losi + specktrum will never let you down. personally. i would buy the xray 808 kit. but thats only because im a hardout racer :)

yep horizon has a review on it. a tip for these starter box's is push down slowly and the buggy will fire right up... alot of people just slam them down and then they jam...

yes i have driven it. top speed will be mainly what your engine puts out.
basically with any top end engine they will all pretty much be the same.

i dont know if it will... YOUR THE DRIVER. what i do know is adam drake the 2007? ifmar world champ driving the losi

jamesdas 07-31-2010 05:56 AM

the engine i am going to use is the standard .21 engine that comes in the pack

is it a good engine ?

yeeah it all depends on the driver, but say i am a good driver, well im ok, but say i was good vwould it be good ?
