that's really small
you might want to look into 1/36ths like the Micro-T

As the expression goes, "if you have to ask, they're faster than you can drive them."

They sell the calssisc micro -t, the baja bug (diff. body), the desert truck (extended chassis, my fave), and the micro-raminator(monster truck)

tower hobbies, stormer hobbies are good sites. support your LHS if possible

I tried supporting my lhs but I got a brushless system online $100 cheaper then they wanted for it so it's makes it hard but I will compare the prices and if I can get them locally I will for sure

Thanks for you help....
