Yup, that's my car and me driving it(I'm the one telling another guy what it cost to get his own, and now he's got TWO). That jump was about 20ft, with a 4ft run up. The nitro guys tried for DAYS to make that jump; only one came close, and he's a sponsored driver!

The Mugen is a GREAT truggy, and should make an excellent conversion. I would suggest you stay away from Novak and Xcelerin 8th scale systems, we had bad luck with them. The Castle systems, on the other hand have been nothing but awesome!

I'm not trying to steer people away from nitro, just towards a BL conversion. I've seen my fair share of people just get tired of dealing with it and give up on racing. If the BL systems of today, were available a year or two ago, I KNOW at least 3 guys that would still be racing.
