro have anything for me I just wish the outcast was done. Might take the typhon 2 and show them what the 6s arrma line is all about lol. Gonna get vids will post on here if I can figure out how if not it'l b on YouTube.
