Are the wheel lock nuts alone larger than the diameter of the Xmods whole tire and rim combination?

What surface will you be running this on? If it's concrete, those rear tires are going to go bald fairly quickly, I'm willing to bet.

Cheers,
Kyle.

Going to try to keep it on the ballfields, at this point I'm procrastinating even putting gas in it, a little too pricey to bash up.

amazing wish i had 1,000 dollars or how much it costed. and you should build a seat for kids so when they ask to go to the amusement park to ride roller coasters just buckle them down in the seat and drive that thing around and they'll think the amusement park is dumb after there first ride on it. just a suggestion i always wanted to try it but don't have money. but get some pics if you could of it jumping some dirt jumps i would love to see that.

It's a KSRC002. 29cc. I bought a dx2.0 radio for it and will probably get a tuned pipe but I have parts for a 1/5 on road in the mail to me and I am going to buy 2 more of the identical buggies for my boys in the next few weeks so most mods are on hold for a short while.
Any yea, that video is pretty wild.

5 minutes of fun and I broke it (the youngest said that this must be what they mean by "breaking it in". My own fault though, I took apart the shocks when I first got it and cracked the bottom mount on the shock. 24 pounds of wide open fury crashing down on that shock did not do it any good so now I'm waiting on the big brown santa sleigh to bring parts. It is definitely a beast though.

Just bought a 2nd one, hopefully by next week i can buy the 3rd and our collection for this year will be somewhat complete (although i bought most of the parts for a 1/5 on road car that i need to put together, hopefully that bug dosent hit me too hard).
