RE: Kyosho Twin Force
Ultimate had the Spirit version for $279 or so a year ago.. that's the version I'd get! Ha!!
$270 for the regular version, I think I will pass.. I guess I don't have to have it, LOL! So I only buy when things are cheap.. in this case, probably never! Maybe need to have my friend check the Japanese market and have them bring some over.. LOL!

I E-mailed Novak to see If I can use the GTB 7.5R in the twinforce instead of buying the BIG motor that you really shouldnt even need.

RE: Kyosho Twin Force
I'd hate that, buying sumthing then have it be disconntinued, because then parts get hard to find, and the LHS wont carry em, so your looking around at all these 2nd rate kinda sites and ebay looking for parts, some people like doing that, but for me that sucks,

RE: Kyosho Twin Force
Ebay is not the way to go for parts.[:@]
Savage X axels are a direct fit nto the twin force chassis.
Stallard is afraid of this truck...lmao
I kicked butt with it in 2006, when we had a basher's day.
Stallard no hard feelings dude, we had fun Sunday at the big electric race...I was down for the count though..[&:]
I can post here Stallard because I've been banned from rc tech until april 12th I 'll just be hanging out here pal.
Stallard my dad bought it for me before he died.[&o] His last wish to make me a pro driver, I suppose im getting closer everytime
we hit the track together. Time for monster mayhem, and 4wd modifed.
I'll probably mix it up run the twin force one week and the B44 the next week.
At the RCRCR Apreciation day I'll run both together. Monster truck and buggy baby!
electric is the way of the future! taken from aka MS3 chris shelidsmith

RE: Kyosho Twin Force
The parts I ordered at my lhs 2 weeks ago:
Center Universals
Hotbodies Lightning Stadium diffs to handle brushless power
I'm not going lipo right off the bat, maybe later on
Ordering the HV mAXX next month and taking it racing again.
I have raced mine before and those revo's didnt like it in stock form with the 550 kyosho motors
After it's modified they'll be even more scared...........lol
I should have the parts tommorow.
