Yeah I think bradt369 is right. Truthfully I don't notice too much of a difference (speed wise), But I've been running the buggy hard and the gear seems to be holding up.

I have run into some other road blocks, mainly dealing with suspension. The buggy flat out flies but on the oval track or jumps It's
steering/handling is terrible. I've tried different tires,wheels and a while back had upgraded the steering servo.
However I thing the issue is with the wheel cups/bearings and suspension arms. So I lied to my wife, looks like I'm not done
over-stuffing the credit card. Hey maybe she'll give in and let me get the 1/8th LST2 early?? LOL.
I've also been looking at the Savage as well. A bit cheaper but got great reviews also. Savage X is the one that they featured in one of my RC mags.


Anyway back to work on the buggy. Got to get some time in before Football. Eagles fan here.....
As usual I'll share any Mod success with everyone!!!


Have Fun, Enjoy....!!!
