Find your self the Exotek kit before you do anything else. Or mod the chassis for a 1/10 servo. You will soon learn how crappy the stockers are. Also get the MLST2 diffs and throw them in there, the stockers will strip out prematurely. Then from there I would upgrade the driveshafts and such as the stocks are like butter.

Yup they really suck out of the box --- exotec kit, servo conversion, DD Slipper, MLST2 diffs, Novak Mongoose brushless, lipo, and wide track kit.

What are you looking to do with it Rob ? I ran the Insane Motors on 2s Lipo and it was pretty quick. Enough to have a good time with it. I raced mine on the local indoor dirt track a couple times. Here was mine-

Basically what you did with yours, going to race carpet stadium this winter with it. I ran one with the insane motor set and lipo, and it ran nice. Is that the crowd pleazer for the 18t on it?

Its not on their website anymore then. Wow, I had one on mine when I had one -- that's odd. I wonder if Tower or some other olhs has one. Wow, it otook me a while to kill mine -- but I think you find the viscous diffs will work out much better, just make sure and pack them full of heavy diffgrease.

Wow that is a sweet body. Thanks for the link on the gears too, that's a lot easier to swallow.
