I like it alot. Its actually much better than I expected. XTM is not exactly known for high quality, but so far Im impressed. The drivetrain on it seems reaaly solid. I don't think I will have nay issues with it.

It handles really nicely. Nice and stable. Its realatively low to the ground, but still has enough clearance to handle the rougher terain. Acceleration is really good. More power thant the wheels can hold traction wise. I might look at getting some deeper tread tires for better traction in grass. The tires on it now are more designed for the track and in the grass it was just spinning all 4 wheels if I didn't roll on the throttle nice and smooth

I actually cant wait to get this 2 speed pinion finshed now. It had some really good top end even with only 1 speed. Its gonna reallly fly once I get the 2 speed sorted out. Its very stable at full speed now so hopefully it will handle the higher top end with no problems.

I really think the key to making it handle so well was the LST shocks in the rear. They do a really nice job. And with a buggy this size the smaller shocks even look like they are to small.
