A little knowledge of starting nitro engines and of rc cars is essential- or some help from experienced users - once set up it goes like stink!
First time used stripped servo gear teeth- servo saver too tight to protect servo- now sorted. Exhaust gasket blew causing running probs by not pressurising fuel tank. Brake pads soon softened and disintegrated- maybe due to contamination by fuel or WD40?
BUT... it's a fantastic bit of kit and well worth the money...Needs regular maintenance as all high performance vehicles do.
BUY ONE !

The truck is one of a kind, when upgraded because it has got its own unique custom parts that stands out from the crowd. Also this truck is very strong once upgraded fully like mine because mistakes are going to happen and there are going to be a few crashes, so you don't want it to reck your day

this is such a good truggy for the money. its soo fast... i have clocked mine flat out about 30 mph! which is fast for an engine the size of this one. its so much smaller than i thought when i first opened it. great truggy but very fragile. i drove it into my foot by accident really slowly and it stripped the thread on the upper suspension arm! definately suggest the aluminum upgrades. plus the need metal gear diffs

super truggy tres maniable et rapide tres bon sauf qu il ni a pas de pare choc a l avant se qui fragilise beaucoup le model.

cette voiture est trés bien pour débuter dans le modélisme c'est une voiture peu chére et de bonne qualité.

quality car

wicked little truggy,got it going quite easily for a first timer,took it out with my mate whos got a savage and id say it was quicker(he dosent agree,but then his cost about £250 quid more,so he wouldnt)..anyway good price for good fun

This is my first nitro car and I would recommend this model for anyone who is starting out with nitro cars. Yes it is a little fragile, so either avoid crashing into solid objects like walls and concrete posts, or get the upgrade parts pack, which is excellent value for money. Now upgraded it has been fairly robust, i have lost count of the number of cart wheels it has done im my back garden and survived intact.

Just orderded a two speed gearbox as I broke the shaft on the original box, I can't wait to see how much quicker it will be when fitted, considering how fast the single gearbox was anyway!!

I bought this car for what i thought was a bargain price which was correct, it took me aroung 2 hours to break in the engine completely with the cost of 2 glow plugs (not expensive to replace) and now the engine runs superbly. The only problem is it is not good at taking crashes head on, i accendently did this and bent the front of the metal cover plate at the base of the car and had to replace it but the good thing is parts are relativly cheap. i would recommend this car for all lol lol lol

brought this car a year ago starting to mess around with it now ive modded mine should show pics soon. The starting of the car takes quite long but if you heat the engin ewith a hair dryer for like 2 - 6 minutes its a fast start. Only thing i had to buy a extra pull start as my old one broke and now a new bearing as i pulled too hard and one metal part inside the bearing came out. Overall Good!
