Default Santa Came

today I woke up to see my truck had the Sphere/Neo combo in it a new kevlar spur and pinion. I also got some tools and some realy fine point pliers for those E-clips I drove the truck today and im stoked on the preformance. The jumps I had on my track were too small now so some friends came over and we started to make the track bigger were not finnished but when we are ill try to post some pics and maby a video. I would recomend the Sphere/Neo combo its great so far.

Thats one heck of a present. I didn't get anything like that, but I did get a new Craftsman workbench for all my RC stuff.

Ya, the dang thing sure is clean, it's only touched dirt once for about 5mins. and i already stripped the spur. I jus got it and i've already put 6+hrs of work into it. It's gonna be sucha relief when all my new stuff comes in and it actually runs.

Wow uhh....unless he's got some money, he won't beat you. He should get an evader pro, xxx-t, or buggy if he's just driving and jumping around the track

Well, with 3 hundred you can't beat him, but you can go around 40mph. Do you have any friends with buggies or trucks that you could drive and see which one you like? I've driven both, and for a beginner a stadium truck is easier to drive.

Get a T4, then when you can afford it, put a Neo/Sphere in it.

yes, the p2k2 is pretty good, and i also second the xxx-t, but it might be out of your price range if you want to make it go fast.
