Ok, i have had my eyes on the CEN MT2. Its in my price range and it looks like a good truck to get.

It comes with a .16 engine..... i was wondering what the biggest size i could upgrade to.

Also, one more thing, does it come with reverse, the place where im getting it from didn't say. If not is there any some sort of kit i can buy or what do i have to do to get it....????

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

check with the shop you looked at,and ask them if they carry parts for it,you will break parts part of the hobby,then go from there i dunno bout upgrades on the cen been hearing their name alot mostlly from folks like you,new and wanna buy a low buck truck,i dunno anything bout em but a good rule of thumb;ya get what ya pay for,anyone out there have a cen?

i got a cen FF/MT2 i've had it bout 2 weeks once broken in motor runs great i think it' runnin bout 30 to 40 mph bening new thats plenty fast ( for me anyway ) i've had to replace both body mounts both front drive shafts local store had them in stock . the trouble (for me is it is cold here) is the repair time. I WANNA DRIVE IT. all in all it has been a very good truck!! i made some mods to the body , that stoped the body mount problem . dosent look that much like a " MONSTER" any more. but at 9$ a mount it's worth it . feel fre to e-mail me with q&a

the one im getting is at rcmodels.com,
it cost 319 and its the CEN MT 2:
2 speed
.16 engine
and speeds with 45+mph

what would the ff mean on yours???

thanks so far

anyone else have any other idea what i can do???

well with my exp im gonna recomend the rc10gt plus it might be more than the cen,but i like mine! its about 300$ but worth every penny plus they give you a glow charger and fuel bottle and a vidio to get it going

the FF Stands for fun factor thats all it is the same truck. i got mine at a local shop and the owner gave me a glow stick w/ charger ,fuel bottle , wrench and a t-shirt . the guy was very very cool . it will probably go faster when it warms up out side . it is cold here now. i've had a blast driving it so far sans the repairs .

Hey where did you get yours........... and were can i get the CEN MT 2 for under 300........ where im getting it its $319 comes with controler?!?!?!?! please write back with a address where i can get it for less........... also at that page the Savage is 499 .... i went somewhere else and it was only 409.

here ya go

there is an article in rc car action about the truck, I will look for it later. It says it goes 45 but its over geared for off road duty. The 16 is a pretty big small block chassis engine. I think there are 18s though. A 21 would not fit the motor mounts or the space in the truck

you can get the cen mt2 on ebay brand new with starter pack for 280

.21 will fit. We successful drop a .21 into it. You will need .21 motor mount and manitold. Thats it.

Oh and play with the throttle linkage.

No reverse yet beause truck does not have enough spce for the transmission. Its a 1/10 scale.

I would spend that money on a better truck! :stupid: Also you will want a MT that has upgrades to get and CEN is not all that high on the list of having lots of aftermarket parts! Traxxas,Ofna and HPI have the shizznit for your trucking needs!

Hey I the think the CEN is an awesome buy, youre getting alot for the money and if your new to the hobby, the you will appreciate not having to buy all sorts of little hop-ups, because you will already have them and the CEN come with a two speed (not avail on A>E>RC10gt) If you have question about CEN direct them to CEN rep that posted above me he seem pretty knowledgable and can definitely tell you most about CEN. BUt MOst of all buy what you will be happy with not what evreyone tells you too.
