I've wanted one of those for a long time. There was a guy where I use to live that built his own and sold them. Only sold them for like $200-$300. The things were so fast it was unbelieveable

The Traxxas buggy is bigger~

Cool tho man~ looks fun.
I have an Associated RC10GT stadium truck w/ a .15
and a duratrax streetforce w/ a .18~ few upgrades to it, i got it clocked at 58mph~
I have a vid of her too~ (yes, it has a red civic body on it >:D) and it's 4wd~


Heres the vid: (listen for the 2 speed transmittion shifting (automatic))
took a bit for the engine to get warmed up before it would shift~ (shifts at middle/end of vid)

you should lower that 2nd gear shift point :-\
i bet if u fix it.. ittl go alot faster.. your cars shifting into second wayyyy too late.. that gonna damage the engine.
