Supposedly parts support will be very good as soon as the parts come in stock. Already I have special ordered ~$90 worth of parts for this buggy, but of course am hoping that they won't be needed.

Judging by feel, these parts should hold up very well. But I too am curious about the durability of the front suspension!

I like innovation, and that is something this buggy is definitely not lacking. This buggy will become a track-only vehicle, as bashing will obviously wear out parts. Maintenance is not something I'm fond of . But this way my Hyper 8 can be moved over to bashing duties!
