buggies dont need 2 speeds, but ofna has them for their ultra cars and thats all that i know. buggies dont need them because they built for the track already have enough accel and speed, and 2 speeds arent really a great thing if you jump alot.

Sshhhh, Everyone be quiet as I bow down and pay tribute to Grahama89.

I know now that my buggy is sub-standard!!!(Sniffle, Sniffle!! Tears rolling down cheeks and soaking the floor!!!)

Grahama didn't anyone ever tell you that going overboard and making us look bad hurts our feelings...and makes us green with envy?

One word!!! Awesome!!!

Do you leave any doors, or windows unlocked when you leave the house? If so, which ones and what would be a good time to to come by when you're not at home?

Yea but mines still faster. Ive got a SWIFT RTR that only weighs 3lbs. ( I took everything off that added weight- even the diffs) and slapped a direct drive RWD gearbox in it mated to a Zenoah 23CC Gas Motor- and the little bugger clocked at 492MPH! Got ya'll beat so there!
