Traxxas Pro Scale Sand Car 8S RC Buggy Electric Brushless 2WD 1/5 Scale RTR

Get ready for the raw power and adrenaline of a full-size Funco Motorsports sand car with the Traxxas Pro Scale Sand Car. This is a 1:1 recreation in X-Series scale, built to deliver the same breathtaking performance and presence. Bigger than the X-Maxx, this beast measures in at a whopping 812mm long and 551mm wide.

The level of detail is staggering. A full interior with driver figures, replica remote-reservoir shocks, and a meticulously crafted "engine" (complete with licensed R2C air filters and a Whipple supercharger) make this car a showstopper. Functional front disc brakes, controlled by a digital servo, provide authentic stopping power. The aggressive, belted paddle tyres, featuring twice the usual number of ribs, guarantee insane grip in the sand.

Powered by the mighty Velineon VXL-8s brushless system, this sand car is capable of exceeding 88 km/h (55+ mph). A reinforced tube frame keeps everything protected, while also allowing for quick body removal with simple latches. The drivetrain is built to withstand brutal punishment, with huge module 1.5 transmission gears, a beefed-up X-Maxx differential, and steel driveshafts. Colour-matched whip lights, standing over 25cm tall, ensure you'll be seen tearing across the dunes.

X-Series Size

Size matters, especially in the desert. The Pro Scale Sand Car, the X-Series' largest member, outscales the X-Maxx® in both length and width. This massive size translates to exceptional scale realism, authentic driving dynamics, and a commanding presence. The Sand Car's large footprint provides stability, allowing you to easily dominate any terrain. 

Scale Detail

Prepare to be amazed by the level of scale detail in the Pro Scale Sand Car. Traxxas has meticulously recreated the Funco GTU Sand Car, featuring a full interior with dashboard and driver figures, and realistic 3.5″ shocks. The engine is a work of art, comprising nine intricately designed parts, including licensed R2C air filters and a Whipple supercharger. This level of detail makes it a true scale masterpiece. 

Disc Brakes

Control is key, especially in the sand. The Pro Scale Sand Car's front disc brakes, paired with rear motor braking, deliver powerful 4-wheel stopping. Scale authenticity is achieved with sheathed cables and drilled stainless steel rotors. A digital 2075 servo and adjustable linkage provide precise braking control, giving you the confidence to tackle any terrain. 

Belted Sand Tyres

The Pro Scale Sand Car's belted paddle tyres are engineered for ultimate sand performance. With twice the standard number of ribs, they provide incredible traction for rapid acceleration. The belted carcass ensures the tyres maintain their shape, delivering maximum forward bite in the sand. It's about unleashing the full potential of your sand car. 

Internal Tube Frame

Durability and convenience are paramount in the Pro Scale Sand Car's design. The internal tube frame provides robust support and protection, while the self-energising latches allow for swift body removal. This design ensures that your sand car is both tough and easy to maintain, giving you more time to enjoy the fun 

of driving. 

8S Power

The Pro Scale Sand Car is equipped with Traxxas' most powerful brushless system, the VXL-8s. This system, featuring the Velineon® VXL-8s™ speed control and 1200XL motor, provides incredible power and responsiveness. No matter your speed, the Sand Car will instantly wheelie, demonstrating its exceptional performance. It's about power that sets a new standard. 

Precise Drivetrain

With over 30 volts of brushless power driving the rear wheels, the Pro Scale Sand Car demands a robust driveline. The massively reinforced case houses huge module 1.5 wide-face transmission gears, ensuring uninterrupted power delivery. A beefed-up X-Maxx differential and steel driveshafts complete the toughest driveline ever found in a Traxxas vehicle. It's about building a driveline that can handle extreme power. 

High Vis Light Whips

The Pro Scale Sand Car's whip lights are designed for both visibility and style. These colourful lights, rising high above the body, ensure you can always see your sand car, even at high speeds. The Flex-Tech™ mounts allow the lights to bend without breaking, adding to their durability. It’s about lights that are as tough as they are stylish.
