I can't wait to drive this thing. I have never driven a dual engine truck before not to mention 3-speed with dual .26s. Kyosho parts can be hard to come by, so I don't plan on getting carried away with it, but I will run it and get some good video when I do. I am foaming at the mouth here. $238 bucks like new and all it needs is a pull start, receiver and rx pack! It even comes with all needed servos. The kit new is $500 + servos $100 = $600.

Cool!

How in the heck do you keep coming up with those deals? I had to pay almost that much for my Mad Force without radio gear...

Anyway... nice. Kyosho MT's are neat trucks.

Oi... Part availability looks a little scary. I will have to be creative for replacement parts. If one of the pull starts is out, that is going to be fun finding a replacement. I also can't find anywhere what size the wheel hexes are. Sounds like a proprietery hex, 19mm if I read that right.

Kyosho was a lot easier to get parts for when they were available through Tower. I think Kyosho America BLEW it when they discontinued distribution through Tower. The only place to get parts is their website really, and it isn't the easiest to use. Fix it Gil!
