Hey FHM101! What do you mean by R/C Car "panned" the buggy? Is that a good or bad thing? So far, I ran into a few problems with my Avenger. My front pinion diff gear gave out. Then later my rear pinion diff gear gave out when I tried driving the buggy in 2WD mode. However, the clutch bell did not melt like the first Storm did. But the old problem has plagued this buggy as well. Maybe I got the once-in-a-blue moon defect pinion gears. Who knows. I should take it apart sometime and send it in to GS Racing. It is a shame Winter came so quickly and I just recently built my buggy only a couple weeks ago.

I cant really give a good 1st hand review of my Avenger since I didnt get to drive it well enough before the diff pinion gears gave out. However, given the probable 10 minutes I did have with the buggy, it handled like a dream with all settings zeroed out. I ran the Proline Dirty Harry tires. The wing on my Avenger is very very sturdy as well.

Oh how I wish I had more time...
