TRA68386-4BLUE Traxxas Slash 4X4 1/10 Scale VXL Extreme HD - Blue **SOLD SEPARATELY AND REQUIRED ORDER PART # TRA2970-3S**
Built Slash Tough
Traxxas Slash® set the standard for durability, performance, and fun by which all other short course trucks are measured. Now Slash 4X4 VXL includes a factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit to take brutal punishment in stride. Innovations like TSM®, modular chassis design, and ultra-efficient shaft drive complement Slash’s track-tested precision. Slash 4X4’s extreme Velineon® brushless horsepower provides dirt-roosting torque and screaming 60+ mph speed with a TQi™ radio system to keep everything under precise control.
Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit
Slash's factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit replaces key drivetrain and suspension components with beefed-up parts made for ultimate strength and durability. Maxx-duty® driveshafts and HD suspension arms, along with upgraded shock towers and outer suspension components, make this is the strongest driveline ever offered in a Slash.
Track-Ready Performance
From races at the local track to backyard bash sessions, Slash 4X4 is Ready-To-Race® right out of the box. Slash’s track-bred chassis features an integrated transponder mount and extended battery tray for optimum weight positioning. Slash gives you the winning edge with a fully adjustable steel-link suspension and tunable oil-filled differentials to put the power down smoothly.
Clipless Body Mounting
Slash 4X4’s tough clipless body holds firm no matter how rough the action gets. Heavy-duty latches grip the body tightly, but release in just seconds to access the chassis. Slash’s hidden latching system replaces time-consuming and inconvenient body clips with large, reinforced panels to resist pull-through damage.
