Monstrous Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 hawkeye, i highly reccomend fitting the front disk brakes, you will find out why when you get yours, the stock brake is sh** the disk brakes bring it to an instant stop with lots of control and no jiggling around underbraking, they are really fun and easy to fit aswell, but you wint find any instructions in the packet, of course but if you need help or anything just add me to msn or PM me Monstrous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monstrous Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 ok dude how much was it? what fuel does it run on,is it exspensive to run how fast? ← ok dazzi, they are about £650 RTR which includes everything apart from unleaded petrol and 2 stroke oil as i said they run on normal unleaded petrol which is sooo much cheaper than nitro speed wise they go about 60mph depending on which engine you have in there Monstrous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt think it was too bad, plus the servos ive gone for wernt just your normal items.
