Ive got one of these and they are superb!!!!! Very hardy! Ive only just started in nitro cars and this was my first 1/8 buggy! its a superb starter car as the settings straight out of the box are perfect. ive had mine for about a month now and i love it! it just seems to be getting faster and faster. its only got a 1 speed gear box and a .26 engine which means it gets to top end speed very very quick. some people say it lacks abit at top end but thats complete noncense. ive bashed mine hard and i cant break it, read this review( http://www.bigsquidrc.com/reviews/hot_bodies_l2rr.html ) these guys put it through its paces and couldnt break a thing.
All that has gone wrong with mine is my one way bearing broke which ive been told is very rare.
Where is this video you see of it? I havent been able to find a good video of one in action yet.
heres a few pictures of mine(My HotBodies lighning is the purple one).
trust me mate you will love this car!!!!
