The Lightning is a decent car I have seen three run at my local track the only thing that has broke is the wing on all three it dose need a better servo for stering if you look at one a lot of the parts look just like Kyosho parts the same guy that designed Kyosho mp 5 mp 6 designed the lightning also the motor dose not have a lot of power 1.8 HP I think but thats not to big a deal most guys that race cant use all the power of the OSs and RBs motor any way I would rather have this car than the Ofna LX there is another site that has more info at radiocontrolzone.com serch for lightning its 2 or 3 pages long
