Personally i dont think thaat video shows very much, and definately not an 8.2hp motor. Just looks like a baja on a dusty surface. ould be any motor for all we know. Im not saying its not this motor, but this video just doesnt show anything

Dont see the point in that much power in a 2wd, You'd never get any traction.

Belive it or not, There is a point where too much power is worthless

Not really. In fact its a bit pointless having all that power depending where it is in the rev range.

All good to have balls out power at bottom end but itll have no top end. And vice versa.

Also abit pointless having it in most 2WD ars as you end up spinning most of it away anyway

ive had a go of the 7.5 long rod and found it to much. you cant get over half throttle without it lighting up the rears an spinning out.
just found it annoying rather than fun.
i can see it being better in 4wd thought.
that vid isnt a good promo it just looks out of control

so about £380 ish before postage, which will be about £40 ish and then the risk of customs charges , id still buy one though for the redcat just to watch it desintergrate as it powers off lol haha ,i think sonic has something to do with importing them prob completley wrong with that though lol
