Default Interested in Volcano EXP, few ???

I'm considering getting one of these, or the Himoto version. I have a Himoto Syclone, which is awesome, and it's the same as the redcat version. Anyway, how fast are these trucks? Are they fairly durable? Anything that wore out or failed sooner than expected? My buggy has had it's share of problems, but most of them were my fault. Immoveable objects are just that. I've been impressed with the other Redcats/Himoto's I've ran across. I just would like to go electric this time, which is something I know nothing about. Any input would be great. Thanks in advance.

Get it with the brushless system and you will really like it. Try giving www.tricountyracing.com a e-mail as he will do a package deal for them both!

I like package deals. I'm always looking to save a buck or ten. Thanks for the replies.

I sent an email to tricountyracing. Any other dealers want to email me a quote for a volcano exp and include a brushless upgrade? It'll ship to 38305 zip code. I'm not sure what colors are available, but I know the Himoto version has an awesome looking black with orange scheme. My email is [email protected]. Thanks.

I just got mine from clermontmotorsports.com. It's my first so I don't have anything to compare it to. I must say that I'm impressed. It's a tremendous value...Wuality looks good to me but I must ay that I have nothing to compare it to. It's fast...actually too fast for things that I wanted to do but I would like to upgrade to a motor with more torque. It gets "slow" in my long grass.

Can anyone suggest a motor with more torque. Will a brushless give me more torque?

more torque is an understatement, its insane: http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/s...s-setup/Detail
