yeah but by that they probably mean that they will order a part if you come in and ask for it and it will take like a week to get in...i looked at some actual pics of that truck and it doesnt look that great, looks like its a 1/8 scale and only has 4 shocks but iv never herd of it and i cant really tell you much about it so good luck with it.. never seen a three speed tranny like that before, keep us posted on how it runs

The Enslave is a Mad Force copy, like Muttly was saying. If it's anything like a real MF then it's a very very fun truck... but parts are hard to come by for the real one, I can only imagine what it's like for that one.

Not many people know much about the Kyosho solid axle monsters, but they are good trucks. How can you not like a 1:8 MT that has a big block engine, three speed transmission, 6.5" tires, and it still only weighs as much as a Revo 2.5? Even with the little weak Kyosho .21 the Mad Force will ride wheelies forever, so this .28 Enslave is probably fast.
