Well, this is my first proper RC car unless you class xmods as one and it is truly awsome. The steering is great for something that size and it has a nice wieght to it. Compared to the buggy version this has oil filled shocks, ball bearings, slightly wider wheels and more groud clearence, stronger parts and the pants looking body :p When running about in the houes the taking off wasn't as good till it got to the hallway for a better top speed.
Couldnt wait until todays big day when it met dirt, gravel, dry mud and grass! :p Handles like a dream and the power is extremely exciteing (until i fork out for a mamba!). It does some nice drifting too! I'll need to get a proper rechargeable battery pack to replace my old AAs so thats next.
Heres some more outdoor pics from today.

So in over all it is a great buggy for the price I got it for ;)

I've had to edit your post to leave your images as links. They are too large and break the forum tables. When you have them resized to the appropriate size they can be brought back to visible images. ;)

Nice looking ride. :)

Drives awsome! You can really get that back end out even though its 4WD if ya drive it wavy! I was actually just out with it and I forgot to accelerate of the jump - result = nose plant :(
Yeah, better battery pack and some kind of brushless :D

Awesome! Don't the Mini Inferno's(electric ones) usually have the dummy engine head and exhaust tip? Or is that only the buggy. Sweet looking truck(is it a truck, or a truggy?)

Hey man, nice looking ST you got there (not as nice as my Buggy though, :lol: ). Have you got any upgrades (bearings) at all yet? Also, did you open up your diffs? I did on mine and noticed they were bone dry, so you may want to check into that.

Nah, that's just on the cooler looking buggy version :lol: .

$140 shipped from the States. Without shipping it was on special for $100 ;)
Great buggy for beginers, the layout is real nice and it can take a beating, like this... - Yesterday I was driving it off steps landing it perfectly, on the last set I didn't accelarate off them and it resulted in a nose dive shaving the top layer of my screw off that holds on the bumper and a couple of scratches :( Lol.

Thanks for the comments guys!
