I pulled the trigger and picked me up a kit. I must say this buggy goes together very well! Diffs are very smooth and I am very impressed. I really like how the center diff is set up and how the brakes work (very easy to set bias). I got through bag G last night so I hope to have the roller finished tonight!!! Great work Tekno on the kit. I can only hope it drives like it builds.

I hate you.


I am about to rebuild mine using Arrow parts. I am sure it won't be the same though.

I have been thinking that the Ninja might be to much motor for this car though. This car Accelerates sooo hard. It has been suggested to me that this car would be a good candidate for an O.S. Speed .19, i am thinking about giving that a try.

im running the bo1a ninja and its awsome, you can run the .9/1.0 spring setup and the motor has no problem pulling out of a corner.

That is the spring setup I am running now. How are you guys keeping that motor alive? I am afraid to run mine much because once its gone I can't rebuild it.

I've been running a Fusion X3L and love it. Have had 4 of these motors and each has like 6+ gallons on it lol. Great power and smooth!

Not sure who suggested that, but I believe that speed 19 definitely would not have enough power to get this buggy around.

My clocked ninja felt pretty good in the buggy, but my Clocked 4BTT Made it feel 10x Better....And it's way faster then my ninja.

The car likes power!

About the tank issues…, the only one I had, was the clunk coming off the nipple inside the tank, but recently I noticed hit marks on the left steering post, definitely cause it by the tank, so I’m guessing broken tank issue is more related to the front chassis brace and chassis flex, instead of the tank itself, have some one noticed this?

Clunk coming off at the nipple was the only tank issue i gotten as well, Costed me 2nd at the amian, i'm happy cause first i thought my engine had some issues.

Other than that the only other issue i had was a bent rear center driveshaft, to be fair i lawn darted at the triple a few times and I've seen far worse from other buggy's doing the same thing. hammered it out for now till my spares for it and the truggy are in.
