also would the xxxs be a good start for a top speed car? Have a chance to pick one up... and thinking about going for a speed project.... instead of top speed monster truck. I think it would be easier in a light car...

Horizon Hobbies, tower does not stock any team losi parts at all because it is horizon and tower hobbies only deals with hobbico related stuff.

for all your losi needs there is no better site than www.losipartshouse.com , cheaper than horizon and cheaper and faster shipping, very pleasing buying experience with them too and great customer service.

I 2nd the losipartshouse.com site. They also have a ton of graphite upgrades for the car if you go that route.
I have the xxxs and I think it's a great car if you are not going to run on a groomed surface (sealed belt)
I am running a Novak 4.5r system (18/88 gearing right now, runs very cool - might try gearing up to 20/88) with a TeamOrion 4800 2S LiPo.
Depending on the surface you are running, foams are a requirement to get this car to really stick - the stock tires will wear out in no time with the stock motor. Someone recommended 45 shore rear and 42 shore front so I go a set of NitroShoes and they are running great - still on the first pair.
