The stock transmission does include Ball Bearings

Papa Smurf- you might want to look for the GPM or the Team Losi Turnbuckles

I think that both 3-racing and GPM make threaded shocks for the Mini T. I would personally pick the 3-racing because they are built better and they don't leak.

I got mine from ebay a long time ago. I am not sure. Check BRP's website. They may still have them.

if your going to race invest in good shocks. proper suspension is the key to saying on the track and not in the air doing flips, tires are also important.

Frozen- I plan on getting the MIP Diff and i might put my extra Quantum Comp 2 that is not being used in my xxx cr in and make a brushed racer.

RCU- The motor will fit if you get an optional motor plate that will accomidate 300 sized motors. It is only $10 and in my opinion well worth it.

Gearhead- i was planning on getting the Losi Shocks becasue i have them on my Mini T buggy and i love them. If you have any other shock ideas i could try then please let me know.

Nice Truck. $130 is not alot of money for that truck considering the $50 carbon fiber chassis, the aluminum wheels and all the other aluminum on the truck. Keep up the good work.

top speed stock? Hmmm with 4 aa's? Like 10 maybe. You definatley need to get a battery to make it wake up. I would say the baja motor or the reedy would make you happy after a few nessessary upgrades like bearings, oil shocks, ball diff (no nessessary if staying brushed though). I would invest ina chassis brace too. Heck if you have a radio and rx already you might consider the mini-t pro instead. It has all the goodies already.

Yea it is very slow out of the box but thats good because then you can drive it in the house.

Does anybody have any experience with the Cobalt 18 14T? I want a good brushed motor for racing and i need POWER. I will be running bit with a quantum comp 2 so i don't have to worry about a motor limit. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"all things seem difficult....at first"
I know this has been asked before I am sure but I need help. I have the Mini LST2 and was needing to know what battery packs out there would be a good choice for more speed and run times. As of now I have the standard 1100 packs. Any help to this newbie would be great. [8D]

Are you talking about the one for a Mini or the one for a larger scale? I am talking about the one for a larger scale car.
