The Nitro Rustler delivers Ready-To-Race® performance right out of the box. Power comes from the TRX® 2.5 Racing Engine, a serious performance
machine that RC Nitro Magazine heralded as the most powerful smallblock engine they have ever tested.* Nitro Rustler is 50mph of intoxicating speed;
explosive wheels-up acceleration; and intense driving excitement. The rigid 6061-T6 aluminum chassis and reliable drivetrain are built tough to handle
the additional horsepower and keep maintenance to a minimum. Nitro Rustler is hard-charging action for the power-hungry enthusiast.
Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan
Only Traxxas has you covered with our exclusive Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan,
the easiest way to either maintain or upgrade the performance in your model.
Engines wear over time and need to be rebuilt with new parts. With the
Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan, you can have a brand-new,
factory-fresh engine right away by simply exchanging your worn
engine at your local hobby store. It’s less expensive than
rebuilding the engine yourself and you get the peace of mind
knowing your engine is brand new and ready to deliver the
power you expect.
Right from the start, Traxxas engineers dedicated the TRX 2.5 Racing Engine for nothing less than ultimate
performance. It’s loaded with advanced engine design features such as free-owing rear exhaust, the unique
composite slide carburetor, and innovative porting that produces incredible power output. State-of-the-art
manufacturing facilities allow us to produce the TRX 2.5 to the absolute highest quality standards. Since the TRX 2.5 Racing Engine is manufactured
solely by Traxxas, instead of being purchased from an outside supplier and re-branded, the TRX 2.5 is backed by superior Traxxas
know-how, unmatched customer support and the exclusive Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan.
