Are you going to race or just bash? Are you going to use a starter box?

I have put a Dynamite .12 on my GT2 and it is out of this world! I purchased my at my local hobby shop for $140. It has allowed me to be quite competitive at my local track. I'm still to new to the sport to have gotten good enough to battle with the big boys.

Stick to it mikie w you will get better unless you are an old fart like I! Racing is 90% the driver 10% the vehicle but with out racing I would give the hobby up as bashing is so boring. Matter of fact I all most gave up the hobby till I started to race.

Are you going to sanction race or just some club racing? If club racing what is your track rules? Sanction racing is limited to .12 size engines.

ya, the the ofna force .12 red is also a sleeper and its $60. not too punchy off the line but after 20k rpms it rips! they max out at about 35-38ks which is fanominal for a cheipo engine. they are also super reliable as they are ABC. had one run like new even after 3gallons.
