the biggest expense was a new motor (novarossi P5X), pipe & JR Z9000T servo. I got some more King Headz stuff that it did not already have. I got some tools and a screw kit for it as well. I took the airtronics servo out of it and put it in my Jammin so I needed a new servo. I am not sure how reliable the Collari B7 is so I opted to get a new mill for it.

Hope to see you back on the dirt with an 1/8 scale soon!

Nice to find some other mugen lovers here. I cant wait to get this new truggy. Mugen always makes great buggys. We got to see this buggy in CA a couple weeks ago..
I have a Mugen buggy, and a Jammin CRT truggy.

Love the truggys..

I just pre-orderd the new mugen truggy from www.myrcsupply.com, there offering free shipping. Suppose to be shipping them between the 1st and 3rd of Aug.

anyone here from the Las Vegas area?

Interesting... Whats the model number for the one with a motor and pipe? Iv been calling all the shops around, and no one has a model number or defenit answer on the release of the prospec+enigne+pipe.

Is the engine suppose to be the Ninja .21 -B? or what? Ill prolly just run the JP2 pipe. Also is that include a header?

From the looks of things the standard truck will wear realy well, it looks like it will flex more then the pro-spec, but it should be much better then the standard mbx-5. As far as the mill is concerned, I have heard that the ninja pipe is realy the way to go. A jp2 just isn't a good fit for it. If it is the same quality of mill as the mt12 then I'm pretty sure that you won't be complaining come 5 gallons from now and it's still ripping just as hard as it did after a gallon.
