Default Monster beetle first run

hi all, Ive just raced my brand new Zenoha G260 04 powered monster beetle for the first time this morning. IT ROCKS!!!

Easily held its own against the leopards speed wise, but i cant control it yet (as Daz will testify, Nice shell but the way) it is very very different driving to a marder. Real tricky keeping the front wheels on the ground at over half throttle but it will be a very very fast car when run in properly and tuned.

Still got the old shell on at the mo but the new ones comming.

see ya
Col.

Dial up sucks!

Thanks col for saying you liked my shell.

That MB really does hold it own agains the leopards , Hormans and other marders etc... in speed wise.

Oh btw, kiora, you have defentally made me think about getting an MB...but ill think i wait a bit and brake the Mrader first. One FG is enough for the time being.
Perhaps ill put the Monster wheels on my marder.

save your money and buy just the wheels and maybe a shell. oh yeah a G260 engine should get all for about £300 with a little help from e bay.

kiora it sure is fun, when i first got my mb working it was doing dounuts for a laugh and spent more time on back wheels than front

i think once u break the engine in and get used to the character of driving an fg monster u quickly learn how it responds and get the hang of it


enjoy
peace
