Never got enough traction for wheelies but I'm getting either another Muggy or an LST2 to replace it as well as possibly building a big savage and I plan to run the 1717 again once the new rotors come out. It would be nice to see them a little cheaper, too. $230 street price is good for what you get but IMO if they could get them out for $180 they would really be the hot ticket.
wow you were that heavy? with the roll cage i am only at 13lbs with the medusa 80mm. just got the losi hardened chassis and it is much stiffer than stock, need to order a motor mount and a battery tray from mike as i just sold them with the Jammin CRT, cant wait to try the 1520 when i have the money. as the medusa gets a little heated after hard running
