The Pirate 10 is 4WD. Theres just been a review of it in one of the mags and it said that it is one of the best 1:10 buggies on the market. I got it after reading a few reviews and expected it to by quite good. I got it out the box and it looked great. Virtualy all the framework is anoized metal, its 4WD, got a hyper 12 pull start engine, the shocks are realy adjustable. I put the wheels on and took it out. I ran it in and I couldn't believe the power that the little engine was giving out. The acceleration was great, i'm not sure the actual sped that its suposed to go but i recon that it was at least going 40mph. The only reason that i am thinking about the engine upgrade is for in the future when the stock engine is worn out, or for a bit more speed fr racing.

Oh by the way you said you are from england, do you know anywhere that i can race it. Everywhere seems to only let electrics race
