Nothing wrong with getting a dog to chase a rc car... if u havent done it man u are missing out... our dog just likes to chase it and nips at the wheels. Deadset compared to walks or playing with other dogs its one of the best forms of exercise....
but...... what is this new truggy? im not seeing any pics???
just don't get ya hopes up..... old rc cars are generally not worth fixing. they are like real cars... u can spend hundreds fixing it and its only ever gonna be worth a fraction of that.
