its pretty nice, mamba 6800, 9.6 gp1100, AM 27mhz rceiver and remote, losi oil shocks, mip ball dif, white rims, proline offroad tires, slipper, 50s panel truck body, Hitec HS-55 servo, losi servo save kit, and a few other small things.
but...
im thinking i might just sell it, to put twords buying a rolling RC18B buggy chassis

and putting in a Quark 33A brushless ESC (performs better than mamba IMO)

C4 brushless 9200kv motor

and a 9.6v NIMH (ive got a bunch of GP1100 nimh cells, can make my own pack)

for basically the ultimate 1/18th car.

what do you guys think? should go for it, or just stick with my mini t?

Alright SHAUN, this is your last present for awhile.
You can PM again now.

Don't abuse it or I'll take that priviliage back away from you.

some how a whole row of mosfets in my mamba 25 esc burnt out. only had about 10min total driving time on the car too. everything was hooked up right, etc. bernie at castle creation said that this is a common problem about 1 every 10,000 units and that its the motor that burnt out the ESC, they are going to ship out a spankin new motor and ESC and a prepaid box to send my old one back, now that is some pimpin customer service.will have pics when parts come hopefully, maybe a jumping photo, that is of course if it doesnt do 10 cartwheels as soon as i hit the base of the jump (personal experience). i need to get some damn Allen wrenches though, god i hate those things.

EDIT: what parts should i save for next? its got all ball bearings, dual disk slipper MIP diff, mamba 6800, 14t metal pinion, hitec hs55 and losi servo saver kit, 9.6v (8 cell) gp1100 2/3a cells, fresh set of white rims and some fresh proline offroad tires that are looking good (havent even lost the shine yet!), got a 50s panel truck lid and some extended body posts. 16 and 14 awg all around, im thinking i could save and get a new chassis, possibly carbon fiber? i broke a stock plastic chassis already at the servo mounts. i have a feeling its going to look like midgetmans truck someday, lol. all broken then replaced with nice parts. when i break these things htough i always get replacment losi parts, maybe ill stope being cheap and upgrade. anyway im of for morning wake bake and then school
peace
