RE: genesis engine
I have a genesis LE and I run it all the time with my friends. They include two t-maxxes and a SS savage. The genesis almost always is started first even with the pull start, and it never seems to die, once it is broken in and reasonably tuned. Half the time I get my genesis started and then I have to kill it so I can help a friend get theirs started. The engine also is super easy to tune, and the engine is super stable, it will still run hard even when pig rich ( runs crazy hard when to lean), and when it is tuned in it is like a freakin rocket. I am very pleased with the truck, it is hard to get parts for (I have to order them online) and the truck is heavy. But it is definitely fun, I love just driving it through crazy stuff, because it will pretty much go through anything.
