RE: New and immproved genesis vidz
much better videos I think the first video that was posted on rcu were clips of those 3 videos. I think that truck needs a wheelie bar

I think they need to let the driver show us what it can do! The 2nd video was the only one where they opened it up a little. Overall it looked like the suspension was too stiff & sounded like it was geared way low but he still needed reverse to get the front wheels up. I'm not as impressed as I thought I would be. Techno & monster trucks... [:-]

Man I was hoping it could pull it off with ease. I guess it wont happen for a while. Even the GENNY has trouble on uphill climbing... So does every other truck...

i dont like it atall. it doesnt have any bottom end and it still even with a .46 had the reverse then forward to wheelie. even if i won the lottery i wouldnt buy it.

RE: New and immproved genesis vidz
The low end is seriously lacking on that truck. Especially for a .46. It makes sense though. Its geared for top end. Seeing as how they claim it goes over 50, and everybody knows the .46's and larger dont have the RPM's to do that. Regardless, i really like big trucks. The suspension is no biggy, that can be tuned. We hope anyway. If it uses 8th scale shocks, then we can easily find softer springs, then dial in the suspension. It sure looks big though. Its not a truck i'll be pre purchasing. I'll have to get my hands on one and check it out first.

RE: New and immproved genesis vidz
When I first heard about the Genesis, I was like YEAH! I AM GOING TO BUY THAT THING THE FIRST DAY IT COMES OUT!. After I was told the specs and such, I was a little disappointed. Now that I have seen the movies, I am starting to dislike it. [:@]
