Do yourself a favour...the number one upgrade to get is the driven productions gear cover. 12.99 at thetoyz.com and will save you alot of clicky grief.... that is the major downfall of these things. crap getting into the spur. I carry a bag of parts and am almost out of spurs, supplying my buds. I am still on the first spur. we run at a dirt track we built in the trees at a park...

That said, I run my 18B more than any other rc and I have only broken a wing mount. We hit the track 2-3 times a week and it has improved my driving skills (lord knows I needed help there) a ton. I finally beat a driver that has schooled me for many, many years last weekend.

I had an 8000kv motor and hated it. even with the 6800, I have my endpoint set to 90% to make it driveable as going over jumps if you nose down and need to throttle, it would want to backflip at 100%. same with brake is turned down to 85%. our track is fairly tight so it makes for close racing.
