I checked for the wheels and tires and didn't see them. Did I miss them? Do you have a part number for them?

I have been looking at getting one of these but would like more info first. I already have Emamba Truggy and have found the Dog Bones, drive shaft, and stub axle's to be very weak.
Has Himoto addressed this problem. Also the exposed spur gear gets chewed up rather quickly. Does the new buggy have a sealed spur gear?
Thanks for any info you can give.

PS any reviews of the new buggy?

No reviews yet but these are nothing like the older ones, much thicker dogbones, sealed gears. Its an all around better RC.

Hey bro, your order is processed and will ship on monday, its night and day between the old style and this one, much beefier setup, even the center driveshaft is much better.

Right On! Will be able to play with it next weekend! I put a VXL system in my old one and needless to say it tore itself apart. Will this next gen handle brushless better?
Oh do they come with bearings? At least the old ones did.
Thanks,

They will definately handle a brushless system without any problems. These are completely different from the old ones and better in almost every way possible. Yes, they do come with bearings. Hope you have fun with your new buggy, I'm thinking of getting one! [8D]

I was just looking at one of these. Looks like a fun toy. This may seem like a silly question but, what is the approximate top speed of this buggy in stock form? I didn't see it listed on the website.
