Unleash Extreme Power: The Traxxas Maxx V2 at The Thing Shop

When you think monster truck domination, one name sets the standard: Traxxas Maxx. Now with the V2 upgrade, this beast is stronger, faster, and tougher than ever before. The Traxxas Maxx V2 brings a wider stance, bigger tires, and upgraded durability, making it one of the most capable 1/8 scale monster trucks in the RC world. At The Thing Shop, we’re proud to bring the Maxx V2 to RC fans across Atlantic Canada.

What’s New with the Maxx V2?

The original Traxxas Maxx was already a powerhouse, but the V2 takes it to the next level with key improvements:

  • WideMaxx® Stance Standard – A wider wheelbase delivers more stability, better cornering, and control at high speeds.

  • Huge Sledgehammer® Tires – Massive 5.3” tires give the Maxx V2 more grip and ground clearance on any terrain.

  • Tougher Drivetrain – Heavy-duty steel CV driveshafts and reinforced components handle extreme torque.

  • Brutal Brushless Power – Equipped with the Velineon® 4S brushless system, the Maxx V2 blasts past 60+ mph with jaw-dropping acceleration.

  • Waterproof Electronics – Run it through mud, snow, and puddles without missing a beat.

Why Choose the Traxxas Maxx V2?

The Maxx V2 isn’t just bigger—it’s smarter. It’s engineered for hardcore bashing, meaning you can send it off ramps, land massive jumps, and push it to the limit. With Traxxas Stability Management® (TSM), you get precision control even at top speed, making it beginner-friendly while still giving experts the raw power they crave.

Maxx vs. Maxx V2

  • Maxx (Original) – Compact 1/10+ scale monster truck with incredible performance in a smaller footprint.

  • Maxx V2 (Updated 1/8 Scale) – Bigger, wider, and tougher, with upgrades designed for extreme bashers.

If you want the ultimate balance of size, speed, and strength, the Maxx V2 is the truck for you.

From skateparks to dirt tracks, the Maxx V2 thrives anywhere. Its wider stance makes it more stable on rough terrain, while its brushless system delivers unmatched torque for climbing, racing, and high-speed runs. It’s not just an upgrade—it’s a monster truck revolution.
