Default RE: "OFFICIAL"Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

I don't think he would feel insulted about the speed reading cos it is all in the gearing for top end speed. The engine would no doubt get there a lot easier than an rtr I think, but naturally playing with the gearing will be puting a smile on the dial for sure. One of my mates was almost in tears one time after he upgraded his Rex-x Pro to a .24 or something in an attempt to beat me over a long distance circuit. His $300 engine sure blew me away off the line, but my trusty old $150 Force .21 eventually wound up and passed him at about the 60 meter mark, and to this day he still won't change his gearing cos he thinks his engine is what gives him the speed lol. I am not complaining though, I love to give him a drag race and win especially when there is a few people watching, hehehe.
Where the hell is mozzzy? Is he building an F1 engine for his buggy or something?
