I am very interested in this truck
I have read the review and is very inpress with it's construction
I have a GST 7.7 and really love it
Now I wants to have the next truck with the same durability in mind

2 wheel drive will be a challege for me when I am bashing, but I guess speed should be also my priority for now
I don't see much talkabout in this forum
I hope someone can shed some light for me

Please advice
Thanks in advance!

bought one and the same weekend hit a jump that took it about 15 - 18 foot in the air it flipped landed and it still drove back to me with minor damage all it needed was 2 front wheel bolts that i got from B&Q ive added a second rollcage on the rear and it realy does protect your body mount posts.



THIS is a great truck and its quick aswell i put my satnav on it and it did 52.6mph but had more in it

hope this helps

Does it fair well on the tracks?
A couple of friends own 2wd stadium trucks
But I want something different
Any possibilities on setting tune up?

Thanks!

never had mine on a proper rc track yet but had it round a bmx track it it is unreal what it will do.
it is quite hard to control but once you get used to it there wont be much that`ll catch you.
on the road i took it up to a speed of 48.7 mph and it wasnt flatout.
its a good allround truck

Nice truck!
Did you do the Roll Bar yourself?
What are the parts list you think I should get in case I damage it
No LHS have this product line in Singapore
Have to stock up my parts like I did for my Cen GST 7.7
Please advice

yeah built the rear bar myself cos i was sick of buying body posts the rear ones are in a bit of a silly place.
as for a list of what you could need ive had to buy;

bolts to go in the wheels (they bend quite easy)
body posts (silly place on the top of the shell)
front wishbones (some idiot switched on his radio gear and i lost control)
front shockers (as above)
tyre glue (they tend to split back tyres off rims)
and if you buy RTR check ALL the "nuts and bolts" ive had loads of things come loose

nothing too big or hard to change just silly things

if ur interested im thinking of starting to make carbon fibre body shells but im just looking into it, trying to find out who would be interested. they will be changes quite abit from standard (arches, spoiler, bigger front and rear end) let me know

You have to buy one of these i now have put on high speed gears, ball raced steering, wheelie bar, dirt bonz tyres and tuned pipe if u want to make it quick do this but it does wheelie on wet tarmac now so as you can guess its a bit of a monster. by far its the best truck i own
