Can anybody give me some insight into this truggy? I found it on nitrorcx and decided to do some searching over here but have had no luck. For the price it's hard to turn down but, I would like to know if there are any issues that I need to be aware of. Also, what kind of speeds is this thing pushin' and can I expect it to run like the one in their video or does that one have something done to it? It says that the video was taken right after they pulled it out of the box. But I have a hard time believing that they would post a video like that when the motor has not even been broken in.
Thanks guys..

I could be wrong but i think the Truggy in the video is a redcat monsoon. You can use the monsoon parts if you break the exceed. And I think you are right the price is hard to beat. I would look into getting a better radio but, if your just going to bash with it, the stock one should work fine.

Harryball: you are right in my opinion too. The searching I did yesterday, I found that the video they have on their site is actually the monsoon. Also, I called their number and it does not work. Another thing, I e-mailed them and have had no response. So this has lead me to changing my mind to the monsoon. Eventhough it is 100 bones more, it has a bigger motor and redcat is actually here in Phoenix only about 15 minutes from me so that is the way I am gonna go. As for the radio, I trash all stock systems anyways as I have had bad luck with a couple of 'em. I will be putting my spektrum in it.
Thanks guys.
