ok first of all im really happy with all the reply's. Thanks for everyones input. and to my loyal violator fans i decided to get one. My lhs can get it for me for 450$ but atleast i wont have to pay 30 bucks an hour when i need labor on it. When u buy the buggy from them u get free labor and tech help. they will even break it in if u want.
You hyper 7 guys need to get with the times. its a great buggy but i wouldnt be surprised to see in the near future the violator becomeing race legal once eveyone starts really buying them. Wider is better
if n e one came direct me to a place with some movies of it please let me know

Search media for violator. I have a few on there. Nothing really good but I will get some good video soon. Save yourself some headache and get a better steering servo for it and if you have the money get a better throttle/brake servo too. I use a hitec hs625 for steering and a JR Z650 for throttle. Just make sure you get a metal gear with 100oz+ of torque and you'll be good. A few more things I would get are:
Extra fuel tubing
One way bearing for the rotostart(this will more than likely go out shortly after break in)
2 - 7.2 Volt batteries for the roto starter and a charger for them(required)
I also have spare parts that commonly break like suspension arms, wing, wing mount, etc. Although none of those have broke yet!
