Status: offline 		Rock crawlers dont go fast- hence the name 'crawler.' The Twin force is fun truck to crawl stock, just lock the diffs. You can give it 4-link suspension for not much money, but it's a lot of work. (You have to build the links, and make a link mount for the axle.) When you have more cash to spend, the Twin has very desirable components for a great crawler.
