Hey Macknitty, how do you like the Sprint? I was considering buying it just to turn into a buggy, but didn't know anything about the car, so I never did.
the stock version is alright, good takeoff with the 20t and the speed control handles the power well. one thing though, when racing on unprepared surfaces, the rear belt gets chewed up. and on a hard hit the the front wheels, the dogbone comes out. the stock diff grease is a little do thick, so regrease with thinner lube. other than that, it does great. i dont know how you are going to turn it into a buggy, electric i presume. the rs4 rally kit comes with a dirt sheild, with modifications to the chassis, it can fit.
