[hustler777]

did you get the threaded shock bodies and updated RX/BAT box?

[hakmazter]

It could be that the manuals got switched in the box. In theory, from an assembly standpoint, the cars are the exact same, but the steering is slightly more forward on the electric and of course, there are no trays, etc... If you have built an 1/8 before, there isn't anything too different from other brands.

[robertsmalibu]

Yeah no big deal. And yes it has treaded shocks. I like that all of the parts are neatly package and lettered and very nice looking parts too?&^

[hakmazter]

Yes, the packaging and everything has moved exponentially forward also.

[hustler777]

[robertsmustang]

Radical 621T engines and Cold Fusion fuel is the way to go ;)

[hustler777]

if cold fusion were still hand made than i'd be all over it...dunno about it being made by wild cat...will have to see how the first year being mass produced goes before i go back....thinking s&w for 2012...and the radical 621p is on my list of conciderable motors...i know scott has had really good luck with them

[expertbasser]

Trust ME, S&W Fuels is THE stuff!

[hakmazter]

Whenever anyone says S&W, I think Smith and Wesson.

[hustler777]

lol...i hear ya...well i've got my motor chosen....alpha a872 matched with the alpha 2090 pipe...figure with the insane power of the 872 matched with the light weight of the 1.5R...OOOOOOOOOOOWWEEE!!!!!..got them waiting for me to pick up from Nitro-North.com....then gotta wait for track time till march 9...heading down to joilet for the leisure hours nitro challenge with a few guys....CAN'T WAIT!!!!

[robertsmalibu]
