Nice buggy for on road. My buddy has one of them that he runs nitro for pavement oval racing. Lets just say he found the weak spot in buggy when he had a runaway last weekend...

A relatively slow (20mph) runaway striaght into a curb. Thets when he noticed that there is no front chassis brace on that thing. He bent the chassis to a 30 degree angle right beween the center diff and the front steering stuff. Along with the chassis, the servo tray bent, the front and rear dog bones bent and the bending servo tray also cracked the case on his throttle servo. Still to be determined if the servo will survive. The damage was rather severe for the hit it took. We have had 1/8 buggies curbed there alot harder than that and walk away with much less damage.

It a nice lightweigt buggy, but not didn't appear to be a very tough setup. For the $$$ you really can complain though. Just dont plan to beat it too hard.
