    It's crazy what you built such a nice vehicle for. I'd hop into building one myself, but i'm pretty new, so i'll stick with RTR for a while.

    Axial .28 has trashed bearings. Going with Boca MX ceramics when they get here. I installed a Toki .27 for now and that thing skoots! Superb top-end, much faster, just a little less bottom end grunt. Better fuel mileage too.

    Yeah it has been hanging on the hook for a month and I just cleaned it up from a snow bash.

    This truggy was bulletproof for me. Blue threadlock all the fasteners and you will not be disappointed. STOUT BASHER

    So can I expect the same bashability out of the electric one? Big Squid gave it a BAD review... Maybe just biased.

    The shock towers are cheese on the E-version. I didn't see anything wrong with the rest of the truggy. The steering bar could use upgrading too. The Kyosho part has held up much better.
