So how do I get those darn tyres of the rim. Not just one but 10 sets of 4.:batman:
Any tips or already posted thread nrs.

thanks

Soak them in Acetone and the glue will turn to goop. The tires come right off, but it's not so good for the foams. It's better that cutting them off. Baking them off it a pain and it stinks to high heaven.

Don't use Acetone with Pink compond tires, I'm not sure about Panther Clay but I know Pinks skrink up.

I have to say if you've been running the wrong foams then if you mount up with a the "right" foams then i better not even waste money buying the 2.0 T..:lol::sneaky:
YOur faster then anyone around here with the 1.0 with the wrong foams:weird:

Would someone please answer How are you going to refuel with this body? Fuelgun only or ????? Thanks

MikeFriery 01-10-2009 10:51 AM

there is no issue with fueling with the body.

you can use a bottle or gun just like any other truggy body.

pballer2777 01-10-2009 01:55 PM

does it matter how long the tires have been on the rims or will they seprate no matter what?

Just ordered mine today. Now its up to Horizon hobby to get these out on the target date.

Hope its worth the price tag !!! Since the 1.0 kit is only $300

And from the looks of it, they have corrected some of the issues that caused this truck to get so loose after a few gallons

JAMMINKRAZY 01-10-2009 05:15 PM

I just backordered mine form amain!!!!

Also ordered the 2.0 buggy and a couple upgrades for them.

-fioroni clutch stuff
-aluminum servo saver tops(2.0 version)
-losi aluminum steering servo horns

How does this truggy steer? I was wondering since the chassis is longer that it will make the truck push and be hard to rotate the rear around.
