I owned an orignal madfore kit truck and I loved it!!! the orignal ones had had diff cup problems(the driveshafts would pop out)that was an easy fix,use updated cups.
they would tip easy so I lowered mine a bit.kyosho engines are vary relibale an easy to tune.you dont need big power because the truck is light and a 3speed.
I had a ofna hyper .21 8port in mine and it was the drag race king.
the kruiser has an extended chassis lower cg and handles better than the older versions,all are+s ive own tons of nitro mts and by far it was my fav!!!!
it drives and handles just like the real ones on tv and thats what I loved about it.think about it 3speed chain driven,solid axels whats not to like.Id kill to have my madforce back!!
