INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Traxxas Slash. The Traxxas Slash Short-
Course Race Truck puts you in the driver's seat for intense fender-
to-fender, high-flying off-road action. The full-scale Short-Course
Race Trucks embody the spirit of Traxxas R/C with their extreme
800+ horsepower racing engines; full-throttle, dirt-roosting power
slides; giant suspension travel; and Supercross-style big-air jumps.
The Traxxas Slash brings all the action home so you can experience
the high-speed head-to-head competition at the track or in your
own backyard. The Slash was inspired by full-scale rear-wheel drive
trucks purpose built to fly over jumps and rip full-throttle through
the turns. The Traxxas Slash hangs it out for an all new way to
challenge your driving skills. The 4-wheel independent suspension
has been carefully tuned to replicate the full-scale driving and
handling experience as closely as possible. The scale appearing
tires provide just the right amount of bite and thick, blinding
clouds of dirt roost.
We know you're excited about getting your new model on
the road, but it's very important that you take some time to
