i got a charge n go from wallgreens like i had done many times before , but this one sucked . it has /well had a hardwierd motor and the worse gear mess and handling out of the 10 or so gcarge n gos ive had . i started off with a zz hub and gear swap , JB weled the rear end up so its smooth , and put removable motor tabs form a dead car . i has to screw around with the handling for about 2 hours but i got it fixed and then painted up a clear lxx supra . this was one of my more laid back projects , just did it to see if i could .

Oh yea, now I notice the wing holes in the back. Well if your like me you should have a pretty large supply of sploilers kicking around. Pain one up and use it!

if it's a small spoiler i'd go flat black for the racer look. a big one might stand out too much being black.

nice work

well the body got ruined by my dog ,agin... she ran into the table and nocked a hot soldering iron onto the hood , not good . so i just threw it away and used the cars pcb in my am set(dont like single cell 2 speeds , and wanted to keep that chassis for track raceing) . after a day or so i decied to put the ms pro pcb in it and dual cell it , its fast and due to the pull backs drives straigh ,even bosted .it would whellie somethimes when you hit the 'boost' so i put on a paper clip whellie bar . any way no more rambling on , heres the pics .
