This one is a new design, and it doesn't come with any drivetrain/electronics besides the servo. I'm not saying it won't need some fiddling but it's nothing like the K.B Toy store version you're remembering.
I really want to see how the O.P. feels about the car when he gets it together since Iv'e been eyeballin' these ever since Carisma showed the first pics of it.
B.t.w. what turn Cobalt you putting in it? I used to race a M18 with the 16t version, LRP Quantum Comp. ESC and it was pretty fast. I'd have to imagine the D.Drive F14 is gonna be pretty quick with that motor.
