update:
BUYERS REMORSE IS GONE!
i borrowed my friends ramp.. and this thing went atleast 10 feet in the air ON FIRST GEAR. 2nd gear hasnt even been tuned yet!
this thing is the shizznut.. im gonna run it rich for 2 more tanks just to be on the safe side with break in..
im still getting used to the controls cause it cant pull off sharp turns like the xterminator..
im already thinking about upgrading to quad steering
damn.. this thing hauls *** and its not even tuned yet..
i wonder if i could fit two motors on it.. i wouldnt know how to go about that.. but that would kick ***..

I've thought of it. I saw in person a guy make his own water-cooled motor. Runs no cooling head and only runs bout 140*F on the stock .15 Traxxas T-Maxx motor (older ones not new 2.5s or whatever). Had a radiator, water jacket, and seperate small 75cc (I believe) gas tank for the water. Pretty inventive and worked/ran flawlessly.
1/8th scale buggies are cool, but expensive. Saw one running with us on the track and they are AWD and hook like none other and fly. Fastest accelerating R/C of the groups that I have driven or seen in person. They are QUITE the racing R/C machine.
I haven't run mine and need a stock carb. Not to mention I like to ride in the things I make go fast. That's my hobby now that I can drive.
