Default Got a CEN MT2

Got it for my birthday got it outa the box and it started on the second pull after prime... and thats when it all began

GOt the engine puring and breaking it at idle.... grabbed the control and attempted to give it a bit of throttle... nothing.. ended up throttle servo was bad... so i went to local hobby shop where it was purchased and they replaced it for free... ok kool i thought

got it home fired it back up noticed chared black and shiny peices of metal coming out of the exhaust.... whoopie .... shutit down and picked it up and a crap load of oil and unburned nitro spilled all over my pants from the pipe.... hooray...

cleaned it all off went back out kinda mad ,let the 3rd total tank of gas run through it no more metal or nothing .. ok good... test the steering and brakes... brakes dont work at all.... servo doesnt even come close to having enough power... yay..... endless tweeking and still nothing run another tank through it and it notive hey its running really frekin hot and its smokeing alot .... richend it to compensate in the middle of the tank....

refueled and took it to driveway radio was malfunctioning( like not working hardly at all unless when i was like 1 foot away from the car) right when it started working sorta again the engine started smoking ( oil was littlerally dripping out of the exhaust so i know it was rich enough mix)and the steering servo stripped on like the second turn the car made....... well great... took it back to the LHS where my parents got it for me and they said sorry sense you turned it one we cant take it back or anything ... omg!! nothing works on it and im stuck..

called cen they were amazed that so much went wrong but i think they didnt beleive me.... i droped it off at cen which was about 10 feet from my house haha i took a look at the genisis which was sitting on the table right next to me and they told me thyd call me in 1-2 days....

i called em today and they hadent even looked at it yet.. im kinda upset about this.. i hope they replace the entire car .. i dont really wanna see that same thing again .... ever again ....

i hopen i get news tommarow morning/afternoon.....i was really anxious to start driving a monster truck but i dont have good luck these days.. :-/ eh well sorry i had to let some one know
