I don't have one but the people that do have mostly all good things to say about them. From what I gather they handle well enough to be competetive but are geared more towards top end. A plus is of course that they go as fast as they do. In 6 months to a year when you outgrow the stock .18 an OS or Epic .18 will REALLY make it fly. That 18 is nice as far as stock engines go, but those two have lots more RPMs and torque on the bottom as well which also equals more on the top-end, if that's what you're into.

The only hopups as of now are made by XTM, but the aluminum is definitely tough. Don't upgrade until things break, take it easy at first until you are comfortable. With the speed comes the distance needed to brake effectively. Most early broken parts (for first time drivers) are from too much speed and a non-moving object.

I am sure you will enjoy it.
