Well after a few runs with a broken in Epic .18 motor, I found out this motor is the one to go with, It might be a bear to break in, But once your there. its very easy to tune and starts in about 2-3 pulls, Plus it is insanely fast, But the truck has been controlable. Ive noticed my track has gotten really small. Now Ive got to upgrade the steering linkage because its constantly getting loose besides I want some more metal. So those parts are in the mail. Next parts will be the bulkhead and A-arms, Which are going to have to wait for the moment for I need a new motor, For a larger truck like my transportation....yikes
