haha that sucks. i plan on racing thats why the 2nd kit idea interest me but what if i break the same part over and over. i've had my turmoil for 2 months and havent broke anything so thats a good sign. the only thing im really thinking might break from racing is shocks. i need to get an extra set

Ive been running mine since last aug and have only broke one piece. There a really tough buggy and can handle almost anything you throw at them

youwish16

Ran my turmoil pro saturday at a local track. It did pretty well until about the end of the day. Broke a steering knuckle.

Went to another track on sunday, got a new steering knuckle,
While changing the part, I noticed one of my CVD cups was cracked. I had one already break the weekend before. Luckily I had spares of those.

installed everything and ran about 5 minutes and the SOB steering knuckle broke again. lol



It's time for some minor changes...

So I quietly put my car back in the pits and went into the shop there and came back out with a new ride.

out with the old and in with the new!!
I just got done putting some color on the new body.
Also got me some other goodies to go along with it.

So once it's time to put the Turmoil to sleep for ever, what are you guys thinking of replacing it with? RC8, 8ight, or something else? Just curious as to where I should focus my attention on to...

youwish16

probably rc8. i had my eye one it before i even bought my turmoil

that track has alot of long straights.

I hate to think about not racing my Turmiol but, I will most likely go back to Ofna next year with the Hyper 9.

Jamie22

My Feedback: (3)

Nah not really just one

youwish16

yea that hyper 9 looks really nice. i might get one of those, or maybe the 808 or the odonnell one. damn so many choices!! lol

I like the turmoil buggy. I'm going to keep my turmoil for awhile because Horizon will still carry parts for awhile. They still have parts for the mayhem buggy and I haven't ran that buggy for sometime. What tires do you guys run?

Jamie22

My Feedback: (3)

I run bowties and crimefighters

It is to bad that Sportwerks is a dieing brand. We sold of My Mayhem ST this spring basicly got dick out of for what I had into it. KP extended Chassis Kit. Sold as a RTR got about $250 out of it. Had well over $600 in hopups and parts that went with it. So I decided that I will just keep my Mayhem Buggy and let new comers to the track have some fun with it to draw interest. If I am not going to get anything out of it selling I might as well possibly draw in some new racers to our home track. I have enough spare parts for it that I should be able to keep it going for some time. When out of parts I guess I will just throw it out. :-(

I have since upgraded to All Mugens MBX5R and MBX5T. Huge difference. They rock. Now if the weather would start cooperating I would love to actually have a chance to race them.

Hi all. Just to up date. I ran round 3 of the GA Pro Series and finished 5th in the A main. I am now currently 4th in points for the year.
So anyone that questions this buggies ability on the track, here is your proof. This buggy can win on any day on any track aganist any buggy. I love this car.

volkankilicoglu

i bought the turmoil to race against ofna and kyosho buggies on my local track. most are rtr cars. i think i will be succesful there...

What glow plug is everyone using in the Sportwerks .21 engine? I finally got my buggy running and have the break in almost done. I would like to get a couple spares to take with me to the races.

After getting annoyed about the Turmoil being discontinued right after I broke the a-arm in just 15 minutes, I moved the new Sirio engine and electronics back into my Kyosho US Sports buggy. I ran it around the yard a few times before I remembered why I switched in the first place.

So I replaced the a-arm after boiling the new one and headed to the track. I got about 45 minutes of racing in without anything breaking, which is amazing considering how bad I am! At the very end while trying to burn up the remaining fuel in the tank, I took a small bump and noticed the right rear wheel was hanging funny. I thought I had broken another arm and was a bit ticked. I looked everything over and noticed the problem was that the screw came out of the upper arm where it connects to the rear shock tower. I had forgotten to loc-tite it after removing it during the previous repair!

In any case, I'm pretty happy with the Turmoil over-all. I figure I'll run it through the end of the year and then decide on a replacement.

youwish16

yea im hanging on to mine for now. i bought a complete front end and rear end off ebay so i'll i really dont have replacements for are the radio tray and the center diff. i have everything else

I am definately keeping my turmoil as a backup. Or I can let my friends drive it.
I also have a lot of spares saved up for it.
I like my turmoil, but think i'm going to love my rc8.

My Feedback: (3)

Yea thats whats I'll more than likely be switching to at the end of the year
