Hey Supa Mario, your BAJA is seriously one sweet ride! Good job on all the mods. As for the rest of us who are thinking of getting into the BAJA scene, why don't we consolidate and go for a group buy, probably can get a discount. Please add your name if you see yourself getting a BAJA in the next month or 2. I'll start....

Hi there, I would really love to see people joining us... but if you are gonna try group buy from local dist. I think they gonna burst your bubble... unless maybe you have a list of 20 ppl..... But still i hope they ca give u a good price

Anyway, if more people can join up it would be more fun too... but i simply cannot imagine more then six baja running together... bcos of its size... the probability of crashing would be about 40%.....lol

We fired 4 baja together... the sound of it is nothing less then race cars onl track day.... its really thunderous....

Definitely SS, stronger engine, tuned and updated parts.

The most important factor is that you get to built every parts yourself... in times of repair you will understand better and will not be in a lost. Most importantly, you do not need to worry about how well the kit has been assembled by the factory line.

Downside: Radio system, battery and better servo you have to buy.

yes, SS comes with a large servo for steering. not digital tho, but its does its job ok.

you need radio system, reciever batt & a normal size servo for throttle and brake.

if you can afford.... get a 5t.... but rtr. No need worry about building.

Hey Bros, yea certainly hope to bash with you guys soon. Since the servo question was raised,

1. May I ask if a digital steering servo is required?

2.Can I use the HPI servo and a digital servo for the throttle?

Bro Andre, will you be looking at getting a new radio or using existing one?

Thanks

Bro Andre, yes I too am looking at the SS Kit. So far Swan has the best price after checking around. Have you found any store selling it in the low 1400s?
