Nope, buying a used one probably wasnt the best idea . I really liked 4wd and i am probably going to get another one in the future, but i will be putting it together this time. Hopefully by winter i will make another appearance.

i'll be running either a jrx2 or an rc10 worlds car, most likely the jrx2, i just love that car.
i'll also be running a rc10t and maybe a frog in classics.
brushless 17.5's in the racers and sport tuned and lipo in the classic.
i have a 4wd too but 4 classes is too much, hell even three is a stretch.

i can't wait. i even schedualed my anniversary around it this year.

Hey Freddy, did you see the monster steel slug that Cavalieri was using on his B44 for the worlds? And that was with 5500mah batteries. I wonder what pistons and oil he was using for that heavy setup...

better yet, get a first gen hopper and install the crp front suspension kit intended for the futaba fx10, gives the hopper true double wishbone suspension.

here's a pic (mid assembly, had to make upper turnbuckles)

Thats Sweet, but having gotten 3rd, only behind 2 4WD buggies at Vonats with a HORNET (Thanks to Sam), all I needed was some real suspension, oil filled shocks and it wouldve been "game over".

I kinda wanted a classic 4WD, but that class just isnt as popular. Big Wig or something
