If you haven't got anything yet you need the truck, I got a buggy not knowing anything about nitro and as you know here In Tennessee you need something with clearance so I converted my buggy into a Truggy a Tsunami which did cost more then the Tsunami it's self but thats in part of the aluminum upgrades I added, but you need to get the truck for what your wanting

A Duratrax Overdrive ST. Its has aluminum fronts, two bodys , and an assortment of other parts. Just replaced heatsink, head gasket, and head button. Carb leaks a little, the spur gear is stripped, and its missing a drive cup, but will replace or fix EVERYTHING that has problems.

Its a good little truck and I never ran it hard. It just needs a more experienced handler plus its a stadium truck so its not the best for these parts!

heyy i got a problem. i turn on the switch on the truck and nothing happens. batteries are brand new. i think it could have something to do with when i ran it in a half a foot of fresh snow haha? well i dried everything off, took the electronics apart dried em out and put em back together, nothing. the truck is just dead. any thoughts on what could be wrong and hot to fix it?
