Default New Wheels!!!

Thanks to Ebay! The Rims are OFNA 5 spokes wrapped in Crime Fighters. When i got the rims they were white, thanks to the internet [link]http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3825/is_199907/ai_n8867845[/link] and Rit Dye they are now black. Same with the wing.

Yea i really like my XT2, purely impressed with the power and acceleration and handling. I do believe a new body is in order though.

Absolutely! The XT2's body isn't very appealing at all. Call me old fashioned, but I like more traditional bodies on buggies.

Yea the XT2 body is quite weird, but i think its different and when this thing is moving it looks mean.

OK I just ran my XT2 for the first weekend. I do know that the 24.7 is strong but i pulled it out without running it and is a zip lock bag. I dropped a Noverossi RX21 P5X and of course the motor rips but i got to say the buggy rips and handles great... I have 2 original xterminators and this thing handles WAY better. I took it to the track and was handling right along with all the others out there, and I did nothing to it but the motor. So i just got to say I love it so far and out of running the buggy for 3 days straight of hard running i had nothing get loose on me or brake. So if anyone is looking for a nice ride i suggest it.
