Ok,seeing that the duratrax firhammer and smartech traveller the same apart from different bodies and engines?Or are they 2 completely different cars?Since i can get the traveller for very cheap but wondering if i can change the body and wheels later on to soemthing like mt /truggy style,such as putting firhammer wheels and body on it?
Also the smartech comes with a zenoah 23cc!?

It is the exact same parts for both buggies.......FG parts work on both buggies too ....but some FG parts dont fit

Same bodies

I would want a buggy that looks good,something like the baja.For some reason i dont really like the looks of the smartech traveller,if it looked like the baja 5b i would jump on it.
As long as it is not to bi,and has ok handling i am satisfied.
What is the duratrax firehammer MT a clown of? What engine does it have stock?
And what FG car is the traveller a clown of?What engine does it have in it stock?
The smartech traveller is nice and cheap,but i really dont like the look of the body and tires?Is their and other different shaped bodies for it later one?
Hey! Check out the new Thunder Bolt from Smartech, maybe this is the one ur looking for...

Yeh thats very nice i think hellya has one,though i dont think its a clone of anything so parts would be hard and it may be abit expensive sicne it s new...
Also i just realised i wa sgetting confues between the firhammer and traveller since i though the only durtrax firehammer was the mt verion,and you guys were saying the mt and traveller is the same,but now i realise there is a mt and buiggy version of the firehammer...
