Its okay... there isn't much travel on the suspension but the car is built pretty solid. There is so much torque and weight that the clutch bells keep stripping. I get the steel ones and after a few runs they strip. I'm about ready to sell the truck...
Speed is decent, I think the HPI and T maxx blow it away.

You sure your gear mess is correct. I had one of these trucks and you said it right they are durable with the exception of the body post. I didn't want to sell mine but something had to go at the time and I was helping a friend get into the MT side of RC. Anyway I never had a problem with stripping bells with that engine. I would check that again and see if it's mess or something else. And you mentioned the Tmaxx and Savage blow it away. Well if you in the market for a new engine remember you can use a box with the quake that means the skys the limit when it comes to off road engines. You will have to play with the suspension the stock shocks suck but I beat on that truck like hell and it kept ticking. I sold it for 150 with remote and hitec 645 servo think he got a good deal? It's a nice truck. My 2cents.
