Default Micro-t

Well i just had my birthday party yesterday and i have $170 and still havent recieved money from a couple of other relatives and since i have all this money i have been looking into the micro-t. I like xmods but they are kinda unreliable and i want to get into hobbygrade. I have heard some good stuff about the micro-t and i was just wondering how it is stock cuz i wont be puttin upgrades into it for ahwile. I would like to know about how fast it is stock,Can it pull wheelies from a standstill stock,How does it handle stock, and how durable is it.Thanks in advance for any information.

1.) It's faster than a Xmod stock, and feels much faster than it is.
2.) It pulls wheelies until the battery is dead, which is ussually a good 20 minutes.
3.) It handles great. Doesn't Roll, turns tight. The diff is a bit tight from the begining, but after a few runs, it loosens up giving you a good turning radius.
4.) It's durable. Really good. Metal Drivetrain holds up. I've jumped it off 1foot high ramps, holds fine. It bottoms out and smacks the bottom sometimes, but nothing bad...

You can use the spring set for the EvoT for springs on the Micro-T. It's only $80, so it won't use all your money either.

I have been extensively researching micro-ts and from what I have read they're very durable except for the tie rods which break a lot. luckily you can fabricate virtually indestructible tie rods using zip-ties. I am going to buy a micro-t as soon as my xmods stuff sells on ebay. I can't wait!

I got my bearings from the my LHS, Losi-Factory Bearings. Spin forever...

I recomend that you get lock-nut type axels or pick up plenty of e-clips, when they pop off, they're gone... Just don't get the axels from Atomic Mods, expesnive...

Oh, and the Atomic BB (Brass Bushing, not bearing) is a good motor too.
