I like the spoke wheels, but if you're a big jumper like me, dish is probably the way to go.

gotta love that peral white lid...BARF!

the first thing i did was get a clear lid for it. i'm not big on white as a color.


you'll have a blast with it man. glad to see you got the buggy.

Now, I ran it for maiden voyage at midnight.. seems fast enough on 2s math says its doing 30 or so... , i know 3s is gonna scream. 4s might be ridiclous. :) the Novak 5.5HV and MMP should be ok until i can pick up a Tork motor and HW ESC or maybe just an HW combo...

but this morning, when i could see the chassis, i noticed diff fluid from center diff is leaking... spun all over the inside of the chassis and body... spur is soaked... need to see what thats about... i never opened it.. it looked too shiney out of the box. but i forgot to investigate...

Definitely opt for the Tork motor if you can. Quality is always preferred. Should run nicely with the MMP in this buggy.

More than likely the oil slung is because of a loose screw or poorly seated gasket on the diff cup. Check there and make sure to top off the fluid while you're at it.

my diff was fine, but i agree with nitro. it's easily fixed.


as far as the motor, i have a neu that i was gonna ebay...u want it? i bought a combo because i desperately needed an esc on a raceday and forgot to bring a backup. it's brand new.

gimme a figure.. I want it.

it's 42.00 because it's overseas express shipping. it'll be there in 3 days. they are expensive, but will be the last set of onroad tires you'll ever need.

I'll order them after the 1st.. b compound right??

and these "Parada" caliber knock offs.. work pretty damn good man.. i think they are better than the racing spike/crimefighters that i used before.. atleast they seem to be better than i recall the others being.. i havent ran any of them in forever.. but these are wearing good, and bite even on my smooth capped street that none of my other tires get traction on at all..
