RE: OFFICIAL RC18MT/B/T THREAD
yea brushless would be nice but I'm having fun just bashing this little thing. I would like a faster motor that I don't have to change the brushes on every 4 runs LOL.

, which is better in your opinion for racing "BACKYARD RACING" a 4600 or a 5700 KV, I was thinking 5700 since it seems to be a good mix of speed and torque[8D]

yea I would get the 5700 because I would bash and race and it would be good and I just got a battery today. It was that one that I posted the 1400mah one

WOW i went to glamis for three days and this thread took off! THe only thing you have to do to mount the rc18b wing is flip the shock towers aroung so there is a spot for the screw and the plasting thing that sticks out, i had to dremel the hole so it would fit, and dremel off a spot on the shock tower so it would go on backwards, And you also have to drill the holes in the wing to mount it. Also 40 wt shock oil is perfect in the 18mt? What is stock? thanx Aaron
EDIT; I just realized that this is my 1212th post, what is ironic is that my birthday is 12/12......go figure, didnt think i would be on here this long.

Haha you can get the rc18b wing for 4 bux, and it looks like carbon firber. Well i just got done bashing at my friends house, did a backflip, and a couple frontflips. A million cartwheels and a couple upside down landings. Man this thing is durabull. Anybody drift with theirs? I bought wheels and some black pipe, going to mount them tonight and see how it does. You can also put electrical tape on the tires and drift on smooth slick surfaces like tile and garages. But they just spin out on pavement or asphalt. But i think the pipe tires will do great! My friend uses it with both his street cars.....

[:'(], IS THAT TRUE or is that not true, PLZ TELL ME IT WILL DO SOMETHING GOOD (besides asthetics), my truck is STILL apart, BUT the stuff is on order, yeah, a race to see who is faster, The Toyz OR Tower
