It was the best during its time especially when Lipo is not yet the mainstream. It sits the truck so high making it prone to rollovers.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice but with another chassis like the gorillamaxx , the rest of parts (UE suspension, GEnIV servo saver, other UE doodads) can be added making it as nice while lowering the center of gravity making it less prone to rollovers which turns to faster cornering speeds.

Matt, you can't lower the center of gravity of the lightning as low as the gorillamaxx chassis. The lightning CoG is still as high as the chassis itself .

It might be low compared to the thunder but not to a gmaxx chassis.







With my suspension setup this low, it doesn't scrpe the green of of our golf course.
